SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Block scheduling in practice: An optimal decomposition strategy for nonidentical operating rooms
Abstract We develop and implement a Master Surgery Schedule for a real‐life hospital, assigning operating room (OR) time to surgical specialties over a multi‐week horizon. Through action research, we identify a critical operational challenge: the issue of split blocks. Split blocks allow two specialties to share an OR on the same day—one in the morning,

Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity is a central, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial ecology. Although species pools and local assembly processes are believed to play non‐negligible roles in shaping the within‐community (α) and among‐community (β) diversity of microbial communities, their relative importance as ...

Abstract Thalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) represents an emerging therapeutic option for patients with focal drug‐resistant epilepsy who are ineligible for or have failed resective surgery. To optimize outcomes and guide DBS lead placement, thalamic stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has been proposed. This monocentric retrospective study aimed to
