Voice of Asia: Provision of Patient‐Centered Care in Oral Cavity Cancer: A Qualitative Study With Patients, Caregivers, and Healthcare Professionals in Five Asia‐Pacific Regions

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
The study identified key barriers to optimal patient‐centered care, including delayed diagnosis due to awareness and stigma‐related barriers among patients and caregivers, and opportunities to enhance multidisciplinary coordination. Resource limitations impacted nursing and psychosocial support, while access to support care varied across regions.

Random Oracles with(out) Programmability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper investigates the Random Oracle Model (ROM) feature known as programmability, which allows security reductions in the ROM to dynamically choose the range points of an ideal hash function. This property is interesting for at least two reasons: first, because of its seeming artificiality (no standard model hash function is known to support such

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...

Investing in Game‐Based Informal Digital Learning of English (IDLE): A Chinese‐Speaking Gaming Community

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a rapidly evolving sub‐field of computer‐assisted language learning, informal digital learning of English (IDLE) has become a significant catalyst for linguistic, affective, and pedagogical development among English as a second language (L2) learners.

Medical Knowledge Integration Into Reinforcement Learning Algorithms for Dynamic Treatment Regimes

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The goal of precision medicine is to provide individualised treatment at each stage of chronic diseases, a concept formalised by dynamic treatment regimes (DTR). These regimes adapt treatment strategies based on decision rules learned from clinical data to enhance therapeutic effectiveness.

How Do People Conceptualize Narcissism and Narcissistic Individuals?

open access: yesJournal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Although past decades have seen notable advances in the conceptualization and assessment of narcissism, scholarship examining lay conceptualizations of the construct remains limited. Method We report two studies utilizing bottom‐up, participant‐driven methodologies to examine public understandings of narcissism and narcissistic ...

Instantiating Random Oracles via UCEs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper provides a (standard-model) notion of security for (keyed) hash functions, called UCE, that we show enables instantiation of random oracles (ROs) in a fairly broad and systematic way. Goals and schemes we consider include deterministic PKE; message-locked encryption; hardcore functions; point-function obfuscation; OAEP; encryption secure for

Tests for Changes in Count Time Series Models With Exogenous Covariates

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We deal with a parametric change in models for count time series with exogenous covariates specified via the conditional distribution, i.e., with integer generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic models with covariates (INGARCH‐X).
