Cancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 5013-5024, December 2022., 2022 This study used the 2015 and 2018 National Health Interview Survey to investigate the impact of the 2017 U.S. Multi‐Society Task Force's race‐specific guidelines on colorectal cancer screening rate among young African Americans. Compared to young non‐African Americans, the adjusted predicted probability of colorectal cancer screening for young African ...

Massively parallel computation of globally optimal shortest paths with curvature penalization
Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 35, Issue 2, 25 January 2023., 2023 Abstract We address the computation of paths globally minimizing an energy involving their curvature, with given endpoints and tangents at these endpoints, according to models known as the Reeds‐Shepp car (reversible and forward variants), the Euler‐Mumford elasticae, and the Dubins car. For that purpose, we numerically solve degenerate variants of the

An energy‐frequency parameter for earthquake ground motion intensity measure
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 271-284, February 2023., 2023 Abstract A novel scalar ground motion intensity measure (IM), termed the energy‐frequency parameter, is proposed based on the Hilbert‐Huang transform. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed IM, the correlation analysis between the engineering demand parameter (EDP) and energy‐frequency parameter is performed using 1992 recorded ground motions ...
