Staffing under Taylor's Law: A Unifying Framework for Bridging Square-root and Linear Safety Rules [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Staffing rules serve as an essential management tool in service industries to attain target service levels. Traditionally, the square-root safety rule, based on the Poisson arrival assumption, has been commonly used. However, empirical findings suggest that arrival processes often exhibit an ``over-dispersion'' phenomenon, in which the variance of the ...

The anterior nucleus of the thalamus plays a role in the epileptic network
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 2010-2024, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives We investigated both the metabolic differences and interictal/ictal discharges of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) in patients with epilepsy to clarify the relationship between the ANT and the epileptic network. Methods Nineteen patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent stereoelectroencephalography were studied ...

Staffing by Design: A Methodology for Staffing Reference [PDF]
Public Services Quarterly, 2012 The growth in number and kind of online reference services has resulted in both new users consulting library research services as well as new patterns of service use. Staffing in-person and virtual reference services desks adequately requires a systematic analysis of patterns of use across service points in order to successfully meet fluctuating patron

Solving Large-scale Systems of Random Quadratic Equations via Stochastic Truncated Amplitude Flow [PDF]
, 2016 A novel approach termed \emph{stochastic truncated amplitude flow} (STAF) is developed to reconstruct an unknown $n$-dimensional real-/complex-valued signal $\bm{x}$ from $m$ `phaseless' quadratic equations of the form $\psi_i=|\langle\bm{a}_i,\bm{x}\rangle|$. This problem, also known as phase retrieval from magnitude-only information, is \emph{NP-hard}

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Mode-coupling theory of the stress-tensor autocorrelation function of a dense binary fluid mixture [PDF]
Physical Review A, {\bf 46}, 4942 (1992), 2005 We present a generalized mode-coupling theory for a dense binary fluid mixture. The theory is used to calculate molecular-scale renormalizations to the stress-tensor autocorrelation function (STAF) and to the long-wavelength zero-frequency shear viscosity. As in the case of a dense simple fluid, we find that the STAF appears to decay as $t^{-3/2}$ over
