Adaptive Group Shuffled Decoding for LDPC Codes
We propose new grouping methods for group shuffled (GS) decoding of both regular and irregular low-density parity check cods. These methods are independent of the check-to-variable message formula used.

Acute Vagus Nerve Stimulation Facilitates Short Term Memory and Cognitive Flexibility in Rats
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) causes the release of several neuromodulators, leading to cortical activation and deactivation. The resulting preparatory cortical plasticity can be used to increase learning and memory in both rats and humans.

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Solving the minimum labelling spanning tree problem using hybrid local search [PDF]
Given a connected, undirected graph whose edges are labelled (or coloured), the minimum labelling spanning tree (MLST) problem seeks a spanning tree whose edges have the smallest number of distinct labels (or colours).
