I propose a new method to study computationally difficult problems. I consider a new system, larger than the one I want to simulate. The original system is recovered by imposing constraints on the large system. I simulate the large system with the hard constraints replaced by soft constraints. I illustrate the method in the case of a ferromagnetic Ising model and in the case of a three-dimensional spin-glass model. I show that in both models the phases of the soft problem have the same properties as the phases of the original model and that the softened model belongs to the same universality class as the original one. I show that correlation times are much shorter in the larger soft constrained system and that it is computationally advantageous to study it instead of the original system. This method is quite general and can be applied to many other systems.

Background: Focus groups (FGs) are an established method in health research to capture a full range of different perspectives on a particular research question. The extent to which they are effective depends, not least, on the composition of the participants. This study aimed to investigate how published FG studies plan and conduct the recruitment of study participants.

This study aims to enhance positron emission tomography (PET) imaging systems by developing a continuous depth-of-interaction (DOI) measurement technique using a single-ended readout. Our primary focus is on reducing the number of readout channels in the scintillation detectors while maintaining accurate DOI estimations, using a high-pass filter-based signal multiplexing technique combined with artificial neural networks (ANNs). Approach: Instead of reading out all 64 signals from an 8×8 silicon photomultiplier array for DOI estimation, the proposed method technique reduces the signals into just four channels by applying high-pass filters with different time constants.

Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) and its severity are correlated with the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. Early detection and monitoring of LVSD are of utmost importance. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is an essential indicator for evaluating left ventricular function in clinical practice, the current echocardiography-based evaluation method is not avaliable in primary care and difficult to achieve real-time monitoring capabilities for cardiac dysfunction.

In this work, we propose a Fine-grained Hemispheric Asymmetry Network (FG-HANet), an end-to-end deep learning model that leverages hemispheric asymmetry features within 2-Hz narrow frequency bands for accurate and interpretable emotion classification over raw EEG data. In particular, the FG-HANet extracts features not only from original inputs but also from their mirrored versions, and applies Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters at a granularity as fine as 2-Hz to acquire fine-grained spectral information. Furthermore, to guarantee sufficient attention to hemispheric asymmetry features, we tailor a three-stage training pipeline for the FG-HANet to further boost its performance.
