March 2025
Medical University of South Carolina, 151B Rutledge Avenue, Charleston, SC 29425, USA. Tel 843-792-0091.
Aims: This study investigates the benefits and challenges of interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP) through an immersive clinical learning experience at the Medical University of South Carolina. The program included physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) students working with community-dwelling adults with Parkinson's disease.
Methods: 132 PT, 107 OT, and 6 SLP students (total n = 245) participated in a two-session-integrated clinical experience with individuals with Parkinson's disease and then completed a six-question reflection on the IP Parkinson experience.
FALCON: Feature-Label Constrained Graph Net Collapse for Memory-Efficient GNNs.
IEEE Trans Neural Netw Learn Syst
December 2024
Graph neural network (GNN) ushered in a new era of machine learning with interconnected datasets. While traditional neural networks can only be trained on independent samples, GNN allows for the inclusion of intersample interactions in the training process. This gain, however, incurs additional memory cost, rendering most GNNs unscalable for real-world applications involving vast and complicated networks with tens of millions of nodes (e.
