Introduction: The sequential parallel comparison design has emerged as a valuable tool in clinical trials with high placebo response rates. To further enhance its efficiency and effectiveness, adaptive strategies, such as sample size adjustment and allocation ratio modification can be employed.
Methods: We compared the performance of Jennison and Turnbull's method and the Promising Zone approach for sample size adjustment in a two-phase sequential parallel comparison design study.

With advancements in autonomous driving technology, the coupling of spatial paths and temporal speeds in complex scenarios becomes increasingly significant. Traditional sequential decoupling methods for trajectory planning are no longer sufficient, emphasizing the need for spatio-temporal joint trajectory planning. The Constrained Iterative LQR (CILQR), based on the Iterative LQR (ILQR) method, shows obvious potential but faces challenges in computational efficiency and scenario adaptability.

In this paper, a novel particle filter based on one-step smoothing is proposed for nonlinear systems with random one-step delay and missing measurements. Such problems are commonly encountered in networked control systems, where random one-step delay and missing measurements significantly increase the difficulty of dynamic state estimation. The particle filter is a nonlinear filtering method based on sequential Monte Carlo sampling.

Welding-induced residual stress has the capacity to significantly compromise the integrity of mechanical components. Its minimization therefore plays a critical role in the selection of process parameters during the welding process. Friction stir welding is a useful joining technique to weld many materials that are not amenable to the traditional welding techniques.

Background: In medical education, enhancing thinking skills is vital. The Virtual Diagnosis and Treatment Platform (VP) refines medical students' diagnostic abilities through interactive patient interviews (simulated patient interactions). By analyzing the questions asked during these interviews, the VP evaluates students' aptitude in medical history inquiries, offering insights into their thinking capabilities.
