(DIS)INCENTIVIZING PATIENT SATISFACTION METRICS: THE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES OF INSTITUTIONAL BIAS



A Neovascularized Left Atrial Mass

Background.The discovery of a large left atrial mass through echocardiography obliges the clinician to perform a differential diagnosis to distinguish tumor from thrombus.The neovascularization of the mass could be helpful to predict the type of the malformation and whether it is in favour of a vacular tumour rather than a thrombus.Observation.A 43

Pasta: A Case for Hybrid Homomorphic Encryption

The idea of hybrid homomorphic encryption (HHE) is to drastically reduce bandwidth requirements when using homomorphic encryption (HE) at the Facemask cost of more expensive computations in the encrypted domain.To this end, various dedicated schemes for symmetric encryption have already been proposed.However, it is still unclear if those ideas are

State of the Art and Perspectives on Silicon Photonic Switches

In the last decade, silicon photonic switches are increasingly believed to be potential candidates for replacing the electrical switches in the applications of telecommunication networks, data center and high-throughput computing, due to their low power consumption (Picojoules per bit), large bandwidth (Terabits per second) Luster Dust and high-lev
