The fast tracking of invasion spatial patterns of alien species is crucial for the implementation of preventive and management strategies of those species.Recently, a honeybee pest, the small hive beetle Aethina tumida (hereafter SHB), has been reported in Italy, where it colonized more than 50 apiaries in an area of about kaiser copy stands 300 km
BackgroundThe role of adjuvant radiotherapy in pancreatic product cancer following radical surgery remains a subject of of controversy.This study aimed to more accurately screen pancreatic patients who benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy.MethodsClinicopathologic characteristics of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer were collected from the Su
We give simpler, sparser, and faster algorithms for differentially private fine-tuning of large-scale pre-trained language models, which achieve the state-of-the-art privacy versus utility tradeoffs on many standard NLP tasks.We propose a meta-framework for this problem, inspired by the recent success of highly parameter-efficient methods for fine-
Abstract Background Previous studies have found that a school climate of more heteronormativity is associated with adverse effects on the mental health of LGB students.Accordingly, our aim was to assess the association between lower LGB prevalence in schools and unhealthy weight-control behaviors among LGB youth.Methods A cross-sectional, multileve
This paper reports a millimeter (mm)-wave type-II dual-loop phase-locked loop (PLL) with low-power and low-complexity design for improving jitter-power performance and power efficiency.Unlike the typical type-II single-loop PLL using product a tri-state phase-frequency detector (PFD) plus a charge pump (CP) that has several limits in high-speed ope
