Traditional Chinese medicine with its effectiveness should also have stemmed out from such logic system. This article aims to rearticulate the underlying lucid multi-dimensional logic system, which faded in obscurity only because of time-out loss of the mid-right concept. Retracing this past tacit but important concept could uncover a multi-dimensional system over a point relating to all matters while capturing the central core of the matter. The seemingly unmanageable multidimensional logic was strengthened by verification processes which affirmed its further extensions, and made up the language of the people, the concepts of yin-yang(阴阳), and the development of extensions of Ba Gua(八卦) derivatives, which furthered the interpretation of the space-time properties and Chinese medicine.展开更多

文摘Previous bidirectional quantum private comparison(BQPC)protocols cannot meet the requirements in some special application scenarios,where only one party needs to obtain the comparison results without a third party(TP),such as scenarios for authority surveys or healthcare data sharing.In addition to this,the BQPC protocol has the potential of information leakage in multiple comparisons.Therefore,we design a new unidirectional quantum private comparison(UQPC)protocol based on quantum private query(QPQ)protocols with ideal database security and zero failure probability(IDS-ZF),for the reason that they have excellent unidirectionality and security.Concretely,we design a UQPC protocol based on Wei et al.’s work[IEEE Transactions on Computers 672(2017)]and it includes an authentication process to increase the resistance to outside attacks.Moreover,we generalize the protocol and propose a general model that can transform a QPQ protocol with or without the IDS-ZF property into a secure UQPC protocol.Finally,our study shows that protocols using our model are secure,practical,and have the IDS-ZF property.
文摘BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)is an essential diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for pancreatobiliary disorders.However,few large-scale studies from South Asia have examined long-term ERCP outcomes,particularly using established quality benchmarks.AIM To evaluate ERCP indications,success rates,complications,and quality performance at a high-volume tertiary care center in Pakistan over a 17-year period.METHODS This retrospective study analyzed 13215 ERCP procedures performed between 2006 and 2023.Data included demographics,indications,cannulation rates,complications,and pediatric cases.Findings were assessed against American Society of Gastroenterology/European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy quality indicators.RESULTS Biliary ERCP accounted for 93.1%of procedures;choledocholithiasis was the most common indication(40%).Cannulation success was 93.9%for biliary and 94.2%for pancreatic ERCP.Pediatric ERCP comprised 4%of cases,mostly for stones and chronic pancreatitis.Bleeding(1.7%)and post-ERCP pancreatitis(2.3%)were the most frequent complications.Performance met or exceeded most American Society of Benchmarks.CONCLUSION This study offers insight into nearly two decades of ERCP practice within a public sector hospital.Our experience echoes the quality and efficiency of ERCP not previously available in Pakistan.As healthcare systems in resourcelimited sectors expand,our findings serve as a reference point.Continued training and quality improvement studies can further enhance ERCP effectiveness in the region and beyond.

文摘The NEutron Detector Array(NEDA)is designed to be coupled to gamma-ray spectrometers to enhance the sensitivity of the setup by enabling reaction channel selection through counting of the evaporated neutrons.This article presents the implementation of a double trigger condition system for NEDA,which improves the acquisition of neutrons and reduces the number of gamma rays acquired.Two independent triggers are generated in the double trigger condition system:one based on charge comparison(CC)and the other on time-of-flight(TOF).These triggers can be combined using OR and AND logic,offering four distinct trigger modes.The developed firmware is added to the previous one in the Virtex 6 field programmable gate array(FPGA)present in the system,which also includes signal processing,baseline correction,and various trigger logic blocks.The performance of the trigger system is evaluated using data from the E703 experiment performed at GANIL.The four trigger modes are applied to the same data,and a subsequent offline analysis is performed.It is shown that most of the detected neutrons are preserved with the AND mode,and the total number of gamma rays is significantly reduced.Compared with the CC trigger mode,the OR trigger mode allows increasing the selection of neutrons.In addition,it is demonstrated that if the OR mode is selected,the online CC trigger threshold can be raised without losing neutrons.

文摘Tailings produced by mining and ore smelting are a major source of soil pollution.Understanding the speciation of heavy metals(HMs)in tailings is essential for soil remediation and sustainable development.Given the complex and time-consuming nature of traditional sequential laboratory extraction methods for determining the forms of HMs in tailings,a rapid and precise identification approach is urgently required.To address this issue,a general empirical prediction method for HM occurrence was developed using machine learning(ML).The compositional information of the tailings,properties of the HMs,and sequential extraction steps were used as inputs to calculate the percentages of the seven forms of HMs.After the models were tuned and compared,extreme gradient boosting,gradient boosting decision tree,and categorical boosting methods were found to be the top three performing ML models,with the coefficient of determination(R^(2))values on the testing set exceeding 0.859.Feature importance analysis for these three optimal models indicated that electronegativity was the most important factor affecting the occurrence of HMs,with an average feature importance of 0.4522.The subsequent use of stacking as a model integration method enabled the ability of the ML models to predict HM occurrence forms to be further improved,and resulting in an increase of R^(2) to 0.879.Overall,this study developed a robust technique for predicting the occurrence forms in tailings and provides an important reference for the environmental assessment and recycling of tailings.
文摘This paper focuses on the service management for digitally disadvantaged groups in Chinese and American public libraries.Utilizing a comparative analysis method,it explores the differences and dilemmas between the two countries in terms of policy support,resource allocation,service models,and librarian training.The research finds that the United States has established a relatively comprehensive legal guarantee system and diverse funding channels,but recent federal policy fluctuations pose risks to project sustainability.Although China has made significant progress in equalizing services,it still faces structural challenges such as insufficient institutional guarantees and uneven resource allocation.Based on the comparative analysis,this paper proposes strategic suggestions including establishing a four-dimensional support system of"Law-Resources-Technology-Personnel"and promoting a"Digital Inclusion Partnership"model,aiming to provide references for Chinese public libraries to improve services for digitally disadvantaged groups.

文摘Driven by rapid technological advancements and economic growth,mineral extraction and metal refining have increased dramatically,generating huge volumes of tailings and mine waste(TMWs).Investigating the morphological fractions of heavy metals and metalloids(HMMs)in TMWs is key to evaluating their leaching potential into the environment;however,traditional experiments are time-consuming and labor-intensive.In this study,10 machine learning(ML)algorithms were used and compared for rapidly predicting the morphological fractions of HMMs in TMWs.A dataset comprising 2376 data points was used,with mineral composition,elemental properties,and total concentration used as inputs and concentration of morphological fraction used as output.After grid search optimization,the extra tree model performed the best,achieving coefficient of determination(R2)of 0.946 and 0.942 on the validation and test sets,respectively.Electronegativity was found to have the greatest impact on the morphological fraction.The models’performance was enhanced by applying an ensemble method to the top three optimal ML models,including gradient boosting decision tree,extra trees and categorical boosting.Overall,the proposed framework can accurately predict the concentrations of different morphological fractions of HMMs in TMWs.This approach can minimize detection time,aid in the safe management and recovery of TMWs.
