Improving Surgical Risk Prediction Through Integrating Automated Body Composition Analysis: a Retrospective Trial on Colectomy Surgery
Objective: To evaluate whether preoperative body composition metrics automatically extracted from CT scans can predict postoperative outcomes after colectomy, either alone or combined with clinical variables or existing risk predictors. Main outcomes and measures: The primary outcome was the predictive performance for 1-year all-cause mortality following colectomy. A Cox proportional hazards model with 1-year follow-up was used, and performance was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index…

Exploring the change in scientific readability following the release of ChatGPT
The rise and growing popularity of accessible large language models have raised questions about their impact on various aspects of life, including how scientists write and publish their research. The primary objective of this paper is to analyze a dataset consisting of all abstracts posted on arXiv.org between 2010 and June 7th, 2024, to assess the evolution of their readability and determine whether significant shifts occurred following the release of ChatGPT in November 2022. Four standard re…

CPU-Based Layout Design for Picker-to-Parts Pallet Warehouses
Picker-to-parts pallet warehouses often face inefficiencies due to conventional layouts causing excessive travel distances and high labor requirements. This study introduces a novel layout design inspired by CPU architecture, partitioning warehouse space into specialized zones, namely Performance (P), Efficiency (E), and Shared (S). Discrete-event simulation is used to evaluate this design against traditional rectangular (random and ABC storage) and Flying-V layouts. Results demonstrate signifi…

Human-Centered Explainability in Interactive Information Systems: A Survey
Human-centered explainability has become a critical foundation for the responsible development of interactive information systems, where users must be able to understand, interpret, and scrutinize AI-driven outputs to make informed decisions. This systematic survey of literature aims to characterize recent progress in user studies on explainability in interactive information systems by reviewing how explainability has been conceptualized, designed, and evaluated in practice. Following PRISMA gu…
