Chance is number 1.
Choice will always be number 2. But it's still our main preoccupation.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice! -Neil Peart, from Freewill lyrics

Knot complements decomposing into prisms
We describe four hyperbolic knot complements in $\mathbb{S}^3$, each of which covers a prism orbifold: the quotient of $\mathbb{H}^3$ by the action of a discrete group generated by reflections in the faces of a polyhedron that has the combinatorial type of a triangular prism. The prism orbifolds are rigid-cusped and contain compact, totally geodesic hyperbolic triangle sub-orbifolds; as a result, the knot complements covering them have hidden symmetries and contain closed, embedded, totally geo…

PAL: Designing Conversational Agents as Scalable, Cooperative Patient Simulators for Palliative-Care Training
Effective communication in serious illness and palliative care is essential but often under-taught due to limited access to training resources like standardized patients. We present PAL (Palliative Assisted Learning-bot), a conversational system that simulates emotionally nuanced patient interactions and delivers structured feedback grounded in an existing empathy-based framework. PAL supports text and voice modalities and is designed to scaffold clinical skill-building through repeated, low-co…

Overcoming Data Scarcity in Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy Image Segmentation
Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) is a powerful technique for imaging surfaces with atomic resolution, providing insight into physical and chemical processes at the level of single atoms and molecules. A regular task of STM image analysis is the identification and labelling of features of interest against a uniform background. Performing this manually is a labour-intensive task, requiring significant human effort. To reduce this burden, we propose an automated approach to the segmentation of…

Snagged this cool Neil box set at thrift the other day. Missing a disc but I couldn't leave it behind. Too damn cool. It has disc 1 and 2, which really has all the good stuff on them anyway.
