Auditory-Tactile Congruence for Synthesis of Adaptive Pain Expressions in RoboPatients
Misdiagnosis can lead to delayed treatments and harm. Robotic patients offer a controlled way to train and evaluate clinicians in rare, subtle, or complex cases, reducing diagnostic errors. We present RoboPatient, a medical robotic simulator aimed at multimodal pain synthesis based on haptic and auditory feedback during palpation-based training scenarios. The robopatient functions as an adaptive intermediary, capable of synthesizing plausible pain expressions vocal and facial in response to tac…

Palpation Alters Auditory Pain Expressions with Gender-Specific Variations in Robopatients
Diagnostic errors remain a major cause of preventable deaths, particularly in resource-limited regions. Medical training simulators, including robopatients, play a vital role in reducing these errors by mimicking real patients for procedural training such as palpation. However, generating multimodal feedback, especially auditory pain expressions, remains challenging due to the complex relationship between palpation behavior and sound. The high-dimensional nature of pain sounds makes exploration…

finally sinking into @…'s newly revived LCD program guide & savoring every dang page. astonishing work by @… & co., like '90s ray gun-style overload but readable. definitely need to snag a 2nd copy so i can hang the centerfold sched…

Revived) Honestly feels good to touch an old android.

KeBaB: $k$-mer based breaking for finding long MEMs
Long maximal exact matches (MEMs) are used in many genomics applications such as read classification and sequence alignment. Li's ropebwt3 finds long MEMs quickly because it can often ignore much of its input. In this paper we show that a fast and space efficient $k$-mer filtration step using a Bloom filter speeds up MEM-finders such as ropebwt3 even further by letting them ignore even more. We also show experimentally that our approach can accelerate metagenomic classification without signific…

Analog Computing for Signal Processing and Communications -- Part I: Computing with Microwave Networks
Analog computing has been recently revived due to its potential for energy-efficient and highly parallel computations. In this two-part paper, we explore analog computers that linearly process microwave signals, named microwave linear analog computers (MiLACs), and their applications in signal processing and communications. In Part I of this paper, we model a MiLAC as a multiport microwave network with tunable impedance components, enabling the execution of mathematical operations by reconfigur…
