Aesthetic rhinoplasty: Avoiding unfavourable results

Rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging surgical procedures in plastic surgery.It is not surprising that a significant number of patients end up with unfavourable outcomes.Many of these unfavourable outcomes could be the result of poor judgment and wrong decision making.Most frequently, the unfavourable outcome is the result of errors in surgica

Efficient Discretization of Optimal Transport

Obtaining solutions to optimal transportation (OT) problems is typically intractable when marginal spaces are continuous.Recent research has focused on approximating continuous solutions with discretization methods based on i.i.d.sampling, and this has shown convergence as the sample size increases.However, obtaining OT solutions with large sample

Preparation and characterization of thermal neutron sensitive lithium doped polystyrene plastic scintillators

BackgroundLithium-doped plastic scintillators possess the dual-mode detection capability for both fast and thermal neutrons, and combine the advantages of conventional plastic scintillators such as cost-effectiveness and the ability to fabricate in large sizes, have drawn much attention and shown great potential for thermal neutron detection in rec
