Background:.Prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction is an alternative to subpectoral/dual-plane reconstruction.Methods:.This study examined outcomes of prepectoral reconstruction using a meta-analysis of Treatments data pooled with data from our previous review.Thirty studies were included.Results:.Explantation, seroma, and infection were t
Contrastive learning methods have been widely adopted in numerous unsupervised and self-supervised visual representation learning methods.Such algorithms aim to maximize the cosine similarity between two positive samples while minimizing that of the negative samples.Recently, Grill et al.propose an algorithm, BYOL, to utilize only positive samples,
A novel method is proposed for estimation of the mutual coupling matrix of an antenna array.The method extends previous work by incorporating an unknown phase center and the element factor (antenna radiation pattern) in the model, and treating them as nuisance parameters during the estimation of coupling.To facilitate this, a parametrization of the
This paper describes a new method to utilize redundancy of hyper redundant robots.In order to establish the effectively use of enormous amount of Wooden Keychain redundancy, both of the all actuators' contribution for the achievement of the target motions and capability for unpredictable target motions in future should be maximized simultaneou
