An Investigation of Mentor Characteristics Associated with Mentor Satisfaction with Mentor Relationships

Vaginal mesh extrusion associated with use of Mentor transobturator sling.

OBJECTIVES To describe my experience of vaginal mesh extrusion using the monofilament polypropylene transobturator sling, the Mentor ObTape. The Mentor ObTape was the first transobturator sling developed as an alternative to the retropubic commercially available suburethral slings for providing mid-urethral support as treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. METHODS Thirty patients un...

Robust Multi-objective Learning with Mentor Feedback

We study decision making when each action is described by a set of objectives, all of which are to be maximized. During the training phase, we have access to the actions of an outside agent (“mentor”). In the test phase, our goal is to maximally improve upon the mentor’s (unobserved) actions across all objectives. We present an algorithm with a vanishing regret compared with the optimal possibl...

Enhanced MENTOR Algorithm with ECMP Routing Enable

MENTOR (Mesh Network Topological Optimization and Routing) is an efficient heuristic design algorithm network that assigns traffic flow while selecting links to be installed. MENTOR is suitable to design networks categorized as virtual circuit packet switching such as Frame Relay, ATM and MPLS networks. However, MENTOR cannot be directly applied to datagram packet switching networks such as pur...

Get yourself a mentor.

The article by Stamm and Buddeberg-Fischer underscores the importance of mentors in medical education. These researchers followed a cohort of Germanspeaking Swiss resident doctors during postgraduate specialty training. The researchers found a compelling relationship between having one or more mentors and both subjective and objective career success. Previous studies have also reported positive...
