Precisely Tracking Childhood Death
Little is known about the specific causes of neonatal and under-five childhood death in high-mortality geographic regions due to a lack of primary data and dependence on inaccurate tools, such as verbal autopsy. To meet the ambitious new Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 to eliminate preventable child mortality in every country, better approaches are needed to precisely determine specific causes...
متن کاملCARLOC: Precisely Tracking Automobile Position∗
Precise positioning of an automobile to within lane-level precision can enable better navigation and context-awareness. However, GPS by itself cannot provide such precision in obstructed urban environments. In this paper, we present a system called CARLOC for lanelevel positioning of automobiles. CARLOC uses three key ideas in concert to improve positioning accuracy: it uses digital maps to mat...

Reflections on death in childhood SIR,-During a regional survey of childhood asthma deaths I recently interviewed the parents of 24 children who had died from this cause. These deaths were all unexpected, most parents having been led to believe that asthma could not be fatal.

Almost anything worth while that I have learnt about death, I have learnt from those young people and from those-closest to them. Perhaps the most important thing has been the gradual recognition that however ill at ease and maladroit Western society is in the...
متن کاملPlaying Stochastic Games Precisely
We study stochastic two-player games where the goal of one player is to achieve precisely a given expected value of the objective function, while the goal of the opponent is the opposite. Potential applications for such games include controller synthesis problems where the optimisation objective is to maximise or minimise a given payoff function while respecting a strict upper or lower bound, r...
