A single-photon detection using a Si-based two-dimensional ͑2D͒ multiple-tunnel-junction field-effect transistor ͑FET͒ is reported. The single photon is detected as a random telegraph signal ͑RTS͒ in the single-hole-tunneling current regime. The frequency of RTS events depends on the light wavelength and intensity, indicating that the RTS occurs due to the single-photon absorption in the Si dots form...

 Objective: To evaluate the association of base deficit (BD) with mortality in traumatized children, and to assess this association in a subgroup of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).   Methods: In this cross-sectional study performed prospectively on a convenience sample of patients under 16 years of age with trauma presenting to an academic lev...

BACKGROUND Knee reinjury after ACL reconstruction is common and increases the risk of osteoarthritis. There is sparse evidence to guide return to sport (RTS) decisions in this population. OBJECTIVES To assess the relationship between knee reinjury after ACL reconstruction and (1) return to level I sports, (2) timing of RTS and (3) knee function prior to return. METHODS 106 patients who part...

Models of endogenous growth have not been able to account for the variety of empirically observed distributional properties of the returns to innovation, in part, because of the limitations necessarily imposed on competition to cope with increasing returns to scale. Exponential growth, fat tails, Pareto–Levy distributed upper tails, and upper value outliers, are associated with increasing retur...

Real-Time Strategy (RTS) games have shown to be very resilient to standard adversarial tree search techniques. Recently, a few approaches to tackle their complexity have emerged that use game state or move abstractions, or both. Unfortunately, the supporting experiments were either limited to simpler RTS environments (μRTS, SparCraft) or lack testing against state-of-the-art game playing agents...

The authors examined possible differences in left- and right-handers on bimanual reaction times to centralized visual stimuli. Eighty participants (n = 40 in each group of left- and right-handers) were tested on unimanual and bimanual reaction time (RT) tasks. Consistently across the 2 groups, the dominant-hand RT was faster, on average, than the nondominant-hand RT, and unimanual RTs were fast...
