TL;DR: A quantitative analysis shows improvement in rover slip prediction when considering thermal inertia based on data from the Curiosity rover, and supports the hypothesis that the consideration of thermal inertia improves mobility estimates for rovers on Mars.

TL;DR: Substantial inefficiencies were evident in the NHS orthodontic service, with 7.6% of treatments ending in discontinuation and 5.2% ending with residual need on treatment completion, which highlights the need to improve the outcome monitoring systems.

TL;DR: A method-ology to solve exploration tasks which computes the expected information gain, for each information source, from a sensor reading, and proposes a greedy searchalgorithm to collect information while accounting for costs such as driving, sensing and planning.

TL;DR: Although the rate of conversion from NDH to T2DM fell between 2010 and 2015, this is likely due to changes over time in the cut-off points for defining NDH, and more people of lower diabetes risk being diagnosed with NDH over time.

TL;DR: A method that applies connected component analysis to plan routes that keep robots continuously illuminated and on traversable slopes while reaching one or more goal locations to extend the lifespan, range, and scientific return of solar-powered robots exploring environments with changing but predictable lighting conditions, particularly those of the Moon and Mercury.
