It has been argued that the Randall-Sundrum (RS) phase transition rate is suppressed when the holographic theory corresponds to a large $N$ Yang-Mills and when the stabilizing field has a small mass. Here we argue that self-interactions can alleviate the latter suppression. We consider a cubic term in the bulk potentia...

Low x-ray dose is desirable in x-ray computed tomographic (CT) imaging due to health concerns. But low dose comes with a cost of low signal artifacts such as streaks and low frequency bias in the reconstruction. As a result, low signal correction is needed to help reduce artifacts while retaining relevant anatomical st...

In this paper, we present a novel approach to navigating endoluminal channels, specifically within the bronchial tubes, using Q-learning, a reinforcement learning algorithm. The proposed method involves training a Q-learning agent to navigate a simulated environment resembling bronchial tubes, with the ultimate goal of...

Photometric data were used to perform the first light curve analysis of the V0610 Vir binary system. Observations and analysis were done in the form of the Binary Systems of South and North (BSN) Project. We extracted the minima from our observations and compiled the literature, which was few. Therefore, we performed c...

Fine-grained classification often requires recognizing specific object parts, such as beak shape and wing patterns for birds. Encouraging a fine-grained classification model to first detect such parts and then using them to infer the class could help us gauge whether the model is indeed looking at the right details bet...

Demand Side Response (DSR) is a strategy that enables consumers to actively participate in managing electricity demand. It aims to alleviate strain on the grid during high demand and promote a more balanced and efficient use of (renewable) electricity resources. We implement DSR through discount scheduling, which invol...

A theoretical analysis of the finite element method for a generalized Robin boundary value problem, which involves a second-order differential operator on the boundary, is presented. If $\Omega$ is a general smooth domain with a curved boundary, we need to introduce an approximate domain $\Omega_h$ and to address issue...
