CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This randomized clinical trial of an in-home, voice-activated CBT-I program among breast cancer survivors found that the intervention improved insomnia symptoms. Future studies may explore how this program can be taken to scale and integrated into ambulatory care. →
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that brief stabilization sessions are safe treatment options for acute PTSD (KCT0001918). →
INTRODUCTION: This study evaluates the efficacy of integrating percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation at the pericardium 6 (PC6) acupuncture point through a wearable acustimulation device with standard pharmacological prophylaxis to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) compared with pharmacological prophylaxis alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery. →
CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of HB-PrEP into a high-volume sexual health clinic seems to be feasible and acceptable to early RCT enrollees. This strategy has the potential to address individual and systemic barriers associated with initiating and persisting on PrEP, such as increasing sexual health agency and expanding clinical capacity to serve greater numbers of PrEP users. →
Google has just rolled out an exciting update to its Gemini models by releasing Gemini-1.5-Pro-002 and Gemini-1.5-Flash-002, offering production-ready versions, reduced pricing, and increased rate limits. The enhanced models deliver improved performance across a wide array of tasks, marking a significant step in making AI more accessible and practical for businesses and developers alike. Key… →
Solving sequential tasks requiring multiple steps poses significant challenges in robotics, particularly in real-world applications where robots operate in uncertain environments. These environments are often stochastic, meaning robots face variability in actions and observations. A core goal in robotics is to improve the efficiency of robotic systems by enabling them to handle long-horizon tasks, which… →
Knowledge graphs (KGs) are structured representations of facts consisting of entities and relationships between them. These graphs have become fundamental in artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and recommendation systems. By organizing data in this structured way, knowledge graphs enable machines to understand and reason about the world more efficiently. This reasoning ability is crucial for… →
Neural audio codecs have completely changed how audio is compressed and handled, by converting continuous audio signals into discrete tokens. This technique uses generative models trained on discrete tokens to produce complicated audio while maintaining the excellent quality of the audio. These neural codecs have significantly improved audio compression, making it possible to store and… →
Collective intelligence improves the effectiveness of groups, organizations, and societies by utilizing distributed cognition and coordination, often facilitated by technologies such as online prediction markets and discussion forums. While LLMs like GPT-4 introduce crucial discussions around understanding, ethics, and the potential for artificial general intelligence, their effects on collective intelligence processes—such as civic engagement and… →
