Global surface eddy mixing ellipses: spatio-temporal variability and machine learning prediction by Tian Jing, Ru Chen, Chuanyu Liu, Chunhua Qiu, Chunhua Qiu, Cuicui Zhang, Mei Hong

“…We also assessed the predictability of global mixing ellipses using machine learning algorithms, including Spatial Transformer Networks (STN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Random Forest (RF), with mean-flow and eddy- properties as features. All three models effectively represent and predict spatiotemporal variations, with the STN model, which incorporates an adaptive spatial attention mechanism, outperforming RF and CNN models in predicting mixing anisotropy. …”

An in-depth Analysis of the Degree of Implementation of Integrated Care for Diabetes in Primary Health Care in Cambodia by Vannarath Te, Sereyraksmey Long, Wim Van Damme, Por Ir, Edwin Wouters, Josefien van Olmen

“…Discussion: The in-depth analysis showed that the three care initiatives were not implemented in an integrated manner, with low implementation scores (1 or 2 out of 5) in all selected settings. The presence of health centre-based care was associated with higher scores for early detection and diagnosis and treatment in primary care services, while the presence of community-based care was related to structured collaboration and organisation of care. …”
