293 The case for investigating the palliative needs of children in foster care: A call to action by Rebecca Singer Cohen, Rebecca Wright

“…Informal interviews will be conducted with subject matter experts (pediatrics, palliative care, foster care) to determine the legitimacy and urgency of the problem. Results/Anticipated Results: Health inequities among children in foster care and children with medical complexity (CMC) suggest a strong likelihood of unmet palliative care needs for CMC in foster care; however, no literature or data describe the scope and severity, and few insights support development of safe and supportive interventions to meet these needs. …”

On the Synthesis of Planar Graphs with Given Properties by Volodymyr Petrenjuk, Dmytro Petreniuk

“…To the graphs thus obtained, minimal with respect to the operation of removing an arbitrary edge or point from M, we attach a simple star or quasi-star with a center – a planar graph by pairwise identification of hanging vertices with points of the set M to points of the graph G. The tangent problem was considered in [6]. In [7, 8], a similar problem of covering a set of vertices by no more than a given k – number of cycles-boundaries of 2-cells was considered, and the number of minimal planar graphs was calculated for k=3, for an arbitrary k we will have an algorithm for constructing minimal graphs with exponential time complexity. …”

Ambiguity Analysis and Resolution for Phase-Based 3D Source Localization under Given UCA by Zhen Liu, Xin Chen, Zhenhua Wei, Tianpeng Liu, Linlin Li, Bo Peng

“…Under uniform circular array, by employing some algebraic schemes to exploit the phase information of receiving data and further estimate the source’s three-dimensional (3D) parameters (azimuth angle, elevation angle, and range), a series of novel phase-based algorithms with low computational complexity have been proposed recently. However, when the array diameter is larger than source’s half-wavelength, these algorithms would suffer from phase ambiguity problem. …”
