Understanding and evaluating systems for open collaboration depends, in part, on appreciating their normative and institutional contexts. In this article, I examine press-public collaboration by tracing how and why news organizations both distance themselves from and depend on networked actors outside the newsroom to achieve professional and organizational goals. I situate contemporary press-public networks within infrastructure scholarship, review their relationship to models of the public sphere, and trace the motivations and assumptions embedded within news organizations' application programming interfaces, software toolkits that let those outside the newsroom access and repurpose journalistic data.

Background: Health systems have recently started to activate patient-facing application programming interfaces (APIs) to facilitate patient access to health data and other interactions. Objective: This study sought to ascertain health systems' understanding, strategies, governance, and organizational infrastructure around patient-facing APIs, as well as their business drivers and barriers, to facilitate national learning, policy, and progress toward adoption. Methods: We performed a content analysis of semistructured interviews with a convenience sample of 10 health systems known to be leading adopters of health technology, having either implemented or planning to implement patient-facing APIs. Results: Of the 10 health systems, eight had operational patient-facing APIs, with organizational strategy driven most by federal policy, the emergence of Health Records on iPhone, and feelings of ethical obligation. The two priority use cases identified were enablement of a patient's longitudinal health record and digital interactions with the health system. The themes most frequently cited as barriers to the increased use of patient-facing APIs were security concerns, an immature app ecosystem that does not currently offer superior functionality compared with widely adopted electronic health record (EHR)-tethered portals, a lack of business drivers, EHR vendor hesitation toward data sharing, and immature technology and standards. Conclusions: Our findings reveal heterogeneity in health system understanding and approaches to the implementation and use of patient-facing APIs. Ongoing study, targeted policy interventions, and sharing of best practices appear necessary to achieve successful national implementation.

As climate change and resource scarcity threaten global food security, greenhouse systems are becoming critical for sustainable agriculture. Advanced control, such as Model Predictive Control (MPC), effectively regulates temperature, humidity, and CO 2 to enhance crop growth and resource efficiency. However, the widespread adoption of such advanced control systems is limited by their lack of interpretability, as growers struggle to understand complex control decisions, particularly during rapid environmental changes. In this work, a Natural Language Generation (NLG) interface has been developed to bridge this gap and transform MPC control decisions into clear, actionable explanations for greenhouse growers. This interface integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) with greenhouse control systems and mathematical constraints, providing a step toward making AI-driven agriculture more accessible. This integration addresses the need for interpretable AI systems in modern agricultural applications. The system allows growers to interact with the control system, query decisions, and receive contextually relevant explanations through Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) mechanisms and instruction prompting techniques. The Adaptive RAG (ARAG) framework was evaluated using semantic similarity, information retrieval, and contextual relevance metrics, demonstrating a 12.1% improvement in BERTScore, over baseline methods. These results highlight the system's ability to deliver accurate, well-structured explanations without compromising control performance. By improving the interpretability and accessibility of AI-powered greenhouse automation, this research advances the development of sustainable greenhouse practices that can adapt to the challenges of climate change and resource scarcity. The proposed system represents a significant step toward transforming traditional greenhouse control into more interpretable solutions for modern agriculture.

Background To improve healthcare quality and empower patients, federal legislation requires nationwide interoperability of electronic health records (EHRs) through Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) application programming interfaces. Nevertheless, key barriers to patient EHR access—limited functionality, English, and health literacy—persist, impeding equitable access to these benefits. Objectives This study aimed to develop and evaluate a digital health solution to address barriers preventing patient engagement with personal health information, focusing on individuals managing chronic cardiovascular conditions. Methods We present LLMonFHIR, an open-source mobile application that uses large language models (LLMs) to allow users to “interact” with their health records at any degree of complexity, in various languages, and with bidirectional text-to-speech functionality. In a pilot evaluation, physicians assessed LLMonFHIR responses to queries on 6 SyntheticMass FHIR patient datasets, rating accuracy, understandability, and relevance on a 5-point Likert scale. Results A total of 210 LLMonFHIR responses were evaluated by physicians, receiving high median scores for accuracy (5/5), understandability (5/5), and relevance (5/5). Challenges summarizing health conditions and retrieving lab results were noted, with variability in responses and occasional omissions underscoring the need for precise preprocessing of data. Conclusions LLMonFHIR's ability to generate responses in multiple languages and at varying levels of complexity, along with its bidirectional text-to-speech functionality, give it the potential to empower individuals with limited functionality, English, and health literacy to access the benefits of patient-accessible EHRs.

Multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings play a critical role in cancer care by fostering collaboration between different health care professionals to develop optimal treatment recommendations. However, meeting scheduling and coordination rely heavily on manual work, making information-sharing and integration challenging. This results in incomplete information, affecting decision-making efficiency and impacting the progress of MDT. This project aimed to optimize and digitize the MDT workflow by interviewing the members of an MDT and implementing an integrated information platform using the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard. MDT process re-engineering was conducted at a central Taiwan medical center. To digitize the workflow, our hospital adopted the NAVIFY Tumor Board (NTB), a cloud-based platform integrating medical data using international standards, including Logical Object Identifiers, Names, and Codes, Systemized Nomenclature of Medicine-Clinical Terms, M-code, and FHIR. We improved our hospital's information system using application programming interfaces to consolidate data from various systems, excluding sensitive cases. Using FHIR, we aggregated, analyzed, and converted the data for seamless integration. Using a user experience design, we gained insights into the lung cancer MDT's processes and needs. We conducted 2 phases: pre- and post-NTB integration. Ethnographic observations and stakeholder interviews revealed pain points. The affinity diagram method categorizes the pain points during the discussion process, leading to efficient solutions. We divided the observation period into 2 phases: before and after integrating the NTB with the hospital information system. In phase 1, there were 83 steps across the 6 MDT activities, leading to inefficiencies and potential delays in patient care. In phase 2, we streamlined the tumor board process into 33 steps by introducing new functions and optimizing the data entry for pathologists. We conv

Classification with costly features (CwCF) is a classification problem that includes the cost of features in the optimization criteria. Individually for each sample, its features are sequentially acquired to maximize accuracy while minimizing the acquired features' cost. However, existing approaches can only process data that can be expressed as vectors of fixed length. In real life, the data often possesses rich and complex structure, which can be more precisely described with formats such as XML or JSON. The data is hierarchical and often contains nested lists of objects. In this work, we extend an existing deep reinforcement learning-based algorithm with hierarchical deep sets and hierarchical softmax, so that it can directly process this data. The extended method has greater control over which features it can acquire and, in experiments with seven datasets, we show that this leads to superior performance. To showcase the real usage of the new method, we apply it to a real-life problem of classifying malicious web domains, using an online service.

Interoperability in healthcare has traditionally been focused around data exchange between business entities, for example, different hospital systems. However, there has been a recent push towards patient-driven interoperability, in which health data exchange is patient-mediated and patient-driven. Patient-centered interoperability, however, brings with it new challenges and requirements around security and privacy, technology, incentives, and governance that must be addressed for this type of data sharing to succeed at scale. In this paper, we look at how blockchain technology might facilitate this transition through five mechanisms: (1) digital access rules, (2) data aggregation, (3) data liquidity, (4) patient identity, and (5) data immutability. We then look at barriers to blockchain-enabled patient-driven interoperability, specifically clinical data transaction volume, privacy and security, patient engagement, and incentives. We conclude by noting that while patient-driving interoperability is an exciting trend in healthcare, given these challenges, it remains to be seen whether blockchain can facilitate the transition from institution-centric to patient-centric data sharing.

The turbines used in rocket-engine applications are often partial-admission turbines, meaning that the flow enters the rotor over only a portion of the annulus. These turbines have been traditionally analyzed, however, assuming full-admission characteristics. This assumption enables the simulation of only a portion of the 360-deg annulus with periodic boundary conditions applied in the circumferential direction. Whereas this traditional approach to simulating the flow in partial-admission turbines significantly reduces the computational requirements, the accuracy of the solutions has not been evaluated or compared to partial-admission data. In the current investigation, both full-admission and partial-admission three-dimensional unsteady Navier-Stokes simulations were performed. for a partial-admission turbine designed and tested at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. The results indicate that the partial-admission nature of the turbine should be included in simulations to properly predict the performance and flow unsteadiness of the turbine.
