Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract The history of transducer development for medical imaging and therapeutic applications is closely coupled with the invention of transduction mechanisms and the development of transducer materials. Six transduction mechanisms can be identified as originating in the 19th century: Electromagnetic: In the presence of a static or quasi-static magnetic field, a current flowing in a conducting wire or plane results in a Lorentz force. This causes a displacement of the conducting surface. The inverse effect corresponds to an emf being induced in a conducting wire or plane that moves in a static or quasi-static magnetic field. Faraday in the United Kingdom and Henry in the United States discovered this around the same time (1831). Both the normal and inverse effects were made use of by Alexander Graham Bell [1] and described in his celebrated paper of 1876 on “Researches in Telephony.” Electrostatic: A time-varying Coulomb force acting on a pair of conducting planes is produced by a time-varying electric field.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
