- Aims. The aim of this study is to provide radiative data for neutral and singly ionised silicon, in particular for the first experimental oscillator strengths for near-infrared Si I lines. In addition, we aim to perform atomic structure calculations both for neutral and singly ionised silicon while including lines from highly excited levels. Methods. We performed large-scale atomic structure calculations with the relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock method using the GRASP2K package to determine log(ð A) values of Si I and Si II lines, taking into account valence-valence and core-valence electron correlation. In addition, we derived oscillator strengths of near-infrared Si I lines by combining the experimental branching fractions with radiative lifetimes from our calculations. The silicon plasma was obtained from a hollow cathode discharge lamp, and the intensity-calibrated high-resolution spectra between 1037 and 2655 nm were recorded by a Fourier transform spectrometer. Results. We provide an extensive set of accurate experimental and theoretical log(ðA) values. For the first time, we derived 17 log(ðA) values of Si I lines in the infrared from experimental measurements. We report data for 1500 Si I lines and 500 Si II lines. The experimental uncertainties of our A-values vary between 5% for the strong lines and 25% for the weak lines. The theoretical log(ð A) values for Si I lines in the range 161 nm to 6340 nm agree very well with the experimental values of this study and complete the missing transitions involving levels up to 3s23p7s (61 970 cm' 1). In addition, we provide accurate calculated log(ðA) values of Si II lines from the levels up to 3s27f (122 483 cm' 1) in the range 81 nm to 7324 nm.

- This study pools published data to describe the increase in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from very premature neonates to young adults. The data comprises measured GFR (using polyfructose, Cr-51-EDTA, mannitol or iohexol) from eight studies (n=923) and involved very premature neonates (22 weeks postmenstrual age) to adulthood (31 years). A nonlinear mixed effects approach (NONMEM) was used to examine the influences of size and maturation on renal function. Size was the primary covariate, and GFR was standardized for a body weight of 70 kg using an allometric power model. Postmenstrual age (PMA) was a better descriptor of maturational changes than postnatal age (PNA). A sigmoid hyperbolic model described the nonlinear relationship between GFR maturation and PMA. Assuming an allometric coefficient of 3/4, the fully mature (adult) GFR is predicted to be 121.2 mL/min per 70 kg [95% confidence interval (CI) 117-125]. Half of the adult value is reached at 47.7 post-menstrual weeks (95% CI 45.1-50.5), with a Hill coefficient of 3.40 (95% CI 3.03-3.80). At 1-year postnatal age, the GFR is predicted to be 90% of the adult GFR. Glomerular filtration rate can be predicted with a consistent relationship from early prematurity to adulthood. We propose that this offers a clinically useful definition of renal function in children and young adults that is independent of the predictable changes associated with age and size.

Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Every year worldwide more than one million people die and a further 50 million people are injured in traffic accidents. Therefore, the development of car safety features that actively support the driver in preventing accidents, is of utmost importance to reduce the number of injuries and fatalities. However, to establish this support it is necessary that the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) understands the driver’s intended behavior in advance. The growing variety of sensors available for vehicles together with improved computer vision techniques, hence led to increased research directed towards inferring the driver’s intentions. This article reviews 64 driver intention recognition studies with regard to the maneuvers considered, the driving features included, the AI methods utilized, the achieved performance within the presented experiments, and the open challenges identified by the respected researchers. The article provides a high level analysis of the current technology readiness level of driver intention recognition technology to address the challenges to enable reliable driver intention recognition, such as the system architecture, implementation, and the purpose of the technology.
