Barriers to epilepsy care: Measuring the treatment gap in rural and peri-urban districts in Ghana
Background Epilepsy is an easily treatable condition, but a substantial treatment gap persists, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. We quantified the epilepsy treatment gap in Ghana. Materials and methods We conducted a three-stage population-based study in the Shai...

A Target-Feasibility Branch-and-Prune Algorithm for Nonconvex Constrained Optimization
We present a branch-and-prune algorithm for nonconvex constrained optimization in which each box is treated as a target-level feasibility problem and solved through an extended Lagrangian saddle-point formulation. The current incumbent objective value $U$ is incorporated directly...
