An Ownership Verification Mechanism Against Encrypted Forwarding Attacks in Data-Driven Social Computing

Data-driven deep learning has accelerated the spread of social computing applications. To develop a reliable social application, service providers need massive data on human behavior and interactions. As the data is highly relevant to users...

Topological Data Analysis: Foundations, Algorithms, and Emerging Applications

Topological data analysis (TDA) has evolved into a flexible and robust paradigm for obtaining qualitative, geometry-inspired insights from high-dimensional, noisy, and complex data. Grounded in algebraic topology, geometry, statistics, and ...

Empirical Evaluation of Invariances in Deep Vision Models

The ability of deep learning models to maintain consistent performance under image transformations-termed invariances, is critical for reliable deployment across diverse computer vision applications. This study presents a comprehensive empi...

Rehabilitation programme for post-stroke lateropulsion including exoskeleton-assisted training: rationale and single-case experimental design protocol.

Culturally safe care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples with dementia in Trouwerner/Lutruwita (Tasmania): protocol for a scoping review.

Automation of urban technological census. The historical centre of Bethlehem

The research proposal reports the outcomes of a research track concerning the automation of the architectural census of technological elements in urban environments, aiming at the development of a monitoring and management system for the bu...

Life prediction model of feedback rod in electro-hydraulic servo valve

Abstract Metallic elastic elements serve as critical structural components in advanced electro mechanical assemblies, where cyclic loading induces progressive rigidity reduction. Within electro-hydraulic servo valves (EHSV), the feedback me...

Epistemic frontiers and the distinction between causality, information, and predictability in pattern recognition

Abstract High predictive accuracy is frequently misinterpreted as evidence of causal understanding or population-level signal. Models can exploit spurious correlations, confounding, or protocol-induced artefacts, while post-hoc explanations...

Leveraging Cloud Technology for Personalized Multiple Sclerosis Care: A Comprehensive Data Management and Visualization Approach

This project develops a cloud-based solution for securely managing clinical data and patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) for multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Utilizing REDCap for data collection, we incorporated clinical outcomes and PROMs f...

IoT Device Identification Using Directional Packet Length Sequences and 1D-CNN

With the large-scale application of the Internet of Things (IoT), security issues have become increasingly prominent. Device identification is an effective way to secure IoT environment by quickly identifying the category or model of device...

Comparing Clinical Metadata Fusion Strategies for Diabetic and Hypertensive Retinopathy Classification

Structured clinical variables may complement fundus photographs, but the most appropriate point at which to integrate them into a retinal foundation model remains uncertain. This study compares an image-only baseline with three strategies f...

Design and Pilot Feasibility of a Low-Cost Wearable for Mexican Sign Language in Inclusive Higher Education

A substantial number of students with hearing impairments are enrolled in higher education, motivating the development of inclusive assistive technologies that reduce communication barriers. This study developed and evaluated a prototype el...

PERMEPSY: a multicentre, randomized, double-blind proof-of-concept trial of personalized metacognitive training for adults with psychosis — a study protocol

BackgroundWhile psychological interventions are effective at improving symptoms of psychosis, accessible, cost- and time-efficient treatments remain limited. Personalized medicine has emerged as a promising approach, tailoring interventions...

Hyperspectral imaging for the detection of plant pathogens in seeds: recent developments and challenges

Food security, a critical concern amid global population growth, faces challenges in sustainable agricultural production due to significant yield losses caused by plant diseases, with a multitude of them caused by seedborne plant pathogen. ...

Energy-Efficient Dynamic RTO with Enhanced Stability for CoAP-Based IoT Networks

The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is widely adopted to ensure end-to-end reliability in resource-constrained Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, CoAP’s default retransmission time...
