Spatially Constrained Discontinuity Trace Extraction from 3D Point Clouds by Intersecting Boundaries Segmented

Discontinuity trace provides critical geological data for engineering design and construction optimization. However, current extraction methods relying on discontinuity intersection fitting are highly sensitive to the segmentation accuracy ...

Automated wound care by employing a reliable U-Net architecture combined with ResNet feature encoders for monitoring chronic wounds

Quality of life is greatly affected by chronic wounds. It requires more intensive care than acute wounds. Schedule follow-up appointments with their doctor to track healing. Good wound treatment promotes healing and fewer problems. Wound ca...

One roof, two thermal modes

While seasonally fixed passive coolers provide thermal relief during heat-stress periods, their intrinsic mechanism of continuous heat dissipation renders them inherently thermally penalizing during the heating season. Here, we report and h...

Automatic Detection of Abnormal EEG Signals Using WaveNet and LSTM

Neurological disorders have an extreme impact on global health, affecting an estimated one billion individuals worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), these neurological disorders contribute to approximately six million...

A Novel Construction Method of Bayesian Neural Networks Based on Multi-type Engineering Knowledge

Abstract In the field of engineering, the utilization of surrogate models to replace computationally intensive simulation software has become a widely adopted approach. However, when addressing complex engineering problems, the costs of sim...

GERP: A Personality-Based Emotional Response Generation Model

It is important for chatbots to emotionally communicate with users. However, most emotional response generation models generate responses simply based on a specified emotion, neglecting the impacts of speaker’s personality on emotional expr...

Cyberattacks on Miniature Brain Implants to Disrupt Spontaneous Neural Signaling

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) arose as systems that merge computing systems with the human brain to facilitate recording, stimulation, and inhibition of neural activity. Over the years, the development of BCI technologies has shifted towa...

Identification and Functional Assessment of the First Placental Adhesin of Treponema pallidum That May Play Critical Role in Congenital Syphilis

Syphilis is a global, re-emerging sexually transmitted infection and congenital syphilis remains a major cause of adverse pregnancy outcomes due to bacterial infection in developing nations with a high rate of fetus loss. The molecular mech...

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell line MHHi040-A from a female Fabry disease patient carrying c.644A>G missense mutation

Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked, monogenic lysosomal storage disorder, caused by mutations in the GLA gene. GLA encodes the lysosomal hydrolase alpha-galactosidase A and enzyme deficiency leads to accumulation of its substrate globotriaos...

Causal relationship between genetic-predicted uric acid and cervical cancer risk: evidence for nutritional intervention on cervical cancer prevention

IntroductionThe relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) and cervical cancer is inconclusive. This study aims to investigate the causal relationship between SUA levels and cervical cancer incidence, and to evaluate the potential role of n...

An Anthropology of Ethics

Through an ambitious and critical revision of Michel Foucault's investigation of ethics, James Faubion develops an original program of empirical inquiry into the ethical domain. From an anthropological perspective, Faubion argues that Fouca...

The Role of Public Administration in Promoting Sustainable Development: A Case Study of Population Growth and Global Nutrition Interventions

This research paper aims to investigate the role of public administration in promoting sustainable development through a case study of global nutrition interventions and population growth. The study employs a case study approach to gain a c...

A Web-Based Tool for Quantification of Potential Gains in Life Expectancy by Preventing Cause-Specific Mortality

Introduction: Local health departments are currently limited in their ability to use life expectancy (LE) as a benchmark for improving community health. In collaboration with the Baltimore City Health Department, our aim was to develop a we...

The Ubuntu Principle in the Internal and Foreign Policy of South Africa

This article discusses the peculiar features of South Africa’s foreign policy, which became the fifth member of BRICS in 2011. The decision for South Africa’s accession to BRICS was based on the principles of the country's foreign policy; f...
