A SAM2 and VLM-Based Automatic Radiological Reporting System for Pneumothorax Detection

Background/Objectives: Pneumothorax, caused by air accumulation in the pleural space, can lead to lung collapse and, if diagnosis is delayed, respiratory or cardiovascular deterioration. Most deep-learning studies on pneumothorax address cl...

Vehicle detection in drone aerial views based on lightweight OSD-YOLOv10

Abstract To address the challenges of low performance in vehicle image detection from UAV aerial imagery, difficulties in small target feature extraction, and the large parameter size of existing models, we propose the OSD-YOLOv10 algorithm...

Data-Driven Cervical Cancer Prediction Model with Outlier Detection and Over-Sampling Methods

Globally, cervical cancer remains as the foremost prevailing cancer in females. Hence, it is necessary to distinguish the importance of risk factors of cervical cancer to classify potential patients. The present work proposes a cervical can...

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...

Non-Motorized License Plate Recognition and Localization Method Based on Semantic Alignment and Hierarchical Optimization

Holding non-motorized vehicles accountable for legal violations effectively enhances urban traffic safety. Non-motorized vehicle license plates are characterized by small size, dense distribution, and ease of being obscured, which leads to ...

An Intelligent Fuzzy System for Diabetes Disease Detection using Harris Hawks Optimization

This paper proposed a fuzzy expert system for diagnosing diabetes. In the proposed method, at first, the fuzzy rules are generated based on the Pima Indians Diabetes Database (PIDD) and then the fuzzy membership functions are tuned using th...

Surveillance of FAP: a prospective blinded comparison of capsule endoscopy and other GI imaging to detect small bowel polyps

Abstract Background Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary disorder characterized by polyposis along the gastrointestinal tract. Information on adenoma status below the duodenum has previously been restricted due to its inacce...

Molecular detection of antibiotic resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from poultry farms of Kathmandu Valley, Nepal

Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a critical global health challenge and is currently addressed through a “One Health” approach that investigates its occurrence in humans, animals, and the environment, as wel...

New spatial records of vascular plants in the Azores Archipelago: the PRIBES project and the Azorean Biodiversity Portal (ABP) initiatives - I. São Jorge Island (Azores)

The Azores Archipelago is known for its important natural heritage, yet its ecosystems face a “green tsunami” in the form of numerous exotic and invasive species. This influx has wrought serious biodiversity loss and degradation of ecosyste...

Barriers to tuberculosis case finding in primary and secondary health facilities in Ghana: perceptions, experiences and practices of healthcare workers

Abstract Background Ghana’s national tuberculosis (TB) prevalence survey conducted in 2013 showed higher than expected TB prevalence indicating that many people with TB were not being identified and treated. Responding to this, we assessed ...
