Enhanced Deep Learning Model for Classification of Retinal Optical Coherence Tomography Images

Retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging is a valuable tool for assessing the condition of the back part of the eye. The condition has a great effect on the specificity of diagnosis, the monitoring of many physiological and pathol...

BP Neural Network–Based Kalman Filtering Method Under Multiple Cyberattacks

This paper proposes a Kalman-gain-driven neural Kalman filtering (KF) defense framework, termed KFDBP, for secure state estimation in cyber–physical systems (CPSs) under denial-of-service (DoS), spoofing, and replay attacks. Unlike end-to-e...

Volume Segmentation of Liver and Liver Tumor with Fusion of Multi-Branch Features

The overcomplete convolutional structure for biological images and volume segmentation is an excellent solution to the problem in which traditional codec methods cannot accurately segment the boundary regions. Although such methods perform ...

Clustering Ensemble Joint Similarity Recommendation Algorithm Optimized by Improved Bee Colony

The collaborative filtering algorithm is widely used in the field of recommendation because of its good recommendation effect,which nonetheless is significantly reduced when the data is sparse and from a cold start.In this case,in order to ...

Heat Stress in Livestock: Impacts and Ameliorative Strategies—a Review
