Ultrasound-enhanced co-fermentation of Yunnan Arabica coffee with rose petals: Mass transfer, microbial succession, and molecular modeling.

Different sex ratios of children born to Indian and Pakistani immigrants in Norway

Abstract Background A low female-to-male ratio has been observed in different Asian countries, but this phenomenon has not been well studied among immigrants living in Western societies. In this study, we investigated whether a low female-t...

Experimental methodology for obtaining sound absorption coefficients

Objective: the authors propose a new methodology for estimating sound absorption coefficients using genetic algorithms. Methodology: sound waves are generated and conducted along a rectangular silencer. The waves are then attenuated by the ...

Natural Language Processing and Semantical Representation of Medical Texts

For medical records, the challenge for the present decade is Natural Language Processing (NLP) of texts, and the construction of an adequate Knowledge Representation. This article describes the components of an NLP system, which is currentl...

A comparative study of the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence models for automated plaque measurement in a carotid ultrasound Japanese cohort.

Thyroid Ultrasound Appropriateness Identification Through Natural Language Processing of Electronic Health Records

Objective: To address thyroid cancer overdiagnosis, we aim to develop a natural language processing (NLP) algorithm to determine the appropriateness of thyroid ultrasounds (TUS). Patients and Methods: Between 2017 and 2021, we identified 18...

Assessment of Erroneous Allergy Documentation of Amoxapine with Look Alike Sound Alike Drugs.

Diminished Auditory Responses during NREM Sleep Correlate with the Hierarchy of Language Processing.

Natural sleep provides a powerful model system for studying the neuronal correlates of awareness and state changes in the human brain. To quantitatively map the nature of sleep-induced modulations in sensory responses we presented participa...

Valorisation of agri-food by-products into bioactive compounds: Green extraction, microbial biotransformation and circular biorefinery strategies

Agri-food processing generates large volumes of by-products that remain insufficiently exploited despite their content of phenolic compounds, peptides, polysaccharides, carotenoids, dietary fibres and other functional constituents. These si...

Culling Double Counting in Sequence Images for Fruit Yield Estimation

Exact yield estimation of fruits on plants guaranteed fine and timely decisions on harvesting and marketing practices. Automatic yield estimation based on unmanned agriculture offers a viable solution for large orchards. Recent years have w...

Adversarial robustness of deep learning-based thyroid nodule segmentation in ultrasound.

A high robustness decoding technique for ultrasound modulated electroencephalogram.

Ultrasound neural interface enabling acute spinal cord monitoring and blood flow modulation.

From Data to Decisions: AI in Varicose Veins—Predicting, Diagnosing, and Guiding Effective Management

Background: Varicose veins (VVs) of the lower limbs, characterized by palpable, dilated, and tortuous veins, affect 2–73% of the global population. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers significant potential to enhance healthcare efficiency a...

Inactivation of microorganisms in the complex regions of transvaginal ultrasound probes by a UVC-LED light based disinfection system.

Design of a TSR-based project learning strategy for biochemistry undergraduate teaching and research labs: a case study

Given the exponential growth of biochemical data and deep effect of computational methods on life sciences, there is a need to rethink undergraduate curricula. A project-oriented learning approach based on the Triangular Spatial Relationshi...

A System for the Detection of Polyphonic Sound on a University Campus Based on CapsNet-RNN

In recent decades, surveillance and home security systems based on video analysis have been proposed for the automatic detection of abnormal situations. Nevertheless, in several real applications, it may be easier to detect a given event fr...

Automated deep bottleneck residual 82-layered architecture with Bayesian optimization for the classification of brain and common maternal fetal ultrasound planes

Despite a worldwide decline in maternal mortality over the past two decades, a significant gap persists between low- and high-income countries, with 94% of maternal mortality concentrated in low and middle-income nations. Ultrasound serves ...
