文摘BACKGROUND SMARCB1/INI1-deficient pancreatic undifferentiated rhabdoid carcinoma is a highly aggressive tumor,and spontaneous splenic rupture(SSR)as its presenting manifestation is rarely reported among pancreatic malignancies.CASE SUMMARY We herein report a rare case of a 59-year-old female who presented with acute left upper quadrant abdominal pain without any history of trauma.Abdominal imaging demonstrated a heterogeneous splenic lesion with hemoperitoneum,raising clinical suspicion of SSR.Emergency laparotomy revealed a pancreatic tumor invading the spleen and left kidney,with associated splenic rupture and dense adhesions,necessitating en bloc resection of the distal pancreas,spleen,and left kidney.Histopathology revealed a biphasic malignancy composed of moderately differentiated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and an undifferentiated carcinoma with rhabdoid morphology and loss of SMARCB1 expression.Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed complete loss of SMARCB1/INI1 in the undifferentiated component,along with a high Ki-67 index(approximately 80%)and CD10 positivity.The ductal adenocarcinoma component retained SMARCB1/INI1 expression and was positive for CK7 and CK-pan.Transitional zones between the two tumor components suggested progressive dedifferentiation and underlying genomic instability.The patient received adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel and maintained a satisfactory quality of life at the 6-month follow-up.CONCLUSION This study reports a rare case of SMARCB1/INI1-deficient undifferentiated rhabdoid carcinoma of the pancreas combined with ductal adenocarcinoma,presenting as SSR-an exceptionally uncommon initial manifestation of pancreatic malignancy.

文摘Aircraft-mounted weapons systems generate intense shock and vibration during combat missions,creating a highly complex,repetitive,and nonstationary environment.Avionic devices and components are susceptible to damage in severe gunfire shock environments and must undergo shock testing.In the absence of measured data,gunfire shock signals synthesized from Shock Response Spectrum(SRS) should serve as input excitation.However,the synthesis of gunfire shock signals presents several challenges,primarily due to the transient and repetitive nature of gunfire shock itself,as well as the inherent non-linearity in the SRS method.This paper presents a novel method for synthesizing gunfire shock signals that match SRS specifications while maintaining realistic temporal characteristics.The proposed method utilizes a shock-waveform dictionary technique to generate single-shot shock signals with controllable features including initial rise time,effective duration,and repetition intervals.These single-shot signals are then duplicated and concatenated to create multi-shot sequences,with low-frequency compensation applied to meet SRS requirements.The method's effectiveness is demonstrated through a case study simulating the M61A1 aircraft cannon firing at 4 000 rounds per minute,achieving an average error of only 0.35 d B compared to SRS specifications.Further validation across two additional cases with varied single-shot durations and repetition intervals underscores the method's generalizability.The proposed synthesis method provides a practical solution for laboratory testing of avionic equipment under gunfire shock conditions when measured data is unavailable.

文摘Improved delay detached eddy simulation is performed to explore the flow features and aero-optical effects of turrets with different bottom cylinder height at a freestream Mach number Ma=0.7.Analysis of both the time-averaged and instantaneous flow features demonstrate that the shock motion causes the oscillation of separated shear layer.In flow analysis,two unsteady shock-wake-correlated modes are discerned:the asymmetric shifting mode and the symmetric breathing mode.With the increase of cylinder height,the relative energy of shock gradually increases,which goes from 26%to 59%.The proper orthogonal decomposition analysis yields the single frequency peak for the two dominant modes.The frequency peaks of shifting mode are generally at StD<0.23,while the frequency peaks of breathing mode are generally at StD>0.26.The dynamic mode decomposition analysis gives range of frequency peak.The frequency peaks of shifting mode are in the range of StD=0.11-0.23,and the frequency peaks of breathing mode are in range of StD=0.26-0.41.Optical distortion analysis indicates that the distortion calculated in five cases is linked to the breathing mode.When the beam passes through the turbulent wake,it exhibits the high-frequency and high-amplitude characteristics.

文摘This study proposes a multimodal deep learning framework for joint prediction of the state of health(SOH)and remaining useful life(RUL)of lithium-ion batteries.Twelve representative impedance features-covering charge-transfer resistance,solid electrolyte interface(SEI)layer impedance,and ion diffusion-are extracted from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and combined with short voltage/current segments to form a compact,interpretable feature set.A residual multi-layer perceptron(ResMLP)is employed for SOH regression,and a temporal convolutional network with attention(TCNAttention)is used for RUL estimation.Lifetime experiments on two battery types with different chemistries and form factors,evaluated through three rounds of paired cross-validation,validate the approach.Results show that the proposed features significantly reduce dimensionality and computational cost while substantially lowering SOH error,achieving an average normalized root mean square error of 2.3%.The RUL prediction reaches an average error of 14.8%.Overall,the framework balances interpretability,robustness,and feasibility,providing a practical solution for battery management systems(BMS)monitoring and life prediction.

文摘Hard disk drives(HDDs)serve as the primary storage devices in modern data centers.Once a failure occurs,it often leads to severe data loss,significantly degrading the reliability of storage systems.Numerous studies have proposed machine learning-based HDD failure prediction models.However,the Self-Monitoring,Analysis,and Reporting Technology(SMART)attributes differ across HDD manufacturers.We define hard drives of the same brand and model as homogeneous HDD groups,and those from different brands or models as heterogeneous HDD groups.In practical engineering scenarios,a data center is often composed of a heterogeneous population of HDDs,spanning multiple vendors and models.Existing research predominantly focuses on homogeneous datasets,ignoring the model’s generalization capability across heterogeneous HDDs.As a result,HDD models with limited samples often suffer from poor training effectiveness and prediction performance.To address this issue,we investigate generalizable SMART predictors across heterogeneous HDD groups.By extracting time-series features within a fixed sliding time window,we propose a Heterogeneous Disk Failure Prediction Method based on Time Series Features(HDFPM)framework.This method is adaptable to HDD models with limited sample sizes,thereby enhancing its applicability and robustness across diverse drive populations.Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves an F1-score of 0.9518 when applied to two different Seagate HDD models,while maintaining the False Positive Rate(FPR)below 1%.After incorporating the Complexity-Ratio Dynamic Time Warping(CDTW)based feature enhancement method,the best prediction model achieves a True Positive Rate(TPR)of up to 0.93 between the two models.For next-day failure prediction across various Seagate models,the model achieves an F1-score of up to 0.8792.Moreover,the experimental results also show that within the same brand,the higher the proportion of shared SMART attributes across different models,the better the prediction performance.In addition,HDFPMdemonstrates the best stability andmost significant performance in heterogeneous environments.
文摘In the field of intelligent air combat,real-time and accurate recognition of within-visual-range(WVR)maneuver actions serves as the foundational cornerstone for constructing autonomous decision-making systems.However,existing methods face two major challenges:traditional feature engineering suffers from insufficient effective dimensionality in the feature space due to kinematic coupling,making it difficult to distinguish essential differences between maneuvers,while end-to-end deep learning models lack controllability in implicit feature learning and fail to model high-order long-range temporal dependencies.This paper proposes a trajectory feature pre-extraction method based on a Long-range Masked Autoencoder(LMAE),incorporating three key innovations:(1)Random Fragment High-ratio Masking(RFH-Mask),which enforces the model to learn long-range temporal correlations by masking 80%of trajectory data while retaining continuous fragments;(2)Kalman Filter-Guided Objective Function(KFG-OF),integrating trajectory continuity constraints to align the feature space with kinematic principles;and(3)Two-stage Decoupled Architecture,enabling efficient and controllable feature learning through unsupervised pre-training and frozen-feature transfer.Experimental results demonstrate that LMAE significantly improves the average recognition accuracy for 20-class maneuvers compared to traditional end-to-end models,while significantly accelerating convergence speed.The contributions of this work lie in:introducing high-masking-rate autoencoders into low-informationdensity trajectory analysis,proposing a feature engineering framework with enhanced controllability and efficiency,and providing a novel technical pathway for intelligent air combat decision-making systems.

文摘Phishing email detection represents a critical research challenge in cybersecurity.To address this,this paper proposes a novel Double-S(statistical-semantic)feature model based on three core entities involved in email communication:the sender,recipient,and email content.We employ strategic game theory to analyze the offensive strategies of phishing attackers and defensive strategies of protectors,extracting statistical features from these entities.We also leverage the Qwen large language model to excavate implicit semantic features(e.g.,emotional manipulation and social engineering tactics)from email content.By integrating statistical and semantic features,our model achieves a robust representation of phishing emails.We introduce a hybrid detection model that integrates a convolutional neural network(CNN)module with the XGBoost(Extreme Gradient Boosting)classifier,effectively capturing local correlations in high-dimensional features.Experimental results on real-world phishing email datasets demonstrate the superiority of our approach,achieving an F1-score of 0.9587,precision of 0.9591,and recall of 0.9583,representing improvements of 1.3%–10.6%compared to state-of-the-art methods.

文摘By integrating self-localization,environment mapping,and dynamic object tracking into a unified framework,visual simultaneous localization and mapping with multiple object tracking(SLAMMOT)enhances decision-making and interaction capabilities in applications such as autonomous driving,robotic navigation,and augmented reality.While numerous outstanding visual SLAMMOT methods have been proposed,the majority rely only on point features,overlooking the abundant and stable planar features in artificial objects that can provide valuable constraints.To address this limitation,we propose OP(object planar)-SLAM,an RGB-D SLAMMOT system that leverages planar features to improve object pose estimation and reconstruction accuracy.Specifically,we introduce an accurate object planar feature extraction and association method using normal images,alongside a novel object bundle adjustment framework that incorporates planar constraints for enhanced optimization.The proposed system is evaluated on both synthetic and public real-world datasets,including Oxford multimotion dataset(OMD)and KITTI tracking dataset.Especially on the OMD,where planar features are prominent,our method improves object pose estimation accuracy by approximately 60%.Extensive experiments demonstrate its effectiveness in enhancing object pose estimation and reconstruction,achieving notable performance compared with existing methods.Furthermore,OP-SLAM runs in real time,making it suitable for practical robots and augmented reality applications.

文摘The wheat above-ground biomass(AGB)is an important index that shows the life activity of vegetation,which is of great significance for wheat growth monitoring and yield prediction.Traditional biomass estimation methods specifically include sample surveys and harvesting statistics.Although these methods have high estimation accuracy,they are time-consuming,destructive,and difficult to implement to monitor the biomass at a large scale.The main objective of this study is to optimize the traditional remote sensing methods to estimate the wheat AGBbased on improved convolutional features(CFs).Low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles(UAV)were used as the main data acquisition equipment.This study acquired image data acquired by RGB camera(RGB)and multi-spectral(MS)image data of the wheat population canopy for two wheat varieties and five key growth stages.Then,field measurements were conducted to obtain the actual wheat biomass data for validation.Based on the remote sensing indices(RSIs),structural features(SFs),and CFs,this study proposed a new feature named AUR-50(multi-source combination based on convolutional feature optimization)to estimate the wheat AGB.The results show that AUR-50 could estimate the wheat AGB more accurately than RSIs and SFs,and the average R^(2) exceeded 0.77.In the overwintering period,AUR-50_(MS)(multi-source combination with convolutional feature optimization using multispectral imagery)had the highest estimation accuracy(R^(2) of 0.88).In addition,AUR-50 reduced the effect of the vegetation index saturation on the biomass estimation accuracy by adding CFs,where the highest R^(2) was 0.69 at the flowering stage.The results of this study provide an effective method to evaluate the AGB in wheat with high throughput and a research reference for the phenotypic parameters of other crops.
文摘BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide,with a poor prognosis often attributed to late diagnosis.Understanding the correlation between pathological type and imaging features is crucial for early detection and appropriate treatment planning.AIM To retrospectively analyze the relationship between different pathological types of pancreatic cancer and their corresponding imaging features.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 500 patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer between January 2010 and December 2020 at our institution.Pathological types were determined by histopathological examination of the surgical spe-cimens or biopsy samples.The imaging features were assessed using computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging,and endoscopic ultrasound.Statistical analyses were performed to identify significant associations between pathological types and specific imaging characteristics.RESULTS There were 320(64%)cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma,75(15%)of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms,50(10%)of neuroendocrine tumors,and 55(11%)of other rare types.Distinct imaging features were identified in each pathological type.Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma typically presents as a hypodense mass with poorly defined borders on computed tomography,whereas intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms present as characteristic cystic lesions with mural nodules.Neuroendocrine tumors often appear as hypervascular lesions in contrast-enhanced imaging.Statistical analysis revealed significant correlations between specific imaging features and pathological types(P<0.001).CONCLUSION This study demonstrated a strong association between the pathological types of pancreatic cancer and imaging features.These findings can enhance the accuracy of noninvasive diagnosis and guide personalized treatment approaches.

文摘The fusion of infrared and visible images should emphasize the salient targets in the infrared image while preserving the textural details of the visible images.To meet these requirements,an autoencoder-based method for infrared and visible image fusion is proposed.The encoder designed according to the optimization objective consists of a base encoder and a detail encoder,which is used to extract low-frequency and high-frequency information from the image.This extraction may lead to some information not being captured,so a compensation encoder is proposed to supplement the missing information.Multi-scale decomposition is also employed to extract image features more comprehensively.The decoder combines low-frequency,high-frequency and supplementary information to obtain multi-scale features.Subsequently,the attention strategy and fusion module are introduced to perform multi-scale fusion for image reconstruction.Experimental results on three datasets show that the fused images generated by this network effectively retain salient targets while being more consistent with human visual perception.

文摘Visible and infrared(RGB-IR)fusion object detection plays an important role in security,disaster relief,etc.In recent years,deep-learning-based RGB-IR fusion detection methods have been developing rapidly,but still struggle to deal with the complex and changing scenarios captured by drones,mainly due to two reasons:(A)RGB-IR fusion detectors are susceptible to inferior inputs that degrade performance and stability.(B)RGB-IR fusion detectors are susceptible to redundant features that reduce accuracy and efficiency.In this paper,an innovative RGB-IR fusion detection framework based on global-local feature optimization,named GLFDet,is proposed to improve the detection performance and efficiency of drone-captured objects.The key components of GLFDet include a Global Feature Optimization(GFO)module,a Local Feature Optimization(LFO)module and a Channel Separation Fusion(CSF)module.Specifically,GFO calculates the information content of the input image from the frequency domain and optimizes the features holistically.Then,LFO dynamically selects high-value features and filters out low-value features before fusion,which significantly improves the efficiency of fusion.Finally,CSF fuses the RGB and IR features across the corresponding channels,which avoids the rearrangement of the channel relationships and enhances the model stability.Extensive experimental results show that the proposed method achieves the best performance on three popular RGB-IR datasets Drone Vehicle,VEDAI,and LLVIP.In addition,GLFDet is more lightweight than other comparable models,making it more appealing to edge devices such as drones.The code is available at https://github.com/lao chen330/GLFDet.

文摘Smart contracts are widely used on the blockchain to implement complex transactions,such as decentralized applications on Ethereum.Effective vulnerability detection of large-scale smart contracts is critical,as attacks on smart contracts often cause huge economic losses.Since it is difficult to repair and update smart contracts,it is necessary to find the vulnerabilities before they are deployed.However,code analysis,which requires traversal paths,and learning methods,which require many features to be trained,are too time-consuming to detect large-scale on-chain contracts.Learning-based methods will obtain detection models from a feature space compared to code analysis methods such as symbol execution.But the existing features lack the interpretability of the detection results and training model,even worse,the large-scale feature space also affects the efficiency of detection.This paper focuses on improving the detection efficiency by reducing the dimension of the features,combined with expert knowledge.In this paper,a feature extraction model Block-gram is proposed to form low-dimensional knowledge-based features from bytecode.First,the metadata is separated and the runtime code is converted into a sequence of opcodes,which are divided into segments based on some instructions(jumps,etc.).Then,scalable Block-gram features,including 4-dimensional block features and 8-dimensional attribute features,are mined for the learning-based model training.Finally,feature contributions are calculated from SHAP values to measure the relationship between our features and the results of the detection model.In addition,six types of vulnerability labels are made on a dataset containing 33,885 contracts,and these knowledge-based features are evaluated using seven state-of-the-art learning algorithms,which show that the average detection latency speeds up 25×to 650×,compared with the features extracted by N-gram,and also can enhance the interpretability of the detection model.
