文摘Medical image analysis based on deep learning has become an important technical requirement in the field of smart healthcare.In view of the difficulties in collaborative modeling of local details and global features in multimodal image analysis of ophthalmology,as well as the existence of information redundancy in cross-modal data fusion,this paper proposes amultimodal fusion framework based on cross-modal collaboration and weighted attention mechanism.In terms of feature extraction,the framework collaboratively extracts local fine-grained features and global structural dependencies through a parallel dual-branch architecture,overcoming the limitations of traditional single-modality models in capturing either local or global information;in terms of fusion strategy,the framework innovatively designs a cross-modal dynamic fusion strategy,combining overlappingmulti-head self-attention modules with a bidirectional feature alignment mechanism,addressing the bottlenecks of low feature interaction efficiency and excessive attention fusion computations in traditional parallel fusion,and further introduces cross-domain local integration technology,which enhances the representation ability of the lesion area through pixel-level feature recalibration and optimizes the diagnostic robustness of complex cases.Experiments show that the framework exhibits excellent feature expression and generalization performance in cross-domain scenarios of ophthalmic medical images and natural images,providing a high-precision,low-redundancy fusion paradigm for multimodal medical image analysis,and promoting the upgrade of intelligent diagnosis and treatment fromsingle-modal static analysis to dynamic decision-making.
文摘Deep Learning-based systems for Finger vein recognition have gained rising attention in recent years due to improved efficiency and enhanced security.The performance of existing CNN-based methods is limited by the puny generalization of learned features and deficiency of the finger vein image training data.Considering the concerns of existing methods,in this work,a simplified deep transfer learning-based framework for finger-vein recognition is developed using an EfficientNet model of deep learning with a self-attention mechanism.Data augmentation using various geometrical methods is employed to address the problem of training data shortage required for a deep learning model.The proposed model is tested using K-fold cross-validation on three publicly available datasets:HKPU,FVUSM,and SDUMLA.Also,the developed network is compared with other modern deep nets to check its effectiveness.In addition,a comparison of the proposed method with other existing Finger vein recognition(FVR)methods is also done.The experimental results exhibited superior recognition accuracy of the proposed method compared to other existing methods.In addition,the developed method proves to be more effective and less sophisticated at extracting robust features.The proposed EffAttenNet achieves an accuracy of 98.14%on HKPU,99.03%on FVUSM,and 99.50%on SDUMLA databases.

文摘For image compression sensing reconstruction,most algorithms use the method of reconstructing image blocks one by one and stacking many convolutional layers,which usually have defects of obvious block effects,high computational complexity,and long reconstruction time.An image compressed sensing reconstruction network based on self-attention mechanism(SAMNet)was proposed.For the compressed sampling,self-attention convolution was designed,which was conducive to capturing richer features,so that the compressed sensing measurement value retained more image structure information.For the reconstruction,a self-attention mechanism was introduced in the convolutional neural network.A reconstruction network including residual blocks,bottleneck transformer(BoTNet),and dense blocks was proposed,which strengthened the transfer of image features and reduced the amount of parameters dramatically.Under the Set5 dataset,when the measurement rates are 0.01,0.04,0.10,and 0.25,the average peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)of SAMNet is improved by 1.27,1.23,0.50,and 0.15 dB,respectively,compared to the CSNet+.The running time of reconstructing a 256×256 image is reduced by 0.1473,0.1789,0.2310,and 0.2524 s compared to ReconNet.Experimental results showed that SAMNet improved the quality of reconstructed images and reduced the reconstruction time.

文摘As the complexity of scientific satellite missions increases,the requirements for their magnetic fields,magnetic field fluctuations,and even magnetic field gradients and variations become increasingly stringent.Additionally,there is a growing need to address the alternating magnetic fields produced by the spacecraft itself.This paper introduces a novel modeling method for spacecraft magnetic dipoles using an integrated self-attention mechanism and a transformer combined with Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks.The self-attention mechanism captures correlations among globally sparse data,establishing dependencies b.etween sparse magnetometer readings.Concurrently,the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network,proficient in modeling implicit numerical relationships between data features,enhances the ability to learn subtle patterns.Comparative experiments validate the capability of the proposed method to precisely model magnetic dipoles,achieving maximum Root Mean Square Errors of 24.06 mA·m^(2)and 0.32 cm for size and location modeling,respectively.The spacecraft magnetic model established using this method accurately computes magnetic fields and alternating magnetic fields at designated surfaces or points.This approach facilitates the rapid and precise construction of individual and complete spacecraft magnetic models,enabling the verification of magnetic specifications from the spacecraft design phase.
文摘The development of deep learning has made non-biochemical methods for molecular property prediction screening a reality,which can increase the experimental speed and reduce the experimental cost of relevant experiments.There are currently two main approaches to representing molecules:(a)representing molecules by fixing molecular descriptors,and(b)representing molecules by graph convolutional neural networks.Currently,both of these Representative methods have achieved some results in their respective experiments.Based on past efforts,we propose a Dual Self-attention Fusion Message Neural Network(DSFMNN).DSFMNN uses a combination of dual self-attention mechanism and graph convolutional neural network.Advantages of DSFMNN:(1)The dual self-attention mechanism focuses not only on the relationship between individual subunits in a molecule but also on the relationship between the atoms and chemical bonds contained in each subunit.(2)On the directed molecular graph,a message delivery approach centered on directed molecular bonds is used.We test the performance of the model on eight publicly available datasets and compare the performance with several models.Based on the current experimental results,DSFMNN has superior performance compared to previous models on the datasets applied in this paper.

文摘Currently,most trains are equipped with dedicated cameras for capturing pantograph videos.Pantographs are core to the high-speed-railway pantograph-catenary system,and their failure directly affects the normal operation of high-speed trains.However,given the complex and variable real-world operational conditions of high-speed railways,there is no real-time and robust pantograph fault-detection method capable of handling large volumes of surveillance video.Hence,it is of paramount importance to maintain real-time monitoring and analysis of pantographs.Our study presents a real-time intelligent detection technology for identifying faults in high-speed railway pantographs,utilizing a fusion of self-attention and convolution features.We delved into lightweight multi-scale feature-extraction and fault-detection models based on deep learning to detect pantograph anomalies.Compared with traditional methods,this approach achieves high recall and accuracy in pantograph recognition,accurately pinpointing issues like discharge sparks,pantograph horns,and carbon pantograph-slide malfunctions.After experimentation and validation with actual surveillance videos of electric multiple-unit train,our algorithmic model demonstrates real-time,high-accuracy performance even under complex operational conditions.

文摘Introduction:Accurate prediction of protocadherin 8(PCDH8)gene expression status from whole-slide images(WSIs)is critical for thyroid cancer diagnosis and prognosis,as PCDH8 overexpression is associated with tumor aggressiveness and poor outcomes.Existing methods for PCDH8 detection are often costly,time-consuming,or require specialized expertise.To address these limitations,we developed a novel depth-wise separable residual neural network(DSRNet)for noninvasive PCDH8 status prediction directly from WSIs.Materials and methods:We collected 403 thyroid cancer WSIs from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),with PCDH8 expression status classified as high or low based on median expression values.Each WSI was divided into 512×512 pixel tiles,with the top 100 non-white tiles selected per slide.DSRNet integrates depth-wise separable convolutions,residual connections,and a deformable convolutional pyramid pooling module to efficiently capture multiscale and long-range features in gigapixel WSIs.The model was trained using tenfold cross-validation.Results:DSRNet achieved state-of-the-art performance with 92.76%accuracy,91.92%precision,92.69%recall,and 0.93 area under the curve on the thyroid cancer dataset(TCGA-THCA),significantly outperforming leading convolutional neural networks and Transformer models.Ablation studies confirmed the contributions of each component,and attention visualization showed that DSRNet focuses on biologically relevant regions.The model also generalized well to a breast cancer dataset(TCGA-BRCA),achieving 89.13%accuracy.Conclusions:We developed DSRNet,a deep learning-based model for predicting PCDH8 status directly from routine hematoxylin and eosin-stained pathological images.DSRNet combines the efficiency of convolutional operations with enhanced long-range dependency modeling,providing a noninvasive,accurate,and interpretable tool for auxiliary thyroid cancer diagnosis and prognosis.The results demonstrate its strong potential for clinical translation,though further multicenter validation is warranted.

文摘This paper examines a model that combines vortex generators and leading-edge tubercles for controlling the laminar separation bubble(LSB)over an airfoil at low Reynolds numbers(Re).This new concept of passive flow control technique utilizing a tubercle and vortex generator(VG)close to the leading edge was analyzed numerically for a NACA0015 airfoil.In this study,the Shear Stress Transport(SST)turbulence model was employed in the numerical modelling.Numerical modelling was completed using the ANSYS-Fluent 18.2 solver.Analyses were conducted to investigate the flow pattern and understand the underlying LSB control phenomena that enabled the new passive flow control method to provide this significant performance benefit.The findings indicated that the new concept of passive flow control technique suppressed the formation of an LSB at the suction surface of the NACA0015 airfoil,resulting in a higher lift coefficient and improved aerodynamic performance.Improvements in LSB dynamics and aerodynamic performance through the passive flow control method lead to increased energy output and enhanced stability.

文摘With the legislative development,the organic and inorganic composition separation has become the primary requirement for sewer sediment disposal,however the relevant technology has been rarely reported and the driving mechanism was still unclear.In this study,direct disintegration of biopolymers and indirect broken of connection point were investigated on the hydrolysis and component separation.Three typical sewer sediment treatment approaches,i.e.,alkaline,thermal and cation exchange treatments were proposed,which represented the hydrolysis-driving forces of chemical hydrolysis,physical hydrolysis and innovative cation bridging break-age.The results showed that the organic and inorganic separation rates of sewer sediment driven by alkaline,thermal and cation exchange treatments reached 21.26%,23.80%,and 19.56%-48.0%,respectively,compared to 4.43%in control.The secondary structure of proteins was disrupted,transitioning from𝛼α-helix to𝛽β-turn and random coil.Meanwhile,much biopolymers were released from solid to the liquid phase.From thermody-namic perspective,sewer sediment deposition was controlled by short-range interfacial interactions described by extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory.Additionally,the separation of organic and inorganic components was positively correlated with the thermodynamic parameters(Corr=0.87),highlighted the robust-ness of various driving forces.And the flocculation energy barriers were 2.40(alkaline),1.60 times(thermal),and 4.02–4.97 times(cation exchange)compared to control group.The findings revealed the contrition differ-ence of direct disintegration of gelatinous biopolymers and indirect breakage of composition connection sites in sediment composition separation,filling the critical gaps in understanding the specific mechanisms of sediment biopolymer disintegration and intermolecular connection breakage.

文摘Lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)represent a next-generation energy storage technology,but widespread applications are restricted by the shuttle of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs).The rational design of separators has been demonstrated to be one of the most efficient and cost-effective strategies to curb the shuttle effect,and tremendous research progress has been achieved.The efficiency of a separator depends on its interaction with LiPSs,which is governed by the surface energy and binding strength.Despite several review works that have been reported to advance the separators,most of them primarily focus on active material innovation and construction.The most crucial issues of surface binding energy have not been systematically reviewed,limiting the precise design of efficient separators.In this review,fundamentals related to surface energy and binding interactions with LiPSs are comprehensively analyzed and discussed.With surface binding and energy main lines,the advancements in separator engineering strategies are elaborately summarized and discussed.Moreover,techniques for evaluating affinity to LiPSs are thoroughly analyzed to avoid any ambiguities in measurement.Based on the research context,valuable research directions are suggested to construct efficient separators.This work provides guidelines to regulate the surface binding and energy of separators for high-performance LSBs.

文摘Vehicle-induced response separation is a crucial issue in structural health monitoring(SHM).This paper proposes a block-wise sliding recursive wavelet transform algorithm to meet the real-time processing requirements of monitoring data.To extend the separation target from a fixed dataset to a continuously updating data stream,a block-wise sliding framework is first developed.This framework is further optimized considering the characteristics of real-time data streams,and its advantage in computational efficiency is theoretically demonstrated.During the decomposition and reconstruction processes,information from neighboring data blocks is fully utilized to reduce algorithmic complexity.In addition,a delay-setting strategy is introduced for each processing window to mitigate boundary effects,thereby balancing accuracy and efficiency.Simulated signal experiments are conducted to determine the optimal delay configuration and to verify the algorithm’s superior performance,achieving a lower Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)and only 0.0249 times the average computational time compared with the original algorithm.Furthermore,strain signals from the Lieshi River Bridge are employed to validate the method.The proposed algorithm successfully separates the static trend from vehicle-induced responses in real time across different sampling frequencies,demonstrating its effectiveness and applicability in real-time bridge monitoring.

文摘To develop an efficient filter for removing white blood cells from whole blood,hydrophilic large-pore blended membranes of poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF),polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyethylene glycol,with good biocompatibility,were prepared using the process of vapor-induced phase separation at various PVDF concentrations.The results demonstrated that at a PVDF mass concentration of 14%,the membrane had increased surface roughness,significantly enhanced hydrophilicity and wettability,and a wetting time of 8 s.The surface roughness of the membrane was also reduced to 31.637 nm.Furthermore,hemolysis rate and protein adsorption tests indicated that the blended membranes possessed excellent biocompatibility.They were reduced to 2.48%and 34.44μg·cm^(−2),respectively.The pore size of the fabricated membrane was relatively large,which reached approximately 8μm respectively,satisfying the filtration requirements.Lastly,the effects of different temperatures and multi-layered filters on leukocyte removal and the retention of red blood cells and platelets from whole blood were evaluated.The results revealed that the leukocyte removal rate was highest at 4℃ and with three membrane layers,the leukocyte removal rate was highest,reaching 98.36%,while the RBC and platelet content remained nearly unchanged compared with the original blood.This study provides a new approach for blood cell separation that is expected to play a significant role in medical fields such as blood transfusion demonstrating great potential for application and innovation.
文摘Objective:To analyze the impact of maternal-infant separation on the physical and mental state of high-risk pregnancy patients and explore the clinical efficacy of targeted nursing interventions.Methods:A total of 80 high-risk pregnancy patients treated in our hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the study subjects.These patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group(40 cases each)using a random number table.The control group received routine high-risk pregnancy nursing care,while the observation group received specialized maternal-infant separation nursing interventions in addition to routine care.The psychological and physiological states and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared before and after the intervention.Results:The SAS scores,SDS scores,and sleep quality scores of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,with statistically significant differences(p<0.05).The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group,and the initiation time of lactation was significantly earlier than that in the control group,with both differences being statistically significant(p<0.05).The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(80%vs.32/40),with a statistically significant difference(p<0.05).Conclusion:Maternal-infant separation exacerbates anxiety and depression in high-risk pregnancy patients,reduces sleep quality,increases the risk of postpartum hemorrhage,and delays the initiation of lactation.Specialized nursing interventions for maternal-infant separation can improve the physical and mental state of high-risk pregnancy patients,reduce the incidence of postpartum complications,and enhance nursing satisfaction,making them worthy of clinical application and promotion.

文摘Zn-I_(2) batteries have emerged as promising next-generation energy storage systems owing to their inherent safety,environmental compatibility,rapid reaction kinetics,and small voltage hysteresis.Nevertheless,two critical challenges,i.e.,zinc dendrite growth and polyiodide shuttle effect,severely impede their commercial viability.To conquer these limitations,this study develops a multifunctional separator fabricated from straw-derived carboxylated nanocellulose,with its negative charge density further reinforced by anionic polyacrylamide incorporation.This modification simultaneously improves the separator’s mechanical properties,ionic conductivity,and Zn^(2+)ion transfer number.Remarkably,despite its ultrathin 20μm profile,the engineered separator demonstrates exceptional dendrite suppression and parasitic reaction inhibition,enabling Zn//Zn symmetric cells to achieve impressive cycle life(>1800 h at 2 m A cm^(-2)/2 m Ah cm^(-2))while maintaining robust performance even at ultrahigh areal capacities(25 m Ah cm^(-2)).Additionally,the separator’s anionic characteristic effectively blocks polyiodide migration through electrostatic repulsion,yielding Zn-I_(2) batteries with outstanding rate capability(120.7 m Ah g^(-1)at 5 A g^(-1))and excellent cyclability(94.2%capacity retention after 10,000 cycles).And superior cycling stability can still be achieved under zinc-deficient condition and pouch cell configuration.This work establishes a new paradigm for designing high-performance zinc-based energy storage systems through rational separator engineering.
