This paper presents a method for automatic 3D segmentation of brain tumors in MRI using optical scanning holography. Automatic segmentation of tumors from 2D slices (coronal, sagittal and axial) enables efficient 3D reconstruction of the region of interest, eliminating the human errors of manual methods. The method uses enhanced optical scanning holography with a cylindrical…

Over the past ten years, deep learning models have considerably advanced research in artificial intelligence, particularly in the segmentation of medical images. One of the key benefits of medical picture segmentation is that it allows for a more accurate analysis of anatomical data by separating only pertinent areas. Numerous studies revealed that these models could…

Brain tumor is the abnormal growth of cancerous cells in Brain. The development of automated methods for segmenting brain tumors remains one of the most difficult tasks in medical data processing. Accurate segmentation can improve diagnosis, such as evaluating tumor volume. However, manual segmentation in magnetic resonance data is a laborious task. The main problem…

Brain tumor is such an abnormality of brain tissue that causes brain hemorrhage. Therefore, apposite detections of brain tumor, its size, and position are the foremost condition for the remedy. To obtain better performance in brain tumor and its stages detection as well as its position in MRI images, this research work proposes an advanced…

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNA molecules that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression by binding to and degrading targeted mRNAs. miRNAs targeting a specific mRNA have a region known as the “seed sequence”, which typically has a high affinity for its complementary sequence in the targeted mRNA. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are mutations…

True Random Number Generators (TRNG) find applications in various fields, especially hardware security. We suggest a TRNG that exploits the intrinsic static stochasticity of Resistive Switching Random Access Memories (ReRAMs) to generate random bits. Other suggested designs use stochasticity in the switching mechanism, which requires high precision over input voltage and time. In the proposed…

Being known as an irreversible neurodegenerative disease which has no cure to date, detection and classification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in its early stages is significant so that the deterioration process can be slowed down. Generally, AD can be classified into three major stages, ranging from the “normal control” stage with no symptoms shown, the…

This paper deals with the analysis of the dynamic linkage, co-movement between COVID-19 out- break situations and German stock market. Firstly, Markov Regime Switching Analysis(MRSA) is proposed and employed to investigate the situations in the pandemic, as to catch the dynamics of how the daily number of the newly-infected changes, and also to assess the…

This work is to FFMR design in such a way whether augmented model is steady get a reduced H? index in FF areas with noise is established as a prerequisite. To highlight the importance of suggested process, a practical application…

Multi-Robot System (MRS) is a complex system that contains many different software and hardware components. This main problem addressed in this article is the MRS design complexity. The proposed solution provides a modular modeling and simulation technique that is based on formal system engineering method, therefore the MRS design complexity is decomposed and reduced. Modeling…

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) was widely used for treating tumors non-invasively. In this treatment, ultrasound is focused on the target volume inside the human body to ablate cancerous tissues and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is mainly used to grasp the target position and to measure the temperature distributions around the target. However, MRI is…

A rarefied gas flow is modeled inside two cases of triangular lid-driven microcavity using single (SRT) and multi-relaxation time (MRT) lattice Boltzmann approaches. In the first one, the right angle is in the top-left corner and the upper wall moves with positive horizontal velocity. However, in the second case, the right angle is in the…

The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is an important component for industrial automatic engineering operation. Hence, the need to comprehend its basis of operation becomes an inevitable task. Some of the problems is industrial PLC is an expensive, pre-built hardware kit, acquisition of programming software and its requisite programming competence is a challenge. Thus, this paper…

Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) for remote sensing image data is a tedious process due to high resolution and complexity of image interpretation. Development of feature extraction technique is a major portion to represent the image content in an optimal way.

Anomaly detection aims at identification of suspicious items, observations or events by differing from most of the data. Intrusion Detection, Fault Detection, and Fraud Detection are some of the various applications of Anomaly Detection. The Machine learning classifier algorithms used in these applications would greatly affect the overall efficiency. This work is an extension of…

To reduce its high last mile logistics cost, a company may explore different options such as a horizontal collaboration with another company that has a similar logistics requirement. Traditionally, the collaboration can be conducted through an outsource contract mechanism where the company may need to guarantee a certain number of logistics demands or usage for…
