Proposal and Implementation of Seawater Temperature Prediction Model using Transfer Learning Considering Water Depth Differences
Aquaculture is one of the most important industries worldwide, and most marine products are produced by aquaculture. On the other hand, the aquaculture farmers are faced on the challenge of damage to marine products due to abnormal seawater temperatures. Research on seawater temperature prediction have been conducted, but many of them require a large amount…
Read MoreHybrid Optical Scanning Holography for Automatic Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of Brain Tumors from MRI using Active Contours
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…
Read MoreFrom Sensors to Data: Model and Architecture of an IoT Public Network
RetePAIoT of Emilia-Romagna region is an IoT Public Network, financed by Emilia-Romagna Region and developed by Lepida Scpa, where citizens, private companies and Public Administrations can integrate free of charge their own sensors of any type and anywhere in the region. The main objective of the project is to provide a facility to implement the…
Read MoreGPT-Enhanced Hierarchical Deep Learning Model for Automated ICD Coding
In healthcare, accurate communication is critical, and medical coding, especially coding using the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) standards, plays a vital role in achieving this accuracy. Traditionally, ICD coding has been a time-consuming manual process performed by trained professionals, involving the assignment of codes to patient records, such as doctor’s notes. In this paper,…
Read MoreEarly Detection of SMPS Electromagnetic Interference Failures Using Fuzzy Multi-Task Functional Fusion Prediction
This study addresses the need for improved prognostics in switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) that incorporate electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters, with a focus on aluminum electrolytic capacitors, which are critical for the reliability of these systems. The primary aim is to develop a robust model-based approach that can accurately predict the degradation and operational lifetime of…
Read MoreIntegrating Speech and Gesture for Generating Reliable Robotic Task Configuration
This paper presents a system that combines speech and pointing gestures along with four distinct hand gestures to precisely identify both the object of interest and parameters for robotic tasks. We utilized skeleton landmarks to detect pointing gestures and determine their direction, while a pre-trained model, trained on 21 hand landmarks from 2D images, was…
Read MoreOn Mining Most Popular Packages
In this paper, we will discuss two algorithms to solve the so-called package design problem, by which a set of queries (referred to as a query log) is represented by a collection of bit strings with each indicating the favourite activities or items of customers. For such a query log, we are required to design…
Read MoreEffectiveness of a voice analysis technique in the assessment of depression status of individuals from Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam: A cross-sectional study
The Mind Monitoring System (MIMOSYS) is a novel voice analysis technique for mental health assessment that has been validated in some languages; however, no research has been conducted on the Vietnamese yet. This study aimed to examine the ability of the Vitality score extracted from the MIMOSYS system to assess depression status based on the…
Read MoreIoT and Business Intelligence Based Model Design for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Distribution Monitoring
Gas leakage caused by various causes poses significant risks to public safety. To address this problem, an intelligent model is proposed for the accurate monitoring of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) distribution based on the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) and Business Intelli- gence (BI) technologies. Through the use of sensors and actuators, it seeks…
Read MoreDigitalization Review for American SMEs
SME big data maturity models will be reviewed in this study to identify systematic publications related to the subject. For SMEs to remain competitive, digitalization is essential. Due to limited resources, SMEs need to be more proactive in digitalization. Still, the benefits, such as operational efficiency, cost reduction, quality improvement, and innovative culture, make digitalization…
