Potential beneficial real estate agents with regard to ischemic white issue destruction.
The manual monitoring of young infants suffering from diseases like reflux is significant, since infants can hardly articulate their feelings. In this work, we propose a video-based infant monitoring system for the analysis of infant expressions and states, approaching real-time performance. The expressions of interest consist of discomfort, unhappy, joy and neutral, whereas states include sleep, pacifier and open mouth. Benefiting from the expression analysis, the discomfort moments can also be used and correlated with a symptom-related disease, such as a reflux measurement for the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux. The system consists of three components infant expressions and states detection, object tracking and detection compensation. The proposed system is based on combining expression detection using Fast R-CNN with a compensated detection using analyzing information from the previous frame and utilizing a Hidden Markov Model. The experimental results show a mean average precision of 81.9% and 84.8% for 4 infant expressions and 3 states evaluated with both clinical and daily datasets. Meanwhile, the average precision for discomfort detection achieves up to 90%.In 2019, outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases reached the highest number in the US since 1992. selleck chemicals Medical misinformation, such as antivaccine content propagating through social media, is associated with increases in vaccine delay and refusal. Our overall goal is to develop an automatic detector for antivaccine messages to counteract the negative impact that antivaccine messages have on the public health. Very few extant detection systems have considered multimodality of social media posts (images, texts, and hashtags), and instead focus on textual components, despite the rapid growth of photo-sharing applications (e.g., Instagram). As a result, existing systems are not sufficient for detecting antivaccine messages with heavy visual components (e.g., images) posted on these newer platforms. To solve this problem, we propose a deep learning network that leverages both visual and textual information. A new semantic-and task-level attention mechanism was created to help our model to focus on the essential contents of a post that signal antivaccine messages. The proposed model, which consists of three branches, can generate comprehensive fused features for predictions. Moreover, an ensemble method is proposed to further improve the final prediction accuracy. To evaluate the proposed model's performance, a real-world social media dataset that consists of more than 30,000 samples was collected from Instagram between January 2016 and October 2019. Our 30 experiment results demonstrate that the final network achieves above 97% testing accuracy and outperforms other relevant models, demonstrating that it can detect a large amount of antivaccine messages posted daily.

While these aspects have long been recognized, complex-valued deep learning continues to lag far behind its real-valued counterpart. We propose a principled geometric approach to complex-valued deep learning. Complex-valued data could often be subject to arbitrary complex-valued scaling; as a result, real and imaginary components could covary. Instead of treating complex values as two independent channels of real values, we recognize their underlying geometry we model the space of complex numbers as a product manifold of nonzero scaling and planar rotations. Arbitrary complex-valued scaling naturally becomes a group of transitive actions on this manifold. We propose to extend the property instead of the form of real-valued functions to the complex domain. We define convolution as the weighted Fréchet mean on the manifold that is equivariant to the group of scaling/rotation actions and define distance transform on the manifold that is invariant to the action group. The manifold perspective also allows us to define nonlinear activation functions, such as tangent ReLU and G-transport, as well as residual connections on the manifold-valued data. We dub our model SurReal, as our experiments on MSTAR and RadioML deliver high performance with only a fractional size of real- and complex-valued baseline models.This article proposes a robust and precise localization scheme for unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) in global positioning system (GPS)-denied and GPS-challenged environments via multisensor fusion approach. The localization scheme is proposed to be under an available point-cloud map. First, initialization in localization module is designed to calculate the initial position of UGV in map using the Gaussian projection approach and obtain the frame transformation between the 3-D lidar and the inertial measurement unit (IMU). Second, the best alignment between each scan frame and the available submap is obtained, and the pose of vehicle relative to the origin of map is calculated. Third, the precise pose of UGV is well predicted by integrating the data from 3-D lidar and IMU. Fourth, in order to visually verify the proposed localization scheme, the motion of vehicle is visualized by designing the visualization module. Note that the preprocessing module aims to process the raw scan data. The availability of our proposed localization scheme is verified by conducting experiments in our campus.This paper presents a millimeter-scale crystal-less wireless transceiver for volume-constrained insertable pills. Operating in the 402-405 MHz medical implant communication service (MICS) band, the phase-tracking receiver-based over-the-air carrier recovery has a ±160 ppm coverage. A fully integrated adaptive antenna impedance matching solution is proposed to calibrate the antenna impedance variation inside the body. A tunable matching network (TMN) with single inductor performs impedance matching for both transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) and TX/RX mode switching. To dynamically calibrate the antenna impedance variation over different locations and diet conditions, a loop-back power detector using self-mixing is adopted, which expands the power contour up to 4.8 VSWR. The transceiver is implemented in a 40-nm CMOS technology, occupying 2 mm2 die area. The transceiver chip and a miniature antenna are integrated in a 3.5 × 15 mm2 area prototype wireless module. It has a receiver sensitivity of -90 dBm at 200 kbps data rate and delivers up to - 25 dBm EIRP in the wireless measurement with a liquid phantom.
