Traditional hepatology conceptualizes liver cirrhosis as the linear accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM). However, the stagnation of fibrosis reversal and the persistent risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) despi...

Este trabalho discute os efeitos das mudanças do uso do solo na biogequímica dos rios da bacia de drenagem do rio Ji-Paraná (Rondônia). Nesta região, a distribuição espacial do desmatamento e das propriedades do s...

High-voltage cable systems are critical components of power transmission networks, where partial discharge (PD) can cause insulation degradation and severe operational failures. Accurate detection and reliable identifica...

Abstract Background Signal divergence and sensory preferences may cause reproductive isolation and eventually speciation between animal populations. These patterns are particularly well known in systems with acoustic or ...

Power transformers are critical components of power systems, and their safe and reliable operation is essential for both industrial and residential applications. Real-time condition monitoring and early fault detection a...

Understanding neural responses to varying physical loads is essential for developing ergonomic designs. Conventional methods for analyzing peripheral muscle activity, such as electromyography (EMG) and kinematic analysis...

Abstract Quantifying luminescence signal resetting of sand grains in turbid waters is essential for both sediment dating and tracing, yet direct measurement under natural subaqueous conditions remain scarce. Here, we pre...

The use of unmanned aircraft systems to collect data for photogrammetry models has grown significantly in recent years. The accuracy of a photogrammetric model can depend on image georeferencing. The distance from a refe...

IntroductionRecent research has highlighted the role of the gut microbiome in shaping the development and function of the mammalian immune system. Interactions between these complex networks of microbes and host cells se...

Abstract Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSS) are increasingly being used in telecommunications systems due to the numerous advantages presented by this sort of structure, among them low cost, ease of fabrication, and low ...

Many real-life signals and, in particular, in the space physics domain, exhibit variations acrossdifferent temporal scales. Hence, their statistical momenta may depend on the time scale at which the signal is studied. To...

The temporal dynamics in biological systems displays a wide range of behaviors, from periodic oscillations, as in rhythms, bursts, long-range (fractal) correlations, chaotic dynamics up to brown and white noise. Herein, ...

Context. Co-orbital objects, also known as Trojans, are celestial bodies that share a 1:1 mean motion resonance orbit with a planet. Many planets in our Solar System hold Trojans, yet none has been confirmed in exoplanet...

Abstract This paper presents an eyebolt structural fault detection system, based on the analysis of multiple electromagnetic parameters through a random forest classifier trained by both measurements and high-fidelity si...

Knee-related conditions, such as anterior cruciate ligament injuries and meniscal ruptures, significantly affect mobility and quality of life. Although range-of-motion exercises are important for rehabilitation, interpre...

Abstract Collaborative filtering and neural recommendation models have advanced substantially over the past decade, yet they frequently struggle to capture the fine-grained structure of user preferences and the rich, mul...

Recent advances in computer vision and deep learning, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), have significantly increased road safety. CNNs were used in this work to automatically detect and categorise traffi...

This work presents a hybrid deep learning approach for identifying students who are likely to experience academic difficulties in virtual learning environments. The proposed framework is evaluated on the Open University ...

The brain exhibits a wide variety of spatiotemporal patterns of neuronal activity recorded using functional magnetic resonance imaging as the so-called blood-oxygenated-level–dependent (BOLD) signal. An active area of ...

IntroductionDigital traceability is essential to ensure the transparency of the agricultural supply chain. However, manufacturers face a key strategic dilemma: the high initial investment cost hinders the investment in t...

Falls among older adults pose a major healthcare and social burden, making early identification of high-risk individuals essential for prevention. This study presents a portable, non-invasive AI-based wearable system tha...

Heterogeneous SoCs enhance system performance across various applications. However, managing and integrating components, interfacing hardware and software, and overseeing shared resources pose significant challenges for ...

Abstract This paper presents the propagation channel characteristics of a digital TV single-frequency network (SFN) obtained by carrying out field measurements using two synchronized transmitters. The measurements are pe...

Background: Copper (Cu) is an essential trace metal used as a catalytic cofactor for many enzymes. However, it can have nocive effects when it participates in the Fenton reaction, producing reactive oxygen species (ROS)....
