The increasing challenges of agricultural processes and the growing demand for food globally are driving industrial agriculture sector to adopt concept 'smart farming'. Smart farming systems, with their real-time management high level automation, can greatly improve productivity, safety, efficiency in agri-food supply chain. This paper presents a customized smart system that uses low-cost, low-power, wide-range wireless sensor network based on Internet Things (IoT) Long Range (LoRa)...
In this report we evaluate an image registration technique that can improve the information content of intraoperative data by deformable matching preoperative images. study, pretreatment 1.5 tesla (T) magnetic resonance (MR) images prostate are registered with 0.5 T The method involves rigid and nonrigid using biomechanical finite element modeling. Preoperative MR imaging is conducted patient supine, endorectal coil, while intraoperatively, in lithotomy position a rectal obturator place. We...

Data scarcity is a common and challenging issue when working with Artificial Intelligence solutions, especially those including Deep Learning (DL) models for tasks such as image classification. This particularly relevant in healthcare scenarios, which data collection requires long-lasting process, involving specific control protocols. The performance of DL usually quantified by different classification metrics, may provide biased results, due to the lack sufficient data. In this paper, an...
Thermography enables non-invasive, accessible, and easily repeated foot temperature measurements for diabetic patients, promoting early detection regular monitoring protocols, that limit the incidence of disabling conditions associated with disorders. The establishment this application into standard care protocols requires to overcome technical issues, particularly sole segmentation. In work we implemented evaluated several segmentation approaches which include conventional Deep Learning...
Diabetes mellitus presents a high prevalence around the world. A common and long-term derived complication is diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), which have global of roughly 6.3%, lifetime incidence up to 34%. Infrared thermograms, covering entire plantar aspect both feet, can be employed monitor risk developing ulcer, because patients exhibit an abnormal pattern that may indicate disorder. In this study, publicly available INAOE dataset composed thermogram images healthy subjects was extract...
Diabetic foot ulcers represent the most frequently recognized and highest risk factor among patients affected by diabetes mellitus. The associated recurrent rate is high, amputation of or lower limb often required due to infection. Analysis infrared thermograms covering entire plantar aspect both feet considered an emerging area research focused on identifying at early stage underlying conditions that sustain skin tissue damage prior onset superficial wounds. identification disorders using...
In this article, a new efficient and robust approach—the high-resolution microwave imaging system—for early breast cancer diagnosis is presented. The core concept of the proposed approach to employ combination newly delay-and-sum (DAS) algorithm specific absorption rate (SAR) parameter provide high image quality tumors, along with fast processing. enhances tumor response by altering referring distance between antenna in conventional DAS matrices. This adjustment entails much clearer...
The aim of this work is to provide a methodology model the dielectric properties human tissues based on phantoms prepared with an aqueous solution, in semi-solid form, by using off-the-shelf components. Polyvinyl alcohol cryogel (PVA-C) has been employed as novel gelling agent fabrication for microwave applications wide frequency range, from 500 MHz 20 GHz. Agar-based and deionized water have also manufactured comparison purposes. Mathematical models dependent sucrose concentration are...
Abstract A precise and thorough methodology is presented for the design fabrication of bimodal phantoms to be used in medical microwave ultrasound applications. Dielectric acoustic properties human soft tissues were simultaneously mimicked. The fabricated using polyvinyl alcohol cryogel (PVA-C) as gelling agent at a 10% concentration. Sucrose was employed control dielectric spectrum, whereas cellulose scatterer ultrasound. For microwaves, mathematical model extracted calculate complex...

Preliminary results show potential method in comparison other powerful reduction filters on test bed comprising obstetrics...
This work presents a revision of four different registration methods for thermal infrared and visible images captured by camera-based prototype the remote monitoring diabetic foot. uses low cost off-the-shelf available sensors in spectra. Four (Geometric Optical Translation, Homography, Iterative Closest Point, Affine transform with Gradient Descent) have been implemented analyzed obtained from both sensors. All algorithms’ performances were evaluated using Simultaneous Truth Performance...
