Purpose: To compare the responses of types 1 (sub-pigment epithelial) and 2 (subretinal) neovascularization in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment.Methods: Fifty-five treatment-naïve AMD eyes (53 patients) were retrospectively included for analysis. All patients treated with three loading injections anti-VEGF agent, followed by further as required. The lesion size vascular density type lesions before after treatment...

The increasing water temperature due to climate change has led more frequent algae blooms and deteriorating quality in coastal areas rivers worldwide. To address this, we developed a deep learning-based model for identifying floating using PlanetScope optical images the Shifted Windows (Swin) Transformer architecture. We created 1,998 datasets from 105 scenes of imagery collected between 2018 2023, covering 14 bodies known blooms. methodology included data pre-processing, dataset generation,...

Landslide areas have the limitation of less distinct spectral characteristics compared to other land cover types.To address this, combining information provided by satellite imagery with types can improve performance deep learning-based landslide detection.This study analyzes differences a learning model when various combinations information, vegetation topographic and texture are used.The used in this is Swin Transformer, which known for its high detection, along PlanetScope data that...

Diet planning is a basic and regular human activity. Previous studies have considered diet combinatorial optimization problem to generate solutions that satisfy diet's nutritional requirements. However, this approach does not consider the composition of diets, which critical for recipients' accept enjoy menus with high quality. Without consideration, feasible could be provided in practice. This suggests necessity machine learning, extracts implicit patterns from real data applies these when...

Image-based 3D object detection is one of the important and difficult problems in autonomous driving robotics, aims to find represent location, dimension orientation interest. It generates three dimensional (3D) bounding boxes with only 2D images obtained from cameras, so there no need for devices that provide accurate depth information such as LiDAR or Radar. methods can be divided into main categories: monocular, stereo, multi-view detection. In this paper, we investigate recent...

To investigate the association between retinal vascular occlusion and vaccination against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

This paper presents an in-kernel, hardware-based control-flow integrity (CFI) protection, called PAL, that utilizes ARM's Pointer Authentication (PA). It provides three important benefits over commercial, state-of-the-art PA-based CFIs like iOS's: 1) enhancing CFI precision via automated refinement techniques, 2) addressing hindsight problems of PA for in kernel uses such as preemptive hijacking and brute-forcing attacks, 3) assuring the algorithmic or implementation correctness post...

본 연구의 목적은 수학 영역에서 어려운 과제를 수행할 때 영재 학생의 흥미와 수행 수준을 향상시킬 수 있는 개인의 심리적 특성이 무엇인지 탐색하는 것이다. 이에 학생에게 해당 학년의 수학과 교육과정에서 과제와 쉬운 제공하고 인지 욕구와 위험 감수 성향의 수준에 따라 과제 수행이 어떻게 달라지는지 살펴보았다. 실험에는 서울시 교육청 영재교육원 초등학교 5, 6학년 학생 174명이 참여했으며 참여자들은 집단과 집단에 무선 할당되었다. 이 중 155명을 대상으로 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 초등 시기의 영재는 일반 학생들처럼 점수가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 욕구가 높은 과제에서도 과제만큼 흥미를 수준으로 유지하는 것을 확인하였다. 특히 여학생 집단에서 유의미하게 나타나 교육의 입문기인 교육에서 욕구의 중요성을 시사하였다. 또한, 성향은 난이도가 수행에 미치는 영향을 조절하지 않았는데, 이는 집단이 창의적 성향보다는 학업 우수아의 특성을 가진다는 점을 시사한다.

This study explored novel immunomodulatory approaches for cancer treatment, with a specific focus on lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. We synthesized indole-based phospholipase D (PLD) inhibitors various substituents to improve anticancer efficacy. Through structure–activity relationship studies, key compound was identified that significantly inhibiting PLD, suppressing cell growth, viability, and migration in vitro, while inducing apoptosis cells. In silico...

ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel approach to estimating censored quantile regression using inverse probability of censoring weighted (IPCW) methodology, specifically tailored for data sets featuring partially interval‐censored data. Such sets, often encountered in HIV/AIDS and cancer biomedical research, may include doubly (DC) partly (PIC) endpoints. DC responses involve either left‐censoring or right‐censoring alongside some exact failure time observations, while PIC are subject...

This study investigates the impact of teacher questioning on creative thinking among sixth-grade elementary school students over a ten-week period. A diverse range question types, covering various topics, was used to stimulate both general creativity and specific subtypes. The findings reveal three key outcomes. First, level in student responses varied based topic targeted subtype. Questions extracurricular topics those aimed at promoting flexibility elicited with higher creativity. Second,...
