Since electroencephalogram (EEG) signals can truly reflect human emotional state, emotion recognition based on EEG has turned into a critical branch in the field of artificial intelligence. Aiming at disparity various states, we propose new deep learning model named three-dimension convolution attention neural network (3DCANN) for this paper. The 3DCANN is composed spatio-temporal feature extraction module and channel weight module, which extract dynamic relation well among multi-channel...
Medical image segmentation and classification are two of the most key steps in computer-aided clinical diagnosis. The region interest were usually segmented a proper manner to extract useful features for further disease classification. However, these methods computationally complex time-consuming. In this paper, we proposed one-stage multi-task attention network (MTANet) which efficiently classifies objects an while generating high-quality mask each medical object. A reverse addition module...
Background: Vast spatial mobility changes happened globally during the COVID-19 pandemic, profoundly affecting older adults’ well-being and active aging experience. This study aims to examine how virtual environment cyberspace, in conjunction with physical social neighbourhood environments, influence outdoor activities for immigrants. Methods: Four online focus groups were conducted 25 Chinese immigrants aged 65 over Greater Toronto Area, Canada. The explored coping strategies pandemic...
The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of biological characteristics hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) v2017 category contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in patients with high risk compare outcomes among different categories after radical resection.Between June 2017 December 2020, standardized CEUS data liver nodules were prospectively collected from multiple centers across China. We conducted a retrospective analysis HCCs...

Research The body composition model is closely related to the physiological characteristics of human body. At same time there can be a large number characteristics, many which may redundant or irrelevant. In existing feature selection algorithms, it difficult overcome impact that redundancy and irrelevancy have on modeling. This suggests role for where are identified using combination filtering improved clustering. To do this, method based Hilbert-Schmidt dependency criteria first all used...
Auxiliary differential equation finite-difference time domain (ADE-FDTD) expressions of drude dispersive medium model are applied to simulate stealth characteristics metamaterials coating. Then, simulated annealing algorithm is used optimize electromagnetic parameters considered include coating, collision frequency and coating thickness. The results show that monostatic RCS metal cylinder covering with metamaterial can reduce 6.3dB bistatic shrink 0.1dB less than before. Simulated play an...
Using games to teach is an interesting and worthwhile practice; however, the couplet game has not been described before. In this study, first-year students played a with their teacher at end of course. Each student was asked summarize write individual opinions on human geography in one keyword; then, wrote corresponding or matching keywords. Analyzing correspondences contrasts between couples words, showed improved understanding geography. The results suggested that elicited students’...
Fetal weight is an important factor to determine the delivery mode of pregnant women. The change fetal significant, according regular health monitoring Conventional methods estimation, namely those based on B-ultrasound, are very complicated and costs high. In this paper, we propose a new method body composition. An abdominal four-segment impedance model first established upon women, as well calculation. A composition then given estimate weight, with solution explicitly. Analyses clinical...
The effectiveness of public health measures in containing an infectious disease largely depends on how the general is taking prevention practices daily lives. Previous studies have shown that different risk perceptions and sociodemographic characteristics may lead to vastly behaviors. This paper applies a temporal perspective examining changing patterns over time their dynamic relationships with perceived towards COVID-19 its individual characteristics. Three key timelines (February, April,...
Abstract Objectives: To compare the prognosis, complication and cosmetic results of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) with those breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for 2-5cm BC patients. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in two academic centers, which enrolled 224 invasive patients treated MWA (n=39) or BCS (n=185) from November 2015 to February 2022. Propensity score matching (PSM) performed at 1:2 baseline characteristics were well balanced between (n=32)...
Purpose Depicting the development pattern of vowel perception for children with normal hearing (NH) and cochlear implants (CIs) would be useful clinicians school teachers to monitor children's auditory rehabilitation. The study was investigate Mandarin Chinese native-speaking ages 4-6 years. Method Vowel identification NH CIs were tested. All received before age 4 In a picture task speech stimuli, listeners identified target consonant-vowel word among two four contrastive words that differed...
To ascertain the clinical outcomes of patients aged ≥65 years with staging T1 (cT1) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treated percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) under ultrasound control compared those <65.From September 2009 to December 2016, data two groups, Group O (≥ 65 years) consisting 75 (76 RCCs) and Y (< 91 (99 RCCs), who underwent MWA treatment for RCC comparable mean diameters at baseline, were retrospectively evaluated. The methodological effectiveness, cumulative overall survival...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global pandemic since its outbreak in December 2019, which posed threat to the safety and well-being of people on scale. Cancer patients are at high risk severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, their critical morbidity case fatality rates high. ablation expert committee Chinese Society Clinical Oncology compiled corresponding recommendations. These recommendations summarize preventive measures management tumor treatment...
Abstract Background: To investigate the effect of difference in C 2-7 angle (C A) on dysphagia after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with Zero-P Implant System. Methods: A retrospective analysis 181 patients who underwent ACDF System had at least one year follow-up was performed from January 2011 to November 2018. All were divided into a non-dysphagia group explore between postoperative preoperative As (dC dysphagia. Furthermore, other possible related factors including O-C 2...
HJ-1B Infrared Scanner (IRS) has accumulated long-term data, but there are no comparative studies on land surface temperature (LST) inversion algorithms for IRS data.
