Radiological evaluation before and after treatment with an osseointegrated bone-anchor following major limb amputation —a guide for radiologists
This article acts as a guide for radiologists who may be tasked with providing the radiological information required by surgeons and prosthetists. We also look at the radiological appearances of complications that may arise in patients treated with an osseointegrated implant. Plain X-rays are used to screen patients who wish to undergo treatment. Limb-length X-rays are then used to measure the length of any residual bone, and comparisons can be made with the normal side (if present). From this, decisions about the likely size of the implant and the need for further amputation can be made. CT scans enable accurate assessmen...

Atomistic understanding of rough surface on the interfacial friction behavior during the chemical mechanical polishing process of diamond
AbstractThe roughness of the contact surface exerts a vital role in rubbing. It is still a significant challenge to understand the microscopic contact of the rough surface at the atomic level. Herein, the rough surface with a special root mean square (RMS) value is constructed by multivariate Weierstrass –Mandelbrot (W–M) function and the rubbing process during that the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process of diamond is mimicked utilizing the reactive force field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF MD) simulation. It is found that the contact areaA/A0 is positively related with the load, and the friction forceF depends o...

The effect of secondary phase on corrosion behaviors of the titanium –zirconium–molybdenum alloy
AbstractAs the range of applications for molybdenum and its alloys has expanded, the corrosive environment for molybdenum alloys has become more demanding. In the past, the content of doping elements has been studied to investigate their influence on the corrosion performance of titanium –zirconium–molybdenum (TZM) alloys. In this paper, it is considered that the second phase in the alloy is the main factor affecting the corrosion performance of TZM alloys. By comparing the corrosion behavior of molybdenum metal and TZM alloy, the effect of the secondary phase on corrosion behav iors of TZM alloy has been investigated....

A cupping spots image enhancement algorithm based on LAA-CycleGAN
AbstractDuring the automatic cupping process, a LAA-CycleGAN-based image enhancement algorithm is proposed to address the issues of reduced image clarity and loss of detail features caused by fog adhering to the surface of the can body. Firstly, the generator contains a self-attention module to capture global features of the images; secondly, the discriminator introduces an auto-encoder to generate more stable images; finally, a perceptual loss term is added to optimize the network for better perception. Experiments were conducted on the collected cupping spots dataset, and the results showed that compared with DCP, Dehaze...

A transformer-based approach for Arabic offline handwritten text recognition
AbstractHandwriting recognition is a challenging and critical problem in the fields of pattern recognition and machine learning, with applications spanning a wide range of domains. In this paper, we focus on the specific issue of recognizing offline Arabic handwritten text. Existing approaches typically utilize a combination of convolutional neural networks for image feature extraction and recurrent neural networks for temporal modeling, with connectionist temporal classification used for text generation. However, these methods suffer from a lack of parallelization due to the sequential nature of recurrent neural networks....

Effects of vertical and horizontal plyometric training on jump performances and sprint force –velocity profile in young elite soccer players
ConclusionsBoth horizontal and vertical plyometric training can be either used in young soccer players to improve vertical and horizontal performances in jump and sprint. However, horizontal plyometric training may result in a greater improvement in horizontal ballistic actions while similarly developing vertical jump qualities compared to vertical plyometric training in young soccer players.

Domain generalization for video anomaly detection considering diverse anomaly types
AbstractIn intelligent video surveillance, anomaly detection is conducted to identify the occurrence of abnormal events by monitoring the video captured by vision sensors, and it has important application value in public safety, industrial production process monitoring, and other fields. However, the study of video anomaly detection (VAD) models that generalize into uncharted territory remains challenging. The current approach is to use more abnormal samples to enhance the training and improve the generalization ability of the model, but this requires a large number of auxiliary datasets to fully describe the abnormal even...

Hamiltonian deep neural network fostered sentiment analysis approach on product reviews
AbstractIn recent times, online shopping has become commonly used method for consumers to make purchases and engage in consumption with the rapid advancement of Internet technology. Enhancing user satisfaction is achievable through sentiment analysis (SA) of the enormous user evaluations found on e-commerce platforms. However, accurately predicting the sentiment orientations of these user reviews remains a challenge due to varying sequence lengths, text arrangements, and intricate logic. Nowadays, sentiment analysis is widely employed to assess customer feedback, which holds great significance in determining a product's su...

A deep learning interatomic potential suitable for simulating radiation damage in bulk tungsten
AbstractSo far, it has been a challenge for existing interatomic potentials to accurately describe a wide range of physical properties and maintain reasonable efficiency. In this work, we develop an interatomic potential for simulating radiation damage in body-centered cubic tungsten by employing deep potential, a neural network-based deep learning model for representing the potential energy surface. The resulting potential predicts a variety of physical properties consistent with first-principles calculations, including phonon spectrum, thermal expansion, generalized stacking fault energies, energetics of free surfaces, p...

A Recognition-Based Study of Frustrations, Risks, and Navigation in Career Transition Among Educationally Disadvantaged Young Women
This study examined the career transition journey of educationally disadvantaged young women from a recognition perspective in the context of risk society. By means of purposive sampling, 12 young women aged between 18 and 24 who had dropped out from junior or senior secondary school were sampled basing on their social status and family ’s socioeconomic status. With the use of thematic analysis, the study thoroughly examined 12 transcripts collected from individual interviews. The results showed the career transition journey of the participants in five distinctive aspects, namely, (1) striving for recognition, confrontin...

Walking net $$\dot{V}$$ O2 rises with advancing age in older women: where to go from here?
ConclusionThese data support the premise that, in older women, walking net\(\dot{V}\)O2 rises with advancing age, and additionally, the RTD:MVC ratio and PFROM are independent correlates of non-graded net\(\dot{V}\)O2. Exercise interventions with a high degree of training specificity including explosive, velocity-based elements may promote independent mobility in older women.
