BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Interpretation of urodynamic studies (UDS) is essential for the assessment of lower urinary tract dysfunction but remains resource-intensive and highly operator-dependent. Artificial intelligence (AI) has increasingly been a... read more
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) drive tumour initiation, progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance through their remarkable plasticity, enabling dynamic transitions between stem-like and differentiated states. A pivotal mechanism underlying this plast... read more
BACKGROUND: Timely extubation requires advanced expertise and extensive clinical experience; however, intensive care specialists are scarce globally, and interpreting ventilator graphic monitor waveforms can be challenging for less experienced health... read more
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia affecting millions of patients globally. While epigenetic modifications play a significant role in cardiovascular diseases, their contribution to AF remains incompletely understood. Annexin ... read more
BACKGROUND: Predicting pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy (NACI) in locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) remains challenging. This study aimed to develop a non-invasive predictive model by integrating intr... read more
Sparse-view 3D reconstruction is increasingly addressed with feed-forward splatting networks that predict explicit primitives directly from images. Yet most existing methods remain centered on Gaussian primitives and expose surfaces only indirectly: ... read more
Subject-driven image generation aims to synthesize new images that preserve the identity of the given subject while following textual instructions. Existing approaches often encode text and reference images separately. This limits cross-modal reasoni... read more
Current video-to-4D methods struggle with complex topology changes, transparent materials, thin structures, and inner surfaces. We present Helix4D, a dynamic mesh generation framework by inheriting the expressive representation of Trellis2, adapting ... read more
Recent advances in few-step diffusion distillation have enabled efficient image generation, yet aligning these models with human preferences remains challenging. We propose Reward-Tilted Distribution Matching Distillation (RTDMD), a two-stage framewo... read more
Structure-from-Motion -- the process of simultaneously estimating camera poses and 3D scene structure from a collection of images -- remains a central challenge in computer vision, with many open problems yet to be solved. Recent advances in feedforw... read more
