Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) significantly increase patient mortality and healthcare burden, with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) exacerbating the challenge through diverse transmission routes, posing a global public health threat. Tradi... read more
Objective.Accurate detection of single-trial P300 ERPs (event-related potentials) is crucial for developing high-performance non-invasive BCIs (brain-computer interfaces). However, this task remains challenging because of the low (signal-to-noise rat... read more
Achieving large initial coil pitches and contractile strokes in twisted and coiled polymer artificial muscles often requires complex and multi-step fabrication processes. We present a self-induced large-pitch (SLiP) method for producing polymer muscl... read more
Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are increasingly integrated into clinical workflows; however, prompt injection attacks can steer these systems toward clinically unsafe or misleading outputs. We introduce ... read more
Kabuki syndrome (KS) and Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (WSS) are rare but distinct developmental disorders that share overlapping clinical features, including neurodevelopmental delay, growth restriction, and persistent fetal fingertip pads. While genet... read more
Surgical navigation based on multimodal image registration has played a significant role in providing intraoperative guidance to surgeons by showing the relative position of the target area to critical anatomical structures during surgery. However, d... read more
In this paper, we summarize the methods and results of our submission to the LUMIR25 challenge in Learn2Reg 2025, which achieved 1st place overall on the test set. Extended from LUMIR24, this year's task focuses on zero-shot registration under domain... read more
With the advancement of deep learning technologies, specialized neural processing hardware such as Brain Processing Units (BPUs) have emerged as dedicated platforms for CNN acceleration, offering optimized INT8 computation capabilities for convolutio... read more
Recently, Segment Anything Model (SAM) has demonstrated strong generalizability in various instance segmentation tasks. However, its performance is severely dependent on the quality of manual prompts. In addition, the RGB images that instance segment... read more
