BACKGROUND: In recent years, the incidence of cognitive diseases has also risen with the significant increase in population aging. Among these diseases, Alzheimer disease constitutes a substantial proportion, placing a high-cost burden on health care... read more
Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong performance in natural language tasks, but their capacity for genuine in-context learning (ICL) in scientific regression remains unclear. We systematically assessed seven LLMs on molecular property pred... read more
Single-shot fs laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has the potential to capture ns-scale electrode desorption phenomena in pulsed power fusion drivers. However, the successful implementation of the diagnostic for this purpose is challenging, ... read more
Miniaturized lenses with a large depth of field and high imaging quality are desirable for compact optical systems, as they eliminate the need for lens switching and repeated refocusing. Metalenses, composed of flat, subwavelength nanostructures, are... read more
For phase retrieval in a coherent beam combining of 7 fiber amplifiers arranged in a tiled aperture experiment, we demonstrate the feasibility of direct implementation of a light-weight deep-learning model trained on simulated data only. Deep-learnin... read more
Hopfield neural networks, classic examples of associative memories, are well-established models for pattern storage and retrieval. However, the original Hopfield network, characterized by quadratic interactions among neurons, exhibits limited storage... read more
Propagation-based X-ray phase-contrast imaging (PB-XPCI) can produce high-resolution images of soft tissue. However, this usually requires extracting the phase shift from intensity measurement at a single propagation distance through phase retrieval-... read more

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis significantly threatens patient survival and remains a condition with limited effective treatment options. There is an urgent need to expedite the exploration of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis mechanisms and i... read more
The use of machine learning (ML) is reshaping the design and optimization of nanofiber-based drug delivery systems (N-DDS). Electrospun nanofibers offer high surface area, tunable porosity, and versatile drug encapsulation strategies, making them att... read more
OBJECTIVE: Arrhythmia classification from electrocardiograms (ECGs) suffers from high false positive rates and limited cross-dataset generalization, particularly for atrial fibrillation detection where specificity ranges from 0.72 to 0.98 using conve... read more
