The detection of concrete spalling is critical for tunnel inspectors to assess structural risks and guarantee the daily operation of the railway tunnel. However, traditional spalling detection methods mostly rely on visual inspection or camera images...
While laser ablation has become an increasingly important tool in the neurosurgical oncologist's armamentarium, deep seated lesions, and those located near critical structures require utmost accuracy during stereotactic laser catheter placement. Robo...
In this study, a simple and effective method for accurate determination of lithium in brine samples was developed by the combination of laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and convolutional neural network (CNN). Our results clearly demonstrat...
BACKGROUND: Laser-interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is an ablative treatment based on a surgically implanted laser-emitting catheter to induce a focal ablation of the pathological tissue. The main indications in neurosurgery are primary brain tumor...
In modern production environments, advanced and intelligent process monitoring strategies are required to enable an unambiguous diagnosis of the process situation and thus of the final component quality. In addition, the ability to recognize the curr...
There have been significant advances regarding target detection in the autonomous vehicle context. To develop more robust systems that can overcome weather hazards as well as sensor problems, the sensor fusion approach is taking the lead in this cont...

We propose computing primitive for an all-optical spiking neural network (SNN) based on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) for supervised learning by using biologically plausible mechanisms. The spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) ...
Due to the recurrent small spills, oil pollution along coastal regions is still a major environmental issue. Standardized oil fingerprinting techniques are useful for oil spill identifications, but time- and resource-consuming. There have been ongoin...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Mucosal healing (MH) is associated with a stable course of Crohn's disease (CD) which can be assessed by confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE). To minimize the operator's errors and automate assessment of CLE images, we used a deep...
Neural progenitor cells generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are the forefront of ″brain-on-chip″ investigations. Viable and functional hiPSC-derived neuronal networks are shaping powerful models for evaluating the normal and...
