This work proposes, for the first time, an image-based end-to-end self-normalization framework for positron emission tomography (PET) using conditional generative adversarial networks (cGANs).We evaluated different approaches by exploring each of the...
This study explores the use of neural networks (NNs) as surrogate models for Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations in predicting the dose-averaged linear energy transfer (LET) of protons in proton-beam therapy based on the planned dose distribution and patien...
This research examines the seismic hazard impact on railway infrastructure along the U.S. West Coast (Washington, Oregon and California), using machine learning to explore how measures of seismic hazard such as fault density, earthquake frequency, an...
Urban fragmented vegetable fields offer fresh produce but pose a potential risk of heavy metal (HM) exposure. Thus, this study investigated HM sources and health risks in the soil-vegetable systems of Chongqing's central urban area. Results indicated...
Ensuring the interpretability of machine learning models in chemical engineering remains challenging due to inherent limitations and data quality issues, hindering their reliable application. In this study, a qualitatively implicit knowledge-guided m...

PROBLEMS: Raman spectroscopy has emerged as an effective technique that can be used for noninvasive breast cancer analysis. However, the current Raman prediction models fail to cover all the molecular sub-types of breast cancer, and lack the visualiz...
Deep learning, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), has advanced positron emission tomography (PET) image reconstruction. However, it requires extensive, high-quality training datasets. Unsupervised learning methods, such as deep image ...
Gas stations not only serve as sites for oil storage and refueling but also as locations where vehicles frequently brake, significantly enriching the surrounding soil with potentially toxic elements (PTEs). Herein, 117 topsoil samples from gas statio...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The dosage of daptomycin is usually based on body weight. However, it has been shown that this approach yields too high an exposure in obese patients. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic indexes (PK/PD) have been proposed fo...
