    Abstract Medical trainees depend on diverse visual reference material to develop diagnostic pattern-recognition skills, yet such material is often limited in diversity and accessibility. This paper presents a classifier-in-the-loop generative framework for synthesising realistic histopathology images: a Stable Diffusion v1.5 model is fine-tuned using Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) on the PathMNIST dataset, consisting of nine colorectal […]

    Abstract The number of diabetes patients is increasing worldwide, but many cases stay undiagnosed in low-resource regions. The A1C blood test is invasive and costly, therefore it is often not available in these regions. In this research, DiaBreath is proposed as a low-cost noninvasive screening system based on exhaled breath analysis. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) […]

    Abstract Digital commerce platforms compete with local vendors under frictions of time, price, and visibility. We test whether an interpretable choice model with reinforcement and social influence can yield substantial changes in aggregate market share as control parameters vary. We simulate repeated customer choice among vendors using a utility function that combines vendor attributes (price, […]

    Abstract Local businesses are important to neighborhood service access, but access to these services is limited in some areas. This study uses GIS and machine learning to identify possible limited service zones for restaurants and supermarkets across Dublin, Pleasanton, and Livermore in Alameda County, California. The model dataset included 1,134 Alameda County census block groups, […]

    Abstract The design and visualization of a satellite communication network for space objects identification will embrace cargo transfers and human missions in space. This study investigated the creation of a multistrom cluster of satellites keeping as core idea future potential dynamic rearrangement and the establishment of bidirectional communication between satellites and the earth. Model simulations […]

    Abstract Formaldehyde (HCHO) is a long-lasting contaminant that can be emitted by interior materials and causes irritation to the respiratory system and may lead to cancer. Normal wall coverings are unable to trap HCHO and can emit VOCs. There are substantial amounts of sawdust from wood processing and lignin-rich black liquor from the paper industry. […]

    Abstract Dry eye disease (DED) is a chronic condition, affecting the tear film layers of the eye, that has a global prevalence of up to 50%. Currently, treatment focuses on managing symptoms and contributing factors, because there is no established cure. Scleral lenses are an effective but underused treatment for DED. Due to their high […]

    Abstract Climate change is one of the most pressing environmental issues of our time. Scientists and policymakers are seeking sustainable, affordable ways to reduce CO2 and other greenhouse gases to mitigate climate change. One notable solution for carbon sequestration is algae. In this experiment, we hypothesized that CO2-absorbing algae would most effectively mitigate atmospheric CO2 […]

    Abstract Stars in the universe do not always have planets revolving around them, raising a question about the factors that influence planet formation in both positive and negative ways. This literature review elaborates and explores reasons why some stars can’t host planetary systems. To investigate, NASA websites and astronomical articles were used. There is a […]

    Abstract Protein stability depends on storage temperature, solution composition, and concentration. This study tested how a 25 mg/mL solution prepared with commercial β-galactosidase (lactase) powder preserved its activity after a short room-temperature exposure and whether glycerol, a common protein stabilizer, helped retain activity under the same temperature treatment. Each of the three independently prepared blocks […]

    Abstract The widespread use of smartphones has made it common for amateur players to record table tennis matches. However, active gameplay can account for less than half of the recording time (about 40% in our annotated match recordings), making manual review and highlight creation time-consuming. This study describes a machine learning system that automatically generates […]

    Abstract Background/Objectives: The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence (AI) workloads is increasing the power density and thermal-management burden of data centers. This study evaluates whether a hybrid small modular reactor (SMR), solar photovoltaic (PV), battery-storage, and advanced-cooling configuration can internally balance high-density AI demand under clearly stated modelling assumptions. Methods: A deterministic, scenario-based model was […]

    Abstract Sudoku, with its complex combinatorial structure, provides a natural NP-hard benchmark for testing optimization models. In this study, we quantitatively compare Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) and Higher-Order Binary Optimization (HOBO). While QUBO is compatible with quantum computers, it is often evaluated on classical simulators known as quantum simulators which calculates with tensor network […]

    Abstract Does a high school student’s family characteristics and ethnicity affect their rate of suspension? Racial disparities in suspension rates are well documented and two conflicting explanations are prevalent in previous literature. The first attributes the gap to differences in socioeconomic status and a student’s situation. The other suggests that institutional factors cause this disparity. […]
