    Syn4MD: Aiding Medical Diagnosis through Image Synthesis and Classification
    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 […]

    DiaBreath: Multivariate Analysis of a Non-Selective Low-Cost Metal Oxide (MOX) Sensor Array for Breath-Based Diabetes Screening
    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) […]

    A Statistical Physics Approach to Market Dynamics: Regime Shifts in Digital vs. Local Vendor Choice
    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, […]

    Predicting Limited Service Zones Using GIS-Integrated Machine Learning: A Case Study of Three Cities
    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, […]

    Rhythmicity Index: Signifying Shape Consistency in Addition to Phase Consistency
    Abstract The Q-factor, calculated from the power spectrum, is a common identifier of oscillation in neural and excitable-media signals, yet it does not guarantee that the shape of the wave repeats. In fact, on a simulated signal generator based on the Greenberg–Hastings excitable model on Erdős–Rényi networks with N = 20,000 and mean degree K […]

    Comparative Review of Gene Therapy Strategies for Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)
    Abstract Background/Objective: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most common inherited blood disorders worldwide, concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa and, within that region, Nigeria. Conventional management reduces complications but does not correct the mutation, and transplantation is limited by donor availability. Three autologous gene-therapy platforms — CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing, lentiviral gene addition, and base […]

    Gravitational Lensing Morphology in Controlled Strong-Lensing Simulations: Effects of Lens Geometry, Source Position, and External Shear
    Abstract In strong gravitational lensing, the projected mass density (Σ/Σcrit = κ) and mapping of lens-source (θ – α(θ) = β) move the system to the high magnification regime, leading to the creation of arcs, rings, and multiple images. The present study investigates the effect of these five parameters, namely θₑ, e₁, e₂, β and […]

    Under What Conditions Is Local Differential Privacy Preferable to Central Differential Privacy? A Synthetic Study of Online Advertising Campaign Measurement
    Abstract The rapid development of online advertising systems in recent years has significantly increased their reliance on user data for analysis. Although personalized advertising enhances user experience and advertising effectiveness, large-scale information collection has made people concerned about user privacy and unauthorized user profiling. Differential privacy (DP) is a recent method used to protect individual […]

    The Economics of Efficiency: How Energy Performance Shapes Capital Formation in AI Infrastructure
    Abstract AI depends on data centers, which need large amounts of electricity and capital to build. Energy efficiency at these facilities is usually treated as an engineering question, but it may also shape how that construction is financed. This review asks whether Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), the standard efficiency metric, affects cash flow, collateral value, […]

    Colorimetric Assay of Commercial Lactase Solution Under Different Storage and Solution Conditions
    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 […]

    Automated Highlight Generation of Amateur Table Tennis Videos Using Machine Learning
    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 […]

    Improving Single-Engine Aircraft Safety Through Evolutionary Neural Networks
    Abstract Engine failure in a single-engine aircraft removes all thrust and leaves the pilot with one option: glide as far as possible while looking for a place to land. Standard practice is to hold a fixed best-glide speed taken from the aircraft handbook, but holding a constant target by hand is difficult, and earlier work […]

    Numerical Exploration of HOBO vs. QUBO: Using Sudoku as a Benchmark
    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 […]

    Unequal Punishments: The Effects of Family Characteristics and Ethnicity on Student Suspension
    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. […]
