Stress, as a reaction to threatening situations, can raise heart rate and result in serious conditions that might cause significant damage or even be life-threatening. Traditional methods for evaluating stress, which rely on subjective self-reporting and clinical assessments, often suffer from biases and inconsistencies. Artificial intelligence models have been explored to predict stress levels more accurately. This paper investigates the application of Extreme Gradient Boosting in classifying psychological stress using the WESAD dataset, which includes parameters such as acceleration, electrocardiogram, electromyography, electrodermal activity, temperature, and respiration. The dataset was balanced and sampled to create a manageable subset for experimental. Extreme Gradient Boosting was chosen for its efficiency and scalability in handling complex datasets. The model was trained and validated, achieving a 95% accuracy in predicting stress levels. This study highlights the potential of integrating Extreme Gradient Boosting models into wearable devices for real-time stress monitoring. Future work involves optimizing the model to utilize fewer sensors without decreasing accuracy, ensuring it can be integrated into portable/wearable systems using tiny microcontrollers.

This research article presents a modified isolated SEPIC converter suitable for high-power applications. It uses a transformer instead of coupled inductor for isolation between the input power source and the output load. The steady-state analysis is explained in detail. Thermal loss analysis is performed by using PLECS software. Further, a hardware prototype is developed to verify the performance aspects of the proposed converter.

Non-invasive vibration measurements from the knee offer a convenient and affordable alternative to benchtop or biomechanics lab joint health monitoring systems. Recently, joint acoustic emissions (JAEs) measured from the knee were shown to be an indicator of knee health. However, the origin of JAEs is still not fully understood, which limits its acceptance and use by clinical experts. In this proof-of-concept study, rather than relying on the movements of the knee and corresponding frictional rubbing of internal surfaces to produce vibrations, we propose using an active vibration sensing approach with a known vibration source interrogating the knee. We aim to elucidate the linkage between knee vibration characteristics and structural changes in the joint following injuries. We measured tibial vibration responses of two participants using a laser vibrometer system to quantify the frequency band where the most repeatable tibial vibration measurement can be taken. Subsequently, a custom-designed wearable system measured mid-activity tibial vibration characteristics from four participants (five healthy knees and three knees with prior acute injury) during unloaded knee flexion-extensions. An active sensing knee health score was defined as the ratio of the changes in low- to high-frequency response during flexion-extension. Since changes in the boundary of tibia would alter low-frequency response more than high frequency response, we found that increased knee laxity with acute injuries resulted in an increased active sensing knee health score. Our findings demonstrate the potential of active vibration sensing as an interpretable, computationally inexpensive alternative to JAEs for wearable knee health assessment.

Virtualization technologies are still growing bigger and faster. Despite the greatness of its advancement, the costume industry is still very accessible when it comes to real trials. Off-the-shelf stuff are inadequate details for the desired individual to assess its in-depth utility for each garment trying on for a second, including custom stuff are much harder to try out right away. To this end, 2D image-based 3D reconstruction inclusive of touchable-virtualized space is accessible easier to stuff details for mans' decision making in purchasing. We establish the overall end-to-end pipeline from reconstruction until visualization for one instance to be triable on its stuff for a moment. As an expectation, our proposed approach can bring objects into the experimental area and use them immediately without any obstacle.

In recent years, visual cancer information retrieval using Artificial Intelligence has been shown to be effective in diagnosis and treatment. Especially for a modern liver-cancer diagnosis system, the automated tumor annotation plays a crucial role. So-called tumor annotation refers to tagging the tumor in Biomedical images by computer vision technologies such as Deep Learning. After annotation, the tumor information such as tumor location, tumor size and tumor characteristics can be output into a clinical report. To this end, this paper proposes an effective approach that includes tumor segmentation, tumor location, tumor measuring, and tumor recognition to achieve high-quality tumor annotation, thereby assisting radiologists in efficiently making accurate diagnosis reports. For tumor segmentation, a Multi-Residual Attention Unet is proposed to alleviate problems of vanishing gradient and information diversity. For tumor location, an effective Multi-SeResUnet is proposed to partition the liver into 8 couinaud segments. Based on the partitioned segments, the tumor is located accurately. For tumor recognition, an effective multi-labeling classifier is used to recognize the tumor characteristics by the visual tumor features. For tumor measuring, a regression model is proposed to measure the tumor size. To reveal the effectiveness of individual methods, each method was evaluated on real datasets. The experimental results reveal that the proposed methods are more promising than the state-of-the-art methods in tumor segmentation, tumor measuring, tumor localization and tumor recognition. Specifically, the average tumor size error and the annotation accuracy are 0.432 cm and 91.6%, respectively, which suggest potential for reducing radiologists’ workload. In summary, this paper proposes an effective tumor annotation for an automated diagnosis support system. Clinical and Translational Impact Statement—The proposed methods have been evaluated and shown to significantly imp

Passenger transport is one of the most common ways of commuting in Taiwan. It plays an important role in the transportation system due to its large number of stations, dense frequency, and cheap transportation. Due to the unfriendly transportation environment and a large number of passengers, a blind spot of passenger transportation exists, which leads to traffic accidents at the station. We research to make the "Bus Stop Passenger Detection System". Taking the object detection of "Wheelchairs" into consideration, it is more convenient to assist the disabled to find the passenger transportation system, which makes Taiwan's transportation system more convenient.
