Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (sMRI) are widely used for early Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, providing anatomical and metabolic insights. However, current fusion methods, like simple addition or concatenation, fail to leverage their complementary information fully. To address it, we proposed a 3D multi-modal feature interaction fusion network for AD diagnosis. Specifically, we leverage a robust 3D ResNet backbone network as the architecture for feature extraction. To enable the model to dynamically focus on the areas of interest, we added a local attention module at each layer of the network. We further introduced a collaborative attention module to facilitate the interaction and fusion of features between PET and sMRI modalities, thereby enhancing the overall capability of the model to utilize complementary information from both modalities. Finally, an enhanced feature fusion module based on Transformer is integrated into the network to further strengthen the representation of the fused features. The experiment shows that our model performs better than other representative models and validates the effectiveness of the proposed method on the ADNI dataset.

Crack, as one of the common diseases of asphalt pavements, seriously affects the health of asphalt pavements. To cope with the demand of crack detection in the context of complex pavements, an improved network model with an encoder-decoder structure is proposed. First, dense long and short connections are combined with full-scale jump connections, and the jump connection structure yields fullscale feature information to each node of the decoding layer. Second, spatial and channel attention modules are incorporated into the proposed network. The former is used at the low level of the network to improve the ability to capture crack detail information, and the latter is applied at the high level of the proposed network to obtain the semantic information. Finally, improve network performance by building deep supervision network. The proposed network is compared with on three datasets, DeepCrack, CFD, and Crack500, and the F-score reaches 86.79%. In this paper, the network is effective in crack detection and plays a certain role in maintaining road safety.

Distributed Deep Neural Network (DNN) inference is a promising technology to explore the distributed resources in edge cloud to realize edge intelligence. Meanwhile the inherent resource sharing nature of edge cloud infrastructure also raises serious concerns on security and privacy. software Guard Ex-tensions (SGX) emerges as a potential hardware-level solution but its limited secure memory (i.e., enclave page cache) imposes new challenges, especially in contrast to memory-hungry DNN models. A task's performance will be severely affected when its memory footprint is beyond the enclave page cache size, due to expensive secure page swapping. In this case, how to appropriately partition a DNN model and assign the partitions to distributed edge servers to efficiently utilize edge resources for fast secure inference becomes a challenging problem. In this paper, we first show that this problem is NP-hard. We further propose a MEmory -aware Distributed Inference Acceleration (MEDIA) algorithm, whose guaranteed approximation ratio is also formally analyzed. We have implemented a prototype system and applied some well-known representative DNN models to evaluate MEDIA's performance. Through extensive experiments, we verify the efficiency of MEDIA by the fact that it reduces the inference time by 19.5%-38.1 % in comparison with state-of-the-art approaches.

Bladder cancer is a complex disease and one of the most lethal types of cancer. Recently, some malignancies, including bladder carcinomas, have shown better results with immunotherapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) is a potential biomarker for predicting tumor behavior and immunotherapy response as an outcome. Publicly available clinical data from the bladder cancer of TCGA project is used to analyze correlations of clinical variables with an increased tumor mutation burden (TMB) number compared with those with a lower number of mutations. The threshold for the high mutation burden in the analysis was set at 10 mutations (Mut) per Megabase (Mb). The Chi-Square test (χ 2 ) was used to compare categorical data. The Chi-Square "Best first" method was used to find a correlation between clinical variables and TMB, then compared with the p-value of significance (p<0.05). A significant correlation was found between TMB and Race, Neoplasm Histologic Grade, and gender when applying the Best First/Chi-Square method to clinical variables and level of TMB. This enables further investigation and application of the prediction models of the level of TMB, responsiveness to immunotherapy, and prognosis based on the clinical features of the patients.

3D face reconstruction plays a major role in many human-robot interaction systems, from automatic face authentication to human-computer interface-based entertainment. To improve robustness against occlusions and noise, 3D face reconstruction networks are often trained on a set of in-the-wild face images preferably captured along different viewpoints of the subject. However, collecting the required large amounts of 3D annotated face data is expensive and time-consuming. To address the high annotation cost and due to the importance of training on a useful set, we propose an Active Learning (AL) framework that actively selects the most informative and representative samples to be labeled. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first work on tackling active learning for 3D face reconstruction to enable a label-efficient training strategy. In particular, we propose a Reinforcement Active Learning approach in conjunction with a clustering-based pooling strategy to select informative view-points of the subjects. Experimental results on 300W-LP and AFLW2000 datasets demonstrate that our proposed method is able to 1) efficiently select the most influencing view-points for labeling and outperforms several baseline AL techniques and 2) further improve the performance of a 3D Face Reconstruction network trained on the full dataset.
