CyclicAugment: Optimized Medical Image Analysis via Adaptive Augmentation Intensity

IEEE Access 2025年 13卷 86562-86575页

Computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) systems play a crucial role in accurately diagnosing and monitoring diseases through medical imaging. However, there are many challenges, such as data scarcity and complex structural patterns, limiting the performance of deep-learning models. Although conventional data-augmentation techniques can help mitigate these limitations, excessive augmentation may distort critical diagnostic information, leading to suboptimal performance. To address this issue, this study proposes CyclicAugment, a novel data-augmentation strategy that dynamically adjusts augmentation intensity in a cyclic manner throughout training. The method gradually transitions from using original data as weak augmentation, subsequently applying strong augmentation before reverting to weak augmentation again, reintroducing the original data. This process ensures stable training through an adaptive learning rate. By cyclically adjusting augmentation intensity, our approach enhances data diversity while preserving essential diagnostic information, thereby improving the generalizability of deep learning models. We validated CyclicAugment across six different medical imaging datasets and multiple deep learning architectures, including convolutional neural networks, vision transformers, and multilayer perceptrons. Our framework achieved a maximum accuracy improvement of 8.8%, reaching a peak performance of 0.927 and thereby demonstrating its effectiveness in enhancing medical image analysis.

The paper presents a comprehensive causality analysis of the US stock and commodity markets during the COVID-19 crash. The dynamics of different sectors are also compared. We use Topological data Analysis (TDA) on multidimensional time-series to identify crashes in stock and commodity markets. The Wasserstein Distance (WD) shows distinct spikes signaling the crash for both stock and commodity markets. We then compare the persistence diagrams of stock and commodity markets using the WD metric. A significant spike in the WD between stock and commodity markets is observed during the crisis, suggesting significant topological differences between the markets. Similar spikes are observed between the sectors of the US market as well. Spikes obtained may be due to either a difference in the magnitude of crashes in the two markets (or sectors), or from the temporal lag between the two markets suggesting information flow. We study the Granger-causality between stock and commodity markets and also between different sectors. The results show a bidirectional Granger-causality between commodity and stock during the crash period, demonstrating the greater interdependence of financial markets during the crash. However, the overall analysis shows that the causal direction is from stock to commodity. A pairwise Granger-causal analysis between US sectors is also conducted. There is a significant increase in the interdependence between the sectors during the crash period. TDA combined with Granger-causality effectively analyzes the interdependence and sensitivity of different markets and sectors. © 2025, CC BY.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common human malignancies worldwide. Aberrant activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is crucial to driving malignant progression and predicting poor prognosis of multiple human cancers, including bladder cancer, making STAT3 a promising target of cancer therapeutics. Cryptotanshinone (CTS) is an anticancer ingredient of Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza), a top-graded Chinese medicinal herb. However, whether CTS targets STAT3 to exert its cytotoxic effect on human bladder cancer remains unknown. Herein, we demonstrated that CTS is cytotoxic to multiple human urinary bladder transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) cell lines while sparing normal human urothelial cells. CTS provoked apoptosis-dependent bladder TCC cytotoxicity, as apoptosis blockage by z-VAD-fmk markedly rescued the clonogenicity of CTS-treated cells. Besides, CTS was found to suppress constitutive and interleukin 6-inducible activation of STAT3, evidenced by the downregulation of STAT3 tyrosine 705 phosphorylation and BCL2, a recognized STAT3 transcriptional target. Notably, ectopic expression of a dominant-active STAT3 mutant (STAT3-C) or BCL-2 alleviated CTS-induced apoptosis and clonogenicity inhibition, thus confirming STAT3 blockade as a pivotal mechanism of CTS's cytotoxic action on bladder TCC cells. Lastly, immunoblotting revealed that CTS lowered the levels of active JAK2, an upstream kinase that mediates STAT3 tyrosine 705 phosphorylation. Altogether, we conclude that the blockade of the JAK2/STAT3/BCL-2 antiapoptotic signaling axis is a vital mechanism whereby CTS provokes bladder cancer cytotoxicity. The current evidence implicates CTS's potential to be translated into a bladder cancer therapeutic agent. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

The purpose of this research is to develop chatbots as virtual clients (VCs) for empathy training, and to explore the feasibility assessment of using chatbots to assist in empathy training for students in counseling and guidance-related departments. The virtual clients are developed and tested based on chatbots using domain knowledge of empathy training. Chatbots are powered by natural language processing engines and trained by corpora of dialogues involving various emotions. As such, using chatbots serving as VCs allows the interlocutor to practice empathy skills with diversity and richness. After chatbots are successfully transformed into VCs, 60 volunteers from the Department of Guidance and Counseling are recruited to experience the interaction with VCs, followed by immediately conducting user experience surveys to understand users’ subjective feelings and thoughts for evaluating the ease of use and effectiveness of VC. Chatbots are successfully transformed into VCs by implementing corpora of emotions into “custom brain” of chatbots. The content of corpora includes client scenarios that are consistent with the goals of empathy training for undergraduates in guidance and counseling or psychotherapy. Test results show that the average score from the User Experience Questionnaire of the testers exceeds level 5 (1-7), which is a state of satisfaction. In terms of System Usability Scale, the average score is 4 (1-5), indicating agreement with the system’s usability. Along with qualitative feedback, testers agreed on the usability of the chatbot system, stating that most people can quickly learn to use the system, interact with the virtual client (VC) without stress, feel relaxed, and want to continue the conversation. They believe that VC is suitable for practicing empathy skills, reducing anxiety during practice, and improving empathy response skills through such practice. From the observation of the testers during the test process, the testers showed curious and in

The implementation of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a photocatalyst material in hydrogen (H2) evolution reaction (HER) has embarked renewed interest in the past decade. Rapid electron-hole pairs recombination and wide band gap of a photo-sensitive material of TiO2 are detrimental toward the targeted catalytical reaction. In this study, we present the rational design, fabrication, photocatalytic performance of TiO2-Cu/CuO/Cu2O heterostructures (CuTi) using viable chemical reduction method. The Z-scheme and S-scheme are succesfully generated across the TiO2/CuO/Cu2O interfaces, while the Schottky junction arises on the Cu perimeters. This is evidenced from the blue shifted about 0.3 eV of Cu 2p core level determined by using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), in combination with the formation of inverse V-shape of the Mott-Schottky plots. In addition, we find that Cu/CuO/Cu2O facilitates photon absorption range up to the visible region. The multiple heterojunction and the large number of OHsurface enhanced charge carrier transfer are associated to the suppression of photoluminescence (PL) intensity, high surface hydroxyl (OHsurface) density in CuTi probed by XPS, and fast electron transfer based on the electrochemical measurements. The presence of OHsurface inhibits the recombination of electron. A significant H2 photogeneration rate enhancement is achieved when an optimized 5 wt% Cu/CuO/Cu2O concentration is used on TiO2 to achieve 7,157.19 μmol·g−1 (1,789.30 μmol·g−1·h−1). Based on this finding, zero emission energy innitiative could be materialized under multiple heterojunctions in photocatalytic process is beneficial for enhancing the H2 production. © 2025 The Authors

The integration of human and artificial intelligence represents a scientific opportunity to advance our understanding of information processing, as each system offers unique computational insights that can enhance and inform the other. The synthesis of human cognitive principles with artificial intelligence has the potential to produce more interpretable and functionally aligned computational models, while simultaneously providing a formal framework for investigating the neural mechanisms underlying perception, learning, and decision-making through systematic model comparisons and representational analyses. In this study, we introduce personalized brain-inspired modeling that integrates human behavioral embeddings and neural data to align with cognitive processes. We took a stepwise approach, fine-tuning the Contrastive Language–Image Pre-training (CLIP) model with large-scale behavioral decisions, group-level neural data, and finally, participant-level neural data within a broader framework that we have named CLIP-Human-Based Analysis (CLIP-HBA). We found that fine-tuning on behavioral data enhances its ability to predict human similarity judgments while indirectly aligning it with dynamic representations captured via magnetoencephalography (MEG). To further gain mechanistic insights into the temporal evolution of cognitive processes, we introduced a model specifically fine-tuned on millisecond-level MEG neural dynamics (CLIP-HBA-MEG). This model resulted in enhanced temporal alignment with human neural processing while still showing improvement on behavioral alignment. Finally, we trained individualized models on participant-specific neural data, effectively capturing individualized neural dynamics and highlighting the potential for personalized AI systems. These personalized systems have far-reaching implications for the fields of medicine, cognitive research, human-computer interfaces, and AI development. © 2025, CC BY-NC-ND.

Unbiased Parameter Estimation for Bayesian Inverse Problems

In this paper we consider the estimation of unknown parameters in Bayesian inverse problems. In most cases of practical interest, there are several barriers to performing such estimation, This includes a numerical approximation of a solution of a differential equation and, even if exact solutions are available, an analytical intractability of the marginal likelihood and its associated gradient, which is used for parameter estimation. The focus of this article is to deliver unbiased estimates of the unknown parameters, that is, stochastic estimators that, in expectation, are equal to the maximizer of the marginal likelihood, and possess no numerical approximation error. Based upon the ideas of [4] we develop a new approach for unbiased parameter estimation for Bayesian inverse problems. We prove unbiasedness and establish numerically that the associated estimation procedure is faster than the current state-of-the-art methodology for this problem. We demonstrate the performance of our methodology on a range of problems which include a PDE and ODE. Copyright © 2025, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Mobile edge Large Language Model (LLM) deployments face inherent constraints, such as limited computational resources and network bandwidth. Although Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) mitigates some challenges by integrating external knowledge bases, inefficient cache management can still result in high retrieval latency and frequent cache updates. To address these issues, we propose an Adaptive Contextual Caching (ACC) framework that anticipates user needs by proactively caching semantically relevant data for mobile-edge LLMs. ACC utilizes a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) module to refine cache replacement policies, balancing user context, document similarity, and the overhead associated with cache misses. Experimental results demonstrate that ACC increases cache hit rates to over 80% after only 11 training episodes, outperforming FIFO, LRU, and semantic-only caching while reducing retrieval latency by up to 40%. In particular, ACC also reduces local caching overhead (i.e., the cost of updating the cache when a miss occurs) by as much as 55%, enabling scalable, low-latency LLM services in resource-constrained edge environments. © 2025, CC BY.

This paper develops an algorithmic approach for obtaining estimates of the weight enumerators of Reed-Muller (RM) codes. Our algorithm is based on a technique for estimating the partition functions of spin systems, which in turn employs a sampler that produces codewords according to a suitably defined Gibbs distribution. We apply our method to moderate-blocklength RM RM) codes. Our algorithm is based on a technique for estimating the partition functions of spin systems, which in turn employs a sampler that produces codewords according to a suitably defined Gibbs distribution. We apply our method to moderate-blocklength RM codes and derive approximate values of their weight enumerators. We observe that the rates of the weight enumerator estimates returned by our method are close to the true rates when these rates are either known or computable by brute-force search;in other cases, our computations provide provably robust estimates. As a by-product, our sampling algorithm also allows us to put together the weight spectrum, i.e., the weights at which the enumerators are non-zero, of an RM code, by providing witnesses in the form of codewords at each weight in the spectrum. We illustrate our method by providing estimates of the hitherto unknown weight enumerators of the RM(11, 5) code for weights that are multiples of 4 between 512 and 1024. We also obtain the exact weight spectrum of the RM(10, 4) code. © 1972-2012 IEEE.

Bayesian Inference for Non-Synchronously Observed Diffusions

arXiv

arXiv 2025年

作者： Jasra, Ajay Kamatani, Kengo Wu, Amin School of Data Science The Chinese University of Hong Kong Shenzhen Shenzhen China Institute of Statistical Mathematics Tokyo190-0014 Japan Statistics Program Computer Electrical and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering Division King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal23955-6900 Saudi Arabia

We consider the problem of Bayesian inference for bi-variate data observed in time but with observation times which occur non-synchronously. In particular, this occurs in a wide variety of applications in finance, such as high-frequency trading or crude oil futures trading. We adopt a diffusion model for the data and formulate a Bayesian model with priors on unknown parameters along with a latent representation for the the so-called missing data. We then consider computational methodology to fit the model using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). We have to resort to time-discretization methods as the complete data likelihood is intractable and this can cause considerable issues for MCMC when the data are observed in low frequencies. In a high frequency observation frequencies we present a simple particle MCMC method based on an Euler–Maruyama time discretization, which can be enhanced using multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC). In the low frequency observation regime we introduce a novel bridging representation of the posterior in continuous time to deal with the issues of MCMC in this case. This representation is discretized and fitted using MCMC and MLMC. We apply our methodology to real and simulated data to establish the efficacy of our methodology. © 2025, CC BY.
