System identification, as a rich and vital discipline, provides a practical and general methodology and tool for quantitatively modelling the input-output relationships of dynamical systems. Sparse nonlinear system identification (SNSI), especially parametric sparse nonlinear system identification (PSNSI), is an important and vital field of research with a wide range of applications. This work is concerned with PSNSI and particular attention is paid to the assessment of three well-known mainstream sparse learning methods, namely, orthogonal least squares (OLS), orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). The performances of these methods are tested and evaluated through three case studies relating to PSNSI problems. The research results and findings of this work provide practical useful information and guidance for researchers to better choose or adapt methods when solving PSNSI problems.
In the current paper, a strategy for handling a stochastic optimization problem based on metaheuristic techniques is presented. This optimization problem is defined based on the impact of environmental factors such as...

Pneumonia is one of the top causes of death in Romania and early detection of this disease improves the recovery chances and shortens the length of hospitalization. In this work, we develop a solution for automatic pneumonia detection based on convolutional neural networks. Four network models are investigated. They are trained on 4.163 images from a public dataset and tested on 530 images. The best results are obtained by one of the proposed models conducting to a sensitivity of 98.72%, an accuracy of 89.81%, and ROC 93.46%. Thus, this research proposes a lightweight screening tool that can help triaging the patients with pneumonia.

In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, visual impairment poses significant challenges for approximately 17.5% of school-aged children, mainly due to refractive errors. These challenges extend to everyday navigation, environmental interaction, and overall life quality. Motivated by the desire to empower visually impaired individuals, who face navigational limitations, difficulties in object recognition, and inadequate assistance from traditional technologies, we propose SightAid. This innovative wearable vision system utilizes a deep learning-based framework, addressing the gaps left by current assistive solutions. Traditional methods, such as canes and GPS devices, often fail to meet the nuanced and dynamic needs of the visually impaired, especially in accurately identifying objects, understanding complex environments, and providing essential real-time feedback for independent navigation. SightAid comprises a seven-phase framework involving data collection, preprocessing, and training of a sophisticated deep neural network with multiple convolutional and fully connected layers. This system is integrated into smart glasses with augmented reality displays, enabling real-time object detection and recognition. Interaction with users is facilitated through audio or haptic feedback, informing them about the location and type of objects detected. A continuous learning mechanism, incorporating user feedback and new data, ensures the system's ongoing refinement and adaptability. For performance assessment, we utilized the MNIST dataset, and an Indoor Objects Detection dataset tailored for the visually impaired, featuring images of everyday objects crucial for safe indoor navigation. SightAid demonstrates remarkable performance with accuracy up to 0.9874, recall values between 0.98 and 0.99, F1-scores ranging from 0.98 to 0.99, and AUC-ROC values reaching as high as 0.9999. These metrics significantly surpass those of traditional methods, highlighting SightAid's potential to substan
