This paper presents an analysis of the effectiveness of blood vessel segmentation in human retinal images. The segmentation process was carried out for three-dimensional optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans using the author’s publicly available CAVRI-C database. A 3D version of the U-Net artificial neural network was used. Various dimensions of the input blocks were investigated to determine their influence on the segmentation process. The effectiveness of the proposed solutions was evaluated using various metrics and the results obtained were compared with the 2D solution, also based on neural networks. The use of the proposed solutions allowed us to improve the segmentation even by 15% (in the case of the F1-score).

In this paper we consider optimization problems with stochastic composite objective function subject to (possibly) infinite intersection of constraints. The objective function is expressed in terms of expectation operator over a sum of two terms satisfying a stochastic bounded gradient condition, with or without strong convexity type properties. In contrast to the classical approach, where the constraints are usually represented as intersection of simple sets, in this paper we consider that each constraint set is given as the level set of a convex but not necessarily differentiable function. Based on the exibility offered by our general optimization model we consider a stochastic subgradient method with random feasibility updates. At each iteration, our algorithm takes a stochastic proximal (sub)gradient step aimed at minimizing the objective function and then a subsequent subgradient step minimizing the feasibility violation of the observed random constraint. We analyze the convergence behavior of the proposed algorithm for diminishing stepsizes and for the case when the objective function is convex or has a quadratic functional growth, unifying the nonsmooth and smooth cases. We prove sublinear convergence rates for this stochastic subgradient algorithm, which are known to be optimal for subgradient methods on this class of problems. When the objective function has a linear least-square form and the constraints are polyhedral, it is shown that the algorithm converges linearly. Numerical evidence supports the effectiveness of our method in real problems.

Two-axis gimbals are used in stabilizing and controlling the aiming of optical systems. The main task is to isolate the angular motion of the payload and the disturbances affecting the optical axis of the camera while maintaining the camera’s orientation locked onto the target. Currently, two commonly used gimbal structures are the Yaw-Pitch type and the Roll-Swing type. In this paper, we delve into an in-depth study to develop the full mathematical models for both types, thereby analyzing and evaluating the influence of the cross-channel noise moment effects caused by gimbal imbalance on the stability and aiming control quality under complex angular motion conditions of the payload. Simulation results conducted using MATLAB/SIMULINK with the two-axis gimbal model demonstrate that employing a robust control system significantly reduces the impact of disturbances and enhances the quality of control and stability of the transmission system.

This work presents the results of the examination of the HeLa cell line exposure on the ELF-EMF (extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field). In particular, the relationship between ELF-EMF exposition time and cell death. The examination of cell death hallmarks were examined by estimation levels of selected proteins - FACL4 (a protein that is a part of the ferroptosis pathway) and CK18 (Cytokeratin related to necrosis and apoptosis pathways) in the proposed model of workers exposed to ELF-EMF week.

The present manuscript introduces a classification for power take-off (PTO) diagnosis in Wave Energy Converter (WEC) farms. The suggested strategy has been tested on the Mutriku Multiple Oscillating Water Column-based wave power plant in order to reduce the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCoE) by implementing predictive maintenance strategies. This has been achieved by employing Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) to determine the furthermost relevant features from the measured data. Then the Support Vector Machine (SVM) has been implemented as a classification technique to classify the state of the OWC system.
This article investigates the problem of controlling linear time-invariant systems subject to time-varying and a priori unknown cost functions, state and input constraints, and exogenous disturbances. We combine the o...

This paper presents a new adaptive fractional-order MRAC controller design for the class of non-integer second-order systems. The update of the control law gains follows a derivative of fractional order equal to the order of the controlled system model. The stability analysis of the control system has been performed based on Lyapunov theorem. We apply this control law to an experimental multivariable lightning system. The results obtained show the efficiency and performance improvement of the proposed control solution compared to the classical MRAC.
There is an increasing need for effective control of systems with complex dynamics, particularly through data-driven approaches. System Level Synthesis (SLS) has emerged as a powerful framework that facilitates the co...
