This paper presents an optical coherence tomography (OCT) system in conjunction with a novel image reconstruction technique employed for in vitro imaging of human teeth. The primary goal is to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the obtained images. The study entails a comparative analysis between the conventional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) OCT image reconstruction method and a newly introduced scaled nonuniform discrete Fourier transform (NDFT) approach. The findings reveal that the NDFT method consistently delivers superior results in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and overall image quality, even when dealing with redundant and nonuniform frequency domain samples. In light of these results, this paper concludes that integrating NDFT into OCT procedures has the potential to significantly enhance the quality of image reconstructions, thereby fostering its broader application in the field of dental imaging.

Stunting in toddlers is a chronic nutritional issue that affects the physical and cognitive development of children, with serious long-term consequences such as reduced cognitive function and an increased risk of chronic diseases in adulthood. Therefore, early identification and prevention efforts for stunting are crucial. Classifying toddlers into categories of at-risk for stunting or not is essential to provide timely and appropriate interventions. This study employs data mining techniques using the decision tree algorithm to expedite the stunting detection process and improve the accuracy of nutritional status classification in children. The results indicate that the constructed decision tree model can classify children's nutritional status with an accuracy of 83.26%. The decision tree achieves high accuracy in classifying stunting in toddlers due to its ability to handle complex data and identify significant patterns within the data.

The safety of construction site personnel is highly dependent on the adherence of personal protective equipment (PPE) wearing. Safety helmet monitoring has become a popular topic in recent years as a result of the success in the field of image processing. Deep learning (DL) is widely used in object detection tasks due to its ability to create features based on raw data. Constant improvements in the DL models have led to numerous successful outcomes in the implementation of safety helmet detection tasks. The performance of different DL algorithms from previous studies will be assessed and studied in this review paper. The YOLOv5s (small) model, YOLOv6s (small) model, and the YOLOv7 model will be trained and evaluated in this paper.

The automotive industry's transformative conver-gence of cutting-edge technologies, such as the Internet of Things (loT), electronic voice assistants, and custom APls, have paved the way for a remarkable array of opportunities to enhance vehicle security while revolutionizing user-car interactions. Actually, when leveraging loT sensors of multiple types and configurations, their produced, collected, and stored real-time data may offer in-depth and comprehensive insights into vehicle information, opening many possibilities when loT-generated databases are created. In this context, the primary goal of this paper is to create a new approach based on the popular Amazon Alexa voice assistant, which would allow facilitated queries of vehicular data from cloud-based databases. For that, a new Alexa service (skill) is created, as well as a custom API, allowing easy access to different types of data previously retrieved from vehicular sensors and properly stored. Doing so, the implemented skill indirectly processes data from loT sensors through the custom API, enabling users to access vital vehicular information using intuitive voice commands, remotely. A case study in a real scenario is conducted to validate and confirm the feasibility of real-time vehicle information access, showcasing the benefits of the proposed approach when combined with other solutions in a macro vehicular-centric loT ecosystem.

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a type of complications caused by diabetes. Patients with DR may experience worsening vision, blindness, and eye pain. To effectively address this disorder, DR must be identified and classified according to its severity. Therefore, automated diagnosis of fundus lesions is of great interest for DR early detection. The development of deep learning technology has provided a strong foundation for effective implementation of the automated detection system. In particular, transfer learning techniques have greatly benefited the research community to reduce computation and reuse trained features. In this paper, the outputs from the ”average pooling” and ”fully connected” layers are used as the features to the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier with Error Correction Output Code (ECOC). The proposed method outperforms the fine-tuned pre-trained networks in predicting the severity classes with an accuracy of 80.1%. This means that multiple features extracted from the pre-trained networks contribute to a better recognition process.

The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is a fundamental model, which is drawing increasing interest because of recent advances in experimental and theoretical studies of 2D materials. Current understanding of the ground state of the 2DEG relies on quantum Monte Carlo calculations, based on variational comparisons of different Ansätze for different phases. We use a single variational ansatz, a general backflow-type wave function using a message-passing neural quantum state architecture, for a unified description across the entire density range. The variational optimization consistently leads to lower ground-state energies than previous best results. Transition into a Wigner crystal (WC) phase occurs automatically at rs=37±1, a density lower than currently believed. Between the liquid and WC phases, the same ansatz and variational search strongly suggest the existence of intermediate states in a broad range of densities, with enhanced short-range nematic spin correlations.
