Skin cancer is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition caused by DNA damage in the skin cells, leading to genetic mutations and abnormal cell growth. These mutations can cause the cells to divide and grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor on the skin. To prevent skin cancer from spreading and potentially leading to serious complications, it's critical to identify and treat it as early as possible. An innovative two-fold deep learning based skin cancer detection model is presented in this research work. Five main stages make up the proposed model: Preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction, feature selection, and skin cancer detection. Initially, the Min–max contrast stretching and median filtering used to pre-process the collected raw image. From the pre-processed image, the Region of Intertest (ROI) is identified via optimized mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN). Then, from the identified ROI areas, the texture features like Illumination-invariant Binary Gabor Pattern (II-BGP), Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Color feature such as Color Correlogram and Histogram Intersection, and Shape feature including Moments, Area, Perimeter, Eccentricity, Average bending energy are extracted. To choose the optimal features from the extracted ones, the Golden Eagle Mutated Leader Optimization (GEMLO) is used. The proposed Golden Eagle Mutated Leader Optimization (GEMLO) is the conceptual amalgamation of the standard Mutated Leader Algorithm (MLA) and Golden Eagle Optimizer are used to select best features (GEO). The skin cancer detection is accomplished via two-fold-deep-learning-classifiers, that includes the Fully Convolutional Neural Networks (FCNs) and Multi-Layer Perception (MLP). The final outcome is the combination of the outcomes acquired from Fully Convolutional Neural Networks (FCNs) and Multi-Layer Perception (MLP). The PYTHON platform is being used to implement the suggested model. Using the curre

1 Introduction In recent years,foundation Vision-Language Models(VLMs),such as CLIP[1],which empower zero-shot transfer to a wide variety of domains without fine-tuning,have led to a significant shift in machine learning *** the impressive capabilities,it is concerning that the VLMs are prone to inheriting biases from the uncurated datasets scraped from the Internet[2–5].We examine these biases from three perspectives.(1)Label bias,certain classes(words)appear more frequently in the pre-training data.(2)Spurious correlation,non-target features,e.g.,image background,that are correlated with labels,resulting in poor group robustness.(3)Social bias,which is a special form of spurious correlation,focuses on societal *** image-text pairs might contain human prejudice,e.g.,gender,ethnicity,and age,that are correlated with *** biases are subsequently propagated to downstream tasks,leading to biased predictions.

Numerical simulation is employed to investigate the initial state of avalanche in polydisperse particle *** and propagation processes are illustrated for pentadisperse and triadisperse particle systems,*** these processes,particles involved in the avalanche grow slowly in the early stage and explosively in the later stage,which is clearly different from the continuous and steady growth trend in the monodisperse *** examining the avalanche propagation,the number growth of particles involved in the avalanche and the slope of the number growth,the initial state can be divided into three stages:T1(nucleation stage),T2(propagation stage),T3(overall avalanche stage).We focus on the characteristics of the avalanche in the T2 stage,and find that propagation distances increase almost linearly in both axial and radial directions in polydisperse *** also consider the distribution characteristics of the average coordination number and average velocity for the moving *** results support that the polydisperse particle systems are more stable in the T2 stage.

Industrial cyber-physical systems closely integrate physical processes with cyberspace, enabling real-time exchange of various information about system dynamics, sensor outputs, and control decisions. The connection between cyberspace and physical processes results in the exposure of industrial production information to unprecedented security risks. It is imperative to develop suitable strategies to ensure cyber security while meeting basic performance *** the perspective of control engineering, this review presents the most up-to-date results for privacy-preserving filtering,control, and optimization in industrial cyber-physical systems. Fashionable privacy-preserving strategies and mainstream evaluation metrics are first presented in a systematic manner for performance evaluation and engineering *** discussion discloses the impact of typical filtering algorithms on filtering performance, specifically for privacy-preserving Kalman filtering. Then, the latest development of industrial control is systematically investigated from consensus control of multi-agent systems, platoon control of autonomous vehicles as well as hierarchical control of power systems. The focus thereafter is on the latest privacy-preserving optimization algorithms in the framework of consensus and their applications in distributed economic dispatch issues and energy management of networked power systems. In the end, several topics for potential future research are highlighted.
