Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly invasive malignancy with limited curative effectiveness. Here, we report the viability of using pulsed Terahertz (THz) time domain spectroscopy (THz TDS) to monitor the efficacy of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) in treating PDAC in murine models. Our study shows that THz imaging can provide reliable and reproducible results to differentiate the changes in untreated and SBRT-treated PDAC tissue using THz refractive index and absorption coefficient as mapping parameters with statistical significance. Hence the study highlights that pulsed THz-TDS can be used as a technique to monitor tumor responses to immunotherapy, providing a comprehensive assessment of the tumor’s reaction to the treatment.

The You Only Learn One Representation (YOLOR) approach is an object detector that can encode implicit knowledge and explicit knowledge of multiple tasks simultaneously. However, the requirement of jointly feeding data is not a friendly setting for an edge device due to the high computational cost. A better strategy is to learn the concept of the new task on the device individually, one by one, without access to the old data. In other words, the model has to deal with multiple tasks asynchronously. In this work, we extend the multi-purpose network YOLOR to asynchronous multi-task learning to learn domain invariant features, which focus on capturing the relatedness between the weight of the previous task and data of the subsequent task. Further, as the number of tasks gradually increases, we accumulate significant weights by introducing task-specific masks and expert modules; the former can automatically identify important filters to prevent modification caused by new tasks, and the latter address the kernel space misalignment problem to perform multi-task feature selection. We experimentally demonstrate that the proposed training strategy significantly outperforms the traditional solution in learning multiple tasks at different times on a public dataset, which supports that the proposed approach is more competitive for resource-limited edge devices.
In this paper we present a new antithetic multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) method for the estimation of expectations with respect to laws of diffusion processes that can be elliptic or hypo-elliptic. In particular, we co...

In this paper we present an implementation scheme for a networked control system where the coordination between devices is done by supervisory control theory. The system is intended to be used as a testbed for DES security-related techniques. We provide some examples of attacks whose effect can be evaluated using the proposed setup. The hardware and software are based on low-cost devices and can be modified to suit different control systems. The details of the implementation are available on a free online repository.

In Internet of Things (IoT) applications, data flows are continuous streams of high-dimensional time series that aggregate various data sources. In this context, decision-making processes frequently encompass multiple factors and criteria that demand forecasting these time series. This paper introduces MO-WMVFTS, a novel multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fuzzy time series (FTS) method for tackling this complex scenario. MO-WMVFTS is a hybrid forecasting method that fuses weighted multivariate FTS (WMVFTS) with embedding transformations, designed for IoT applications. To assess the performance of the proposed method, it was applied to the prediction of energy consumption in smart homes and air quality in smart cities. Here, three real-world datasets are used to assess the validity of our proposed approach, and the results obtained are highly competitive when compared to other existing methods.
Bio-inspired robotic systems are capable of adaptive learning, scalable control, and efficient information processing. Enabling real-time decision-making for such systems is critical to respond to dynamic changes in t...
