MSR-UNet: enhancing multi-scale and long-range dependencies in medical image segmentation.

Transformer-based technology has attracted widespread attention in medical image segmentation. Due to the diversity of organs, effective modelling of multi-scale information and establishing long-range dependencies between pixels are crucial for successful medical image segmentation. However, most studies rely on a fixed single-scale window for modeling, which ignores the potential impact of window size on performance.

Functional Electrospun Nanofibrous Hybrid Materials for Colorimetric Sensors: A Review.

Electrospun nanofibrous hybrid materials have several advantageous characteristics, including easy preparation, high porosity, and a large specific surface area. Meanwhile, they can be more suitable for colorimetric detection in environmental and food areas than organic materials due to the advantages of inorganic nanomaterials, i.e.

Efficiency and mechanism of ozonated microbubbles for enhancing the removal of algae and algae-derived organic matter.

The effective control of eutrophication caused by algae blooms is still the focus of global attention. The traditional dissolved air floatation process for algae removal has a low adhesion efficiency between bubbles and algal cells and a low removal efficiency of organic pollutants. Aiming to address these defects, this study set up an ozone microbubble-enhanced air flotation experiment to explore the removal trends of algal cells and algal organic matter (AOM) pollution.

Microbubble aeration enhances performance of vacuum membrane distillation desalination by alleviating membrane scaling.

Membrane fouling, especially inorganic fouling due to salt crystal formation and deposition on the membrane surface, is still a major technical issue in membrane distillation (MD) applications. In this study, microbubble aeration (MBA) was included in a laboratory-scale vacuum membrane distillation (VMD) rig and its effect on a desalination process was examined. Without MBA, serious membrane scaling occurred during desalination of simulated high-salinity sea water (100 g.
