Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, a core component of 6G, has been widely adopted in optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. Accurate recognition of different MIMO types is essential for MIMO selection and demodulation. In this Letter, we propose an open-set MIMO recognition method for OWC systems using a Siamese neural network (SNN).

The objective of this review is to highlight the importance of microbiome studies in enhancing our understanding of rare genetic epilepsy and related neurological disorders. Studies suggest that the gut microbiome, acting through the gut-brain axis, impacts the development and severity of epileptic conditions in children.

This may lead to response bias and lack of knowledge about this group. Retrospective research with existing patient data is the only way to increase our knowledge for some patient groups.

Very fast red-, green-, and blue (RGB)-emitting OLEDs are developed on a single substrate to realize high data transmission speed by wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). -6 dB electrical bandwidth of over 100 MHz is achieved for all colors by selecting fluorescent materials with nanosecond emission lifetimes and little overlap between their emission spectra and incorporating them into OLEDs designed for high-speed operation.

Invasive meningococcal infections (IMI) are extremely severe pathologies that justify very early antibiotic therapy to limit complications and death. Three different situations may arise: 1) clinical suspicion of purpura fulminans in the pre-hospital setting, 2 confirmed or strongly suspected IMI, 3) post-exposure chemoprophylaxis of a patient's contacts.
