SATEER: Subject-Aware Transformer for EEG-Based Emotion Recognition.

This study presents a Subject-Aware Transformer-based neural network designed for the Electroencephalogram (EEG) Emotion Recognition task (SATEER), which entails the analysis of EEG signals to classify and interpret human emotional states. SATEER processes the EEG waveforms by transforming them into Mel spectrograms, which can be seen as particular cases of images with the number of channels equal to the number of electrodes used during the recording process; this type of data can thus be processed using a Computer Vision pipeline. Distinct from preceding approaches, this model addresses the variability in individual responses to identical stimuli by incorporating a User Embedder module.

Sestrin2 drives ER-phagy in response to protein misfolding.

Protein biogenesis within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is crucial for organismal function. Errors during protein folding necessitate the removal of faulty products. ER-associated protein degradation and ER-phagy target misfolded proteins for proteasomal and lysosomal degradation.

Spatio-Temporal Image-Based Encoded Atlases for EEG Emotion Recognition.

Emotion recognition plays an essential role in human-human interaction since it is a key to understanding the emotional states and reactions of human beings when they are subject to events and engagements in everyday life. Moving towards human-computer interaction, the study of emotions becomes fundamental because it is at the basis of the design of advanced systems to support a broad spectrum of application areas, including forensic, rehabilitative, educational, and many others. An effective method for discriminating emotions is based on ElectroEncephaloGraphy (EEG) data analysis, which is used as input for classification systems.

MV-MS-FETE: Multi-view multi-scale feature extractor and transformer encoder for stenosis recognition in echocardiograms.

Background: aortic stenosis is a common heart valve disease that mainly affects older people in developed countries. Its early detection is crucial to prevent the irreversible disease progression and, eventually, death. A typical screening technique to detect stenosis uses echocardiograms; however, variations introduced by other tissues, camera movements, and uneven lighting can hamper the visual inspection, leading to misdiagnosis.
