Conventional approaches to video action recognition perform global attention over the entire video patches, which may be ineffective due to the temporal redundancy of video frames. Recent works on masked video modeling adopt a high-ratio tube masking and reconstruction strategy as a pre-training method to mitigate the problem of focusing on spatial features well but not on temporal features. Inspired by this pre-training method, we propose Fusion Attention for Action Recognition (FAR), which fuses the sparse-dense attention patterns specialized for temporal features with global attention during fine-tuning.

In addition, using various feature extraction networks for extracting multiple features to obtain multiple kinds of visual features in the encoding process is a standard method for improving model performance. Such feature extraction networks are weight-freezing states and are based on convolution neural networks (CNNs).

As the performance of devices that conduct large-scale computations has been rapidly improved, various deep learning models have been successfully utilized in various applications. Particularly, convolution neural networks (CNN) have shown remarkable performance in image processing tasks such as image classification and segmentation. Accordingly, more stable and robust optimization methods are required to effectively train them.

These incidental findings (IFs) can be detected in orthodontic patients, as various radiographs are required for orthodontic diagnosis. The radiographic data of 1020-orthodontic patients were interpreted to evaluate the rates of IFs in three-dimensional (3D) cone-beam-computed tomography (CBCT) with a large field of view (FOV) and investigate the effectiveness and accuracy of two-dimensional (2D) radiographs for detecting IFs compared to CBCT.

In the last 20 years, minimally invasive procedures like sialendoscopy, extracorporeal lithotripsy, and basket snaring are increasingly being used for the treatment of salivary gland duct stones. Sialo-irrigation of the salivary gland is an effective procedure for treating inflammation and providing symptomatic relief.

However, the structural limitations of these devices, such as a low array density and complex line design, are predicted to result in low processing speeds and high energy consumption of the entire system. Here, we propose a vertical three-terminal synapse featuring a remote weight update via ion gel, which is also extendable to a crossbar array structure.

Methods: We exposed a child, an adolescent (simulated by an adult female phantom), and adult male phantoms using common scanning protocols for panoramic radiography, cephalography, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Glass dosimeters were placed in the organs of the phantom to measure the absorbed doses.
MXenes, an emerging class of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides with the general formula M X T (n = 1-4), have potential for application as floating gates in memory devices because of their intrinsic properties of a 2D structure, high density-of-states, and high work function. In this study, a series of MXene-TiO core-shell nanosheets are synthesized by deterministic control of the surface oxidation of MXene. The floating gate (multilayer MXene) and tunneling layer (TiO ) in a nano-floating-gate transistor memory (NFGTM) device are prepared simultaneously by a facile, low-cost, and water-based process.
