A Deep-Learning-Based Collaborative Edge-Cloud Telemedicine System for Retinopathy of Prematurity.

Retinopathy of prematurity is an ophthalmic disease with a very high blindness rate. With its increasing incidence year by year, its timely diagnosis and treatment are of great significance. Due to the lack of timely and effective fundus screening for premature infants in remote areas, leading to an aggravation of the disease and even blindness, in this paper, a deep learning-based collaborative edge-cloud telemedicine system is proposed to mitigate this issue.

Effects of enzymes on organic matter conversion in anaerobic fermentation of sludge to produce volatile fatty acids.

Sludge hydrolysis is a vital step in anaerobic digestion of sludge. This study compared the efficacy of free versus immobilized enzymes at different concentrations in promoting sludge disintegration. Pretreatment with 1,000 mg/L immobilized enzymes was more efficient in promoting sludge disintegration than free enzymes at the same concentration.
