AI Article Synopsis

  • Sensitivity kernels analyze how changes in the environment affect the reception of broadband sound signals, focusing on the impact of medium sound speed variations.
  • The research utilizes a first-order Born approximation to translate sound speed changes into pressure perturbations, allowing predictions of how transmissions react to these shifts.
  • Time-reversal techniques are assessed in terms of pressure sensitivity, revealing that improvements occur primarily with multiple sources due to path independence and kernel overlap.

Article Abstract

Sensitivity kernels for receptions of broadband sound transmissions are used to study the effect of the transmitted signal on the sensitivity of the reception to environmental perturbations. A first-order Born approximation is used to obtain the pressure sensitivity of the received signal to small changes in medium sound speed. The pressure perturbation to the received signal caused by medium sound speed changes is expressed as a linear combination of single-frequency sensitivity kernels weighted by the signal in the frequency domain. This formulation can be used to predict the response of a source transmission to sound speed perturbations. The stability of time-reversal is studied and compared to that of a one-way transmission using sensitivity kernels. In the absence of multipath, a reduction in pressure sensitivity using time reversal is only obtained with multiple sources. This can be attributed both to the presence of independent paths and to cancellations that occur due to the overlap of sensitivity kernels for different source-receiver paths. The sensitivity kernel is then optimized to give a new source transmission scheme that takes into account knowledge of the medium statistics and is related to the regularized inverse filter.

Purpose: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been steadily increasing over the years. We aim to predict the occurrence of T2DM using mammography images within 5 years using two different methods and compare their performance.

Approach: We examined 312 samples, including 110 positive cases (developed T2DM after 5 years) and 202 negative cases (did not develop T2DM) using two different methods.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals contain complex and diverse features, serving as a crucial basis for arrhythmia diagnosis. The subtle differences in characteristics among various types of arrhythmias, coupled with class imbalance issues in datasets, often hinder existing models from effectively capturing key information within these complex signals, leading to a bias towards normal classes. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a method for arrhythmia classification based on a multi-branch, multi-head attention temporal convolutional network (MB-MHA-TCN).

Sweet corn is a globally important food source and vegetable renowned for its rich nutritional content. However, post-harvest quality deterioration remains a significant challenge due to sweet corn's high sensitivity to environmental factors. Currently, low-temperature storage is the primary method for preserving sweet corn; however, the molecular mechanisms involved in this process remain unclear.

Background: Aldehyde is a kind of important environmental pollutant, which has been demonstrated to be associated with increased risks of various chronic diseases with the economic and social development. However, the effects of aldehydes on serum uric acid (SUA) and hyperuricemia remained inexplicit, and the potential mediating pathways for this relationship needed to be addressed.

Methods: This study investigated the associations of individual and mixed aldehydes with SUA and hyperuricemia among 1588 U S.
