A theorem for calculating the local histograms of a gray-scale input image by means of convolution of input-image binary slices with a binary kernel is presented and proved. The calculation of the local histograms of a gray-scale image for all resolution cells and its arbitrary neighborhoods is optically implemented in a shadow-casting correlator. The choice of different rank-order values from the local histograms can lead to a wide spectrum of nonlinear filtration algorithms.

Objective: The objective of this research is to enhance pneumonia detection in chest X-rays by leveraging a novel hybrid deep learning model that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with modified Swin Transformer blocks. This study aims to significantly improve diagnostic accuracy, reduce misclassifications, and provide a robust, deployable solution for underdeveloped regions where access to conventional diagnostics and treatment is limited.

Methods: The study developed a hybrid model architecture integrating CNNs with modified Swin Transformer blocks to work seamlessly within the same model.

Background: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) followed by surgical resection is the current standard of care for oesophageal cancer (EC) patients. This treatment is associated with a variety of complications, with pneumonia being the most common. We hypothesize that proton radiotherapy (PRT) can significantly reduce the incidence of pneumonia compared to photon radiotherapy (PhRT).

Study Objectives: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) may improve sleep dysfunction, a common non-motor symptom of Parkinson disease (PD). Improvement in motor symptoms correlates with DBS-suppressed local field potential (LFP) activity, particularly in the beta frequency (13 - 30 Hz). Although well-characterized in the short term, little is known about the innate progression of these oscillations across the sleep-wake cycle.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the neuro-developmental disorder caused by various changes in the brain. It affects the life conditions with social interaction and communication. Most of the previous researches used the various techniques for the early detection to reduce the ASD, but it had been occurred several complications such as, time expenses, and low accessibility for diagnosis.
