Contamination of the electroencephalogram (EEG) by artifacts greatly reduces the quality of the recorded signals. There is a need for automated artifact removal methods. However, such methods are rarely evaluated against one another via rigorous criteria, with results often presented based upon visual inspection alone. This work presents a comparative study of automatic methods for removing blink, electrocardiographic, and electromyographic artifacts from the EEG. Three methods are considered; wavelet, blind source separation (BSS), and multivariate singular spectrum analysis (MSSA)-based correction. These are applied to data sets containing mixtures of artifacts. Metrics are devised to measure the performance of each method. The BSS method is seen to be the best approach for artifacts of high signal to noise ratio (SNR). By contrast, MSSA performs well at low SNRs but at the expense of a large number of false positive corrections.

This study investigates radiomic efficacy in post-surgical traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), overcoming MRI limitations from metal artifacts to enhance diagnosis, severity assessment, and lesion characterization or prognosis and therapy guidance. Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) causes severe neurological deficits. While MRI allows qualitative injury evaluation, standard imaging alone has limitations for precise SCI diagnosis, severity stratification, and pathology characterization, which are needed to guide prognosis and therapy.

High-throughput mesoscopic optical imaging technology has tremendously boosted the efficiency of procuring massive mesoscopic datasets from mouse brains. Constrained by the imaging field of view, the image strips obtained by such technologies typically require further processing, such as cross-sectional stitching, artifact removal, and signal area cropping, to meet the requirements of subsequent analyse. However, obtaining a batch of raw array mouse brain data at a resolution of can reach 220TB, and the cropping of the outer contour areas in the disjointed processing still relies on manual visual observation, which consumes substantial computational resources and labor costs.

Context.—: Precise determination of biomarker status is necessary for clinical trial enrollment and endpoint analyses, as well as for optimal treatment determination in real-world practice. However, variabilities may be introduced into this process due to the processing of clinical specimens by different laboratories and assessment by distinct pathologists.

The underwater imaging process is often hindered by high noise levels, blurring, and color distortion due to light scattering, absorption, and suspended particles in the water. To address the challenges of image enhancement in complex underwater environments, this paper proposes an underwater image color correction and detail enhancement model based on an improved Cycle-consistent Generative Adversarial Network (CycleGAN), named LPIPS-MAFA CycleGAN (LM-CycleGAN). The model integrates a Multi-scale Adaptive Fusion Attention (MAFA) mechanism into the generator architecture to enhance its ability to perceive image details.

Introduction/aims: In healthy subjects, we observed high amplitude motor unit potential (MUP) waveforms that resembled the cannula potential (CP) with a positive sharp wave (PSW)-like waveform. We analyzed the source of this signal, its prevalence, and its effects on the analysis of electromyographic waveforms.
Methods: Three channel recordings were performed to explore the contribution of the needle core and cannula to the MUP.
