OPTICS is a density-based clustering algorithm that performs well in a wide variety of applications. For a set of input objects, the algorithm creates a reachability plot that can either be used to produce cluster membership assignments, or interpreted itself as an expressive two-dimensional representation of the clustering structure of the input set, even if the input set is embedded in higher dimensions. The focus of this work is a visualization method that can be applied for comparing two, independent hierarchical clusterings by assigning colors to all entries of the input database. We give two applications related to macromolecular structural properties: the first is a sequence-based clustering of the SwissProt database that is evaluated using NCBI taxonomy identifiers, and the second application involves clustering locations of specific atoms in the serine protease enzyme family-and the clusters are evaluated using SCOP structural classifications.

Aims: To develop a transformer-based generative adversarial network (trans-GAN) that can generate synthetic material decomposition images from single-energy CT (SECT) for real-time detection of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) after endovascular thrombectomy.
Materials: We retrospectively collected data from two hospitals, consisting of 237 dual-energy CT (DECT) scans, including matched iodine overlay maps, virtual noncontrast, and simulated SECT images. These scans were randomly divided into a training set (n = 190) and an internal validation set (n = 47) in a 4:1 ratio based on the proportion of ICH.

Unlabelled: Due to the increasing number of people working at computers in professional settings, the incidence of lumbar disc herniation is increasing.
Background/objectives: The early diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation is much more likely to yield favorable results, allowing the hernia to be treated before it develops further. The aim of this study was to classify lumbar disc herniations in a computer-aided, fully automated manner using magnetic resonance images (MRIs).

Background: Decoding motor intentions from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is a critical component of motor imagery-based brain-computer interface (MI-BCIs). In traditional EEG signal classification, effectively utilizing the valuable information contained within the electroencephalogram is crucial.
Objectives: To further optimize the use of information from various domains, we propose a novel framework based on multi-domain feature rotation transformation and stacking ensemble for classifying MI tasks.

Purpose: This paper aims to delve into the critical aspect of supplier selection in the healthcare sector, emphasizing the significance of strategic sourcing in enhancing operational efficiency and quality of services. The primary aim is to develop a comprehensive framework for supplier evaluation that aligns with the unique requirements of hospitals, ultimately improving procurement processes and patient care outcomes.
Design/methodology/approach: The study leverages the renowned Carter's 7 C model as a foundational framework for supplier assessment, supplemented by insights gathered from interviews with experts in the New Product Introduction, Purchasing and Procurement departments of a leading hospital in India.
