We propose a model-free method to detect change points between distinct phases in a single random trajectory of an intermittent stochastic process. The local convex hull (LCH) is constructed for each trajectory point, while its geometric properties (e.g., the diameter or the volume) are used as discriminators between phases. The efficiency of the LCH method is validated for six models of intermittent motion, including Brownian motion with different diffusivities or drifts, fractional Brownian motion with different Hurst exponents, and surface-mediated diffusion. We discuss potential applications of the method for detection of active and passive phases in the intracellular transport, temporal trapping or binding of diffusing molecules, alternating bulk and surface diffusion, run and tumble (or search) phases in the motion of bacteria and foraging animals, and instantaneous firing rates in neurons.

This letter proposed a sparse deconvolution localization method (FFT-L1ML2) driven by non-convex L1-αL2 regularization that more closely approximates the ideal L0 norm. It is an alternative that explores the sparse structure of sound sources to enhance localization accuracy, while the original sparse deconvolution beamforming lacks a sufficiently accurate sparse description. An optimization solver composed of forward gradient descent and backward proximal operator is then developed for the FFT-L1ML2 model to reconstruct the beamforming map.

Calcified chronic subdural hematoma (CCSDH) is a rare condition characterized by the accumulation of calcified blood between the dura mater and arachnoid membrane, typically following remote trauma. These lesions often present as space-occupying, extra-axial masses over the cerebral convexity and can mimic extra-axial tumors, such as calcified meningiomas. A 73-year-old male with a history of prostate cancer, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia presented with vision changes and mild papilledema.

Machine learning has advanced the rapid prediction of inorganic materials properties, yet data scarcity for specific properties and capturing thermodynamic stability remains challenging. We propose a framework utilizing a Graph Neural Network with composition-based and crystal structure-based architectures, combined with a transfer learning scheme. This approach accurately predicts energy-related properties (e.

Background: Photon-counting computed tomography (CT) is an advanced imaging technique that enables multi-energy imaging from a single scan. However, the limited photon count assigned to narrow energy bins leads to increased quantum noise in the reconstructed spectral images. To address this issue, leveraging the prior information in the spectral images is essential.

Mining electric shovels are one of the core equipments for open-pit mining, and are currently moving towards intelligent and unmanned transformation, with intelligent mining instead of traditional manual operation. In the excavation operation process, due to the complexity and changeability of the material surfaces, different excavation strategies should be adopted to achieve the optimal excavation trajectory. It is an important research direction to realize the unmanned excavation of electric shovels by studying a trajectory planning method that is not limited to fixed resting angle surface, can comprehensively consider the type of material surfaces and aim at the minimum excavation energy consumption per unit volume.
