Techniques based on the elasto-magnetic (EM) effect have been receiving increasing attention for their significant advantages in cable stress/force monitoring of in-service structures. Variations in ambient temperature affect the magnetic behaviors of steel components, causing errors in the sensor and measurement system results. Therefore, temperature compensation is essential. In this paper, the effect of temperature on the force monitoring of steel cables using smart elasto-magneto-electric (EME) sensors was investigated experimentally. A back propagation (BP) neural network method is proposed to obtain a direct readout of the applied force in the engineering environment, involving less computational complexity. On the basis of the data measured in the experiment, an improved BP neural network model was established. The test result shows that, over a temperature range of approximately −10 °C to 60 °C, the maximum relative error in the force measurement is within ±0.9%. A polynomial fitting method was also implemented for comparison. It is concluded that the method based on a BP neural network can be more reliable, effective and robust, and can be extended to temperature compensation of other similar sensors.

The socioeconomic burden of hip fractures, the most severe osteoporotic fracture outcome, is increasing and the current clinical risk assessment lacks sensitivity. This study aimed to develop a method for improved prediction of hip fracture by incorporating measurements of bone microstructure and composition derived from high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). In a prospective cohort study of 3028 community-dwelling women aged 75 to 80, all participants answered questionnaires and underwent baseline examinations of anthropometrics and bone by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT.

With the increasing number of patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD), the demand for early diagnosis and intervention is becoming increasingly urgent. The traditional detection methods for Alzheimer's disease mainly rely on clinical symptoms, biomarkers, and imaging examinations. However, these methods have limitations in the early detection of Alzheimer's disease, such as strong subjectivity in diagnostic criteria, high detection costs, and high misdiagnosis rates.

To enhance the intelligent classification of computer vulnerabilities and improve the efficiency and accuracy of network security management, this study delves into the application of a comprehensive classification system that integrates the Memristor Neural Network (MNN) and an improved Temporal Convolutional Neural Network (TCNN) in network security management. This system not only focuses on the precise classification of vulnerability data but also emphasizes its core role in strengthening the network security management framework. Firstly, the study designs and implements a neural network model based on memristors.

Modernizing power systems into smart grids has introduced numerous benefits, including enhanced efficiency, reliability, and integration of renewable energy sources. However, this advancement has also increased vulnerability to cyber threats, particularly False Data Injection Attacks (FDIAs). Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) often fall short in identifying sophisticated FDIAs due to their reliance on predefined rules and signatures.
