We present a new technique to enable the creation of shape-bounded Wordles, we call ShapeWordle, in which we fit words to form a given shape. To guide word placement within a shape, we extend the traditional Archimedean spirals to be shape-aware by formulating the spirals in a differential form using the distance field of the shape. To handle non-convex shapes, we introduce a multi-centric Wordle layout method that segments the shape into parts for our shape-aware spirals to adaptively fill the space and generate word placements. In addition, we offer a set of editing interactions to facilitate the creation of semantically-meaningful Wordles. Lastly, we present three evaluations: a comprehensive comparison of our results against the state-of-the-art technique (WordArt), case studies with 14 users, and a gallery to showcase the coverage of our technique.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnosis benefits significantly from advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and image processing techniques. This paper explores various approaches for processing hand-drawn Archimedean spirals in order to detect signs of PD.
Methods: The best approach is selected to be integrated in a neurodegenerative disease management platform called NeuroPredict.

Objectives: No standard, objective diagnostic procedure exists for most neurological diseases causing tremors. Therefore, drawing tests have been widely analyzed to support diagnostic procedures. In this study, we examine the comparison of Archimedean spiral and line drawings, the possibilities of their joint application, and the relevance of displaying pressure on the drawings to recognize Parkinsonism and cerebellar dysfunction.

Liquid leakage of pipeline networks not only results in considerable resource wastage but also leads to environmental pollution and ecological imbalance. In response to this global issue, a bioinspired superhydrophobic thermoplastic polyurethane/carbon nanotubes/graphene nanosheets flexible strain sensor (TCGS) has been developed using a combination of micro-extrusion compression molding and surface modification for real-time wireless detection of liquid leakage. The TCGS utilizes the synergistic effects of Archimedean spiral crack arrays and micropores, which are inspired by the remarkable sensory capabilities of scorpions.

In this Letter we demonstrate the use of plasmonic focusing in conjunction with nonlinear photoemission to develop geometrically flat nanoscale electron sources with less than 40 pm-rad root mean squared (rms) normalized transverse emittance. Circularly polarized light is incident on a gold Archimedean spiral structure to generate surface-plasmon polaritons that interfere coherently at the center resulting in a 50 nm rms emission area. Such a nanostructured flat surface enables simultaneous spatiotemporal confinement of emitted electrons at the nanometer and femtosecond level and can be used as an advanced electron source for high-repetition-rate ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy experiments as well as the next generation of miniaturized particle accelerators.

Space gravitational wave detection requires establishing laser links between distributed spacecraft for interferometry. Inter-satellite laser link acquisition is an essential step in this process. Considering the spacecraft's miniaturization and reliability, a bidirectional scanning acquisition method is proposed using only field emission electric propulsion and quadrant photodetector.
