As a powerful imaging tool, X-ray computed tomography (CT) allows us to investigate the inner structures of specimens in a quantitative and nondestructive way. Limited by the implementation conditions, CT with incomplete projections happens quite often. Conventional reconstruction algorithms are not easy to deal with incomplete data. They are usually involved with complicated parameter selection operations, also sensitive to noise and time-consuming. In this paper, we reported a deep learning reconstruction framework for incomplete data CT. It is the tight coupling of the deep learning U-net and CT reconstruction algorithm in the domain of the projection sinograms. The U-net estimated results are not the artifacts caused by the incomplete data, but the complete projection sinograms. After training, this framework is determined and can reconstruct the final high quality CT image from a given incomplete projection sinogram. Taking the sparse-view and limited-angle CT as examples, this framework has been validated and demonstrated with synthetic and experimental data sets. Embedded with CT reconstruction, this framework naturally encapsulates the physical imaging model of CT systems and is easy to be extended to deal with other challenges. This work is helpful to push the application of the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques in the field of CT.

Background: This study employs a LSTM-FC neural networks to address the critical public health issue of child undernutrition in Ethiopia. By employing this method, the study aims classify children's nutritional status and predict transitions between different undernutrition states over time. This analysis is based on longitudinal data extracted from the Young Lives cohort study, which tracked 1,997 Ethiopian children across five survey rounds conducted from 2002 to 2016.

The expansion of LEAN and small batch manufacturing demands flexible automated workstations capable of switching between sorting various wastes over time. To address this challenge, our study is focused on assessing the ability of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) family of deep learning architectures to separate highly variable objects during robotic waste sorting. The proposed two-step procedure for generic versatile visual waste sorting is based on the SAM architectures (original SAM, FastSAM, MobileSAMv2, and EfficientSAM) for waste object extraction from raw images, and the use of classification architecture (MobileNetV2, VGG19, Dense-Net, Squeeze-Net, ResNet, and Inception-v3) for accurate waste sorting.

Numerous studies have proven the potential of deep learning models for classifying wildlife. Such models can reduce the workload of experts by automating species classification to monitor wild populations and global trade. Although deep learning models typically perform better with more input data, the available wildlife data are ordinarily limited, specifically for rare or endangered species.

The diverse types and sizes, proximity to non-nodule structures, identical shape characteristics, and varying sizes of nodules make them challenging for segmentation methods. Although many efforts have been made in automatic lung nodule segmentation, most of them have not sufficiently addressed the challenges related to the type and size of nodules, such as juxta-pleural and juxta-vascular nodules. The current research introduces a Squeeze-Excitation Dilated Attention-based Residual U-Net (SEDARU-Net) with a robust intensity normalization technique to address the challenges related to different types and sizes of lung nodules and to achieve an improved lung nodule segmentation.
