Key application of an intelligent transportation system is traffic safety, and it provides driver assistance. Safety messages are of two types, beacon messages and event messages. The nodes broadcast these messages in the vehicular networks. The system must rely on a robust medium access control (MAC) protocol to support delivery of safety messages. The standard medium access scheme that is used in vehicular networks to provide service differentiation to support various applications is IEEE 802.11p. The emergency event messages should reach the drivers immediately to take necessary steps to avoid casualties on the road. In IEEE 802.11p, both of these messages are considered with the same priority so that no separate differentiation is created. The proposed work focuses on improving the quality of service for forward collision warning applications in intelligent transportation systems. The scheme proposes a priority-based cooperative MAC (PCMAC) for channel access that works on the context of information. Simulation and analytical results validate improved performance of PCMAC in terms of packet delivery ratio, throughput, and average packet delivery delay, as compared with other eminent MAC protocols. The simulation results show that it has a 9% higher improvement in throughput than IEEE 802.11p and has better performance in the increasing number of emergency messages.

In distribution grids, excessive energy losses not only increase operational costs but also contribute to a larger environmental footprint due to inefficient resource utilization. Ensuring optimal placement of photovoltaic (PV) energy systems is crucial for achieving maximum efficiency and reliability in power distribution networks. This research introduces the Pelican Optimizer (PO) algorithm to optimally integrate solar PV systems to radial electrical distribution grids.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, offering significant advancements in patient care, clinical workflows, and nursing education. While AI has the potential to enhance health outcomes and operational efficiency, its integration into nursing practice and education raises critical ethical, social, and educational challenges that must be addressed to ensure responsible and equitable adoption.
Objective: This umbrella review aims to evaluate the integration of AI into nursing practice and education, with a focus on ethical and social implications, and to propose evidence-based recommendations to support the responsible and effective adoption of AI technologies in nursing.
This article deals with the observer-based control problem of networked periodic piecewise systems under encoding-decoding frameworks. An encoder with a uniform quantizer, which can compress and encrypt data, is provided to process the measurements from the sensors. The processed data is transmitted over the network to the decoder to recover the original data and then to the remote control station, thereby reducing the communication burden and ensuring data security.

IEEE Trans Cybern
March 2025
Neighborhood rough sets are an effective model for handling numerical and categorical data entangled with vagueness, imprecision, or uncertainty. However, existing neighborhood rough set models and their feature selection methods treat each sample equally, whereas different types of samples inherently play different roles in constructing neighborhood granules and evaluating the goodness of features. In this study, the sample weight information is first introduced into neighborhood rough sets, and a novel weighted neighborhood rough set model is consequently constructed.

IEEE Trans Med Imaging
March 2025
The detection of cardiac phase in ultrasound videos, identifying end-systolic (ES) and end-diastolic (ED) frames, is a critical step in assessing cardiac function, monitoring structural changes, and diagnosing congenital heart disease. Current popular methods use recurrent neu ral networks to track dependencies over long sequences for cardiac phase detection, but often overlook the short-term motion of cardiac valves that sonographers rely on. In this paper, we propose a novel optical flow-enhanced Mamba U-net framework, designed to utilize both short-term motion and long-term dependencies to detect the cardiac phase in ultrasound videos.
