Objective: To analyze how university students self-evaluate their academic performance during the COVID-19 pandemic in a public university in southern Brazil.
Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 527 students of undergraduate courses in the health field. Descriptive statistical analyses and the chi-square test were performed to assess associations.
Results: For 49.5% of participants their academic performance was insufficient; for 24.1%, sufficient; 19.40%, good; 5.90% very good; and 1.10% excellent. It was found that there was an association between the variables, course (p=0.034), form of enrollment into the institution (p=0.016) and work activity (p=0.010) in academic performance during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Conclusion: Academic performance during the suspension of face-to-face classes is insufficient for many students, and groups of students from the occupational therapy course, who entered the university through the system of quotas and who work in addition to studying showed an inferior academic performance during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The recent coronavirus disease (COVID-19) forced pre-university professionals to modify the educational system. This work aimed to determine the effects of pandemic situation on students' access to medical studies by comparing the performance of medical students. We evaluated the performance of students enrolled in a subject taught in the first semester of the medical curriculum in two pre-pandemic academic years (PRE), two post-pandemic years (POST), and an intermediate year (INT) using the results of a final multiple-choice exam.

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Object Detection (UDA-OD) aims to adapt a model trained on a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain, addressing challenges posed by domain shifts. However, existing methods often face significant challenges, particularly in detecting small objects and over-relying on classification confidence for pseudo-label selection, which often leads to inaccurate bounding box localization. To address these issues, we propose a novel UDA-OD framework that leverages scale consistency (SC) and Temporal Ensemble Pseudo-Label Selection (TEPLS) to enhance cross-domain robustness and detection performance.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the field of sports science by providing unprecedented insights and tools that enhance training, performance, and health management. This work examines how AI is advancing the role of sports scientists, particularly in team sports environments, by improving training load management, sports performance, and player well-being. It explores key dimensions such as load optimization, injury prevention and return-to-play, sports performance, talent identification and scouting, off-training behavior, sleep quality, and menstrual cycle management.
