Colposcopy plays a vital role in detecting cervical cancer. Artificial intelligence-based methods have been implemented in the literature for the classification of colposcopy images. However, there is a need for a more effective method that can accurately classify cervigrams. In this paper, ColpoClassifier, a hybrid framework for the classification of cervigrams, is proposed, which consists of feature extraction followed by classification. This paper uses a Gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), a Gray-level run length matrix (GLRLM), and a histogram of gradients (HOG) for feature extraction. These features are combined to form a feature fusion vector of the form GLCM + GLRLM + HOG. The different machine learning classifiers are used for classification by using individual feature vectors as well as feature fusion vectors. The dataset used in this paper is compiled by downloading images from the WHO website. Two variants of this dataset are created, Dataset-I contains images of the aceto-whitening effect, green filter, iodine application, and raw cervigram while Dataset-II only contains images of the aceto-whitening effect. This paper presents the classification performance on all kinds of images with the individual as well as hybrid feature fusion vector and concludes that hybrid feature fusion vectors on aceto-whitening images have given the best results.

Chirality epitomizes the sophistication of chemistry, representing some of its most remarkable achievements. Yet, the precise synthesis of chiral structures from achiral building blocks remains a profound and enduring challenge in synthetic chemistry and materials science. Here, we demonstrate that achiral colloidal nanocrystals, including Au and Ag nanocrystals, can assemble into long-range-ordered helical assemblies with the assistance of chiral molecules.

Bone tissue regeneration can be affected by various architectonical features of 3D porous scaffold, for example, pore size and shape, strut size, curvature, or porosity. However, the design of additively manufactured structures studied so far was based on uniform geometrical figures and unit cell structures, which often do not resemble the natural architecture of cancellous bone. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of architectonical features of additively manufactured (aka 3D printed) titanium scaffolds designed based on microtomographic scans of fragments of human femurs of individuals of different ages on in vitro response of human bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC).

Thanks to the identification of crucial molecular pathways, the therapeutic landscape for advanced differentiated thyroid tumors (DTCs) has significantly improved during the last ten years. The therapeutic scenario has been greatly impacted by the discovery of mutually exclusive gene changes in the MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways, such as or fusions and pathogenic mutations of the and genes. Indeed, multi-kinase inhibitors and selective inhibitors have demonstrated outstanding efficacy for radioactive iodine-refractory (RAI-R) drug treatment, with overall response rates reaching up to 86%.

Existing image fusion methods primarily focus on complex network structure designs while neglecting the limitations of simple fusion strategies in complex scenarios. To address this issue, this study proposes a new method for infrared and visible image fusion based on a multimodal large language model. The method proposed in this paper fully considers the high demand for semantic information in enhancing image quality as well as the fusion strategies in complex scenes.
