Background: You Only Look Once version 5 (YOLOv5), a one-stage deep-learning (DL) algorithm for object detection and classification, offers high speed and accuracy for identifying targets.
Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of using the YOLOv5 algorithm to non-invasively distinguish between aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) and non-functional adrenocortical adenomas (NF-ACAs) on computed tomography (CT) images.
Material And Methods: A total of 235 patients who were diagnosed with ACAs between January 2011 and July 2022 were included in this study. Of the 215 patients, 81 (37.7%) had APAs and 134 (62.3%) had NF-ACAs' they were randomly divided into either the training set or the validation set at a ratio of 9:1. Another 20 patients, including 8 (40.0%) with APA and 12 (60.0%) with NF-ACA, were collected for the testing set. Five submodels (YOLOv5n, YOLOv5s, YOLOv5m, YOLOv5l, and YOLOv5x) of YOLOv5 were trained and evaluated on the datasets.
Results: In the testing set, the mAP_0.5 value for YOLOv5x (0.988) was higher than the values for YOLOv5n (0.969), YOLOv5s (0.965), YOLOv5m (0.974), and YOLOv5l (0.983). The mAP_0.5:0.95 value for YOLOv5x (0.711) was also higher than the values for YOLOv5n (0.587), YOLOv5s (0.674), YOLOv5m (0.671), and YOLOv5l (0.698) in the testing set. The inference speed of YOLOv5n was 2.4 ms in the testing set, which was the fastest among the five submodels.
Conclusion: The YOLOv5 algorithm can accurately and efficiently distinguish between APAs and NF-ACAs on CT images, especially YOLOv5x has the best identification performance.

Emerging photovoltaics for outer space applications are one of the many examples where radiation hard molecular semiconductors are essential. However, due to a lack of general design principles, their resilience against extra-terrestrial high-energy radiation can currently not be predicted. In this work, the discovery of radiation hard materials is accelerated by combining the strengths of high-throughput, lab automation and machine learning.

Telerehabilitation is a new form of care that provides digital access to rehabilitative services. However, it places many demands on the users-both patients and therapists. The aim of this study was to determine the requirements and competencies needed for successful usage, identify person- and context-specific differences and develop a competency model.

Small rodents can cause problems on farms such as infrastructure damage, crop losses or pathogen transfer. The latter threatens humans and livestock alike. Frequent contacts between wild rodents and livestock favour pathogen transfer and it is therefore important to understand the movement patterns of small mammals in order to develop strategies to prevent damage and health issues.

Artificial intelligence technology has introduced a new research paradigm into the fields of quantum chemistry and materials science, leading to numerous studies that utilize machine learning methods to predict molecular properties. We contend that an exemplary deep learning model should not only achieve high-precision predictions of molecular properties but also incorporate guidance from physical mechanisms. Here, we propose a framework for predicting molecular properties based on data-driven electron density images, referred to as D3-ImgNet.

Background: Psychotherapy is central to the treatment of mental disorders, highlighting the importance of medical students and residents developing competencies in this area. Chinese medical residents have expressed a strong need for psychotherapy training, yet they are generally dissatisfied with the current offerings. This paper presents the protocol for an evidence-based, well-structured psychotherapy teaching program aimed at medical students and residents.
