This article proposes a deep learning-assisted nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique for locating and sizing a coating delamination using ultrasonic guided waves. The proposed technique consists of sending a propagating guided wave into a coated plate with a transducer and measuring the corresponding time-domain signals by receivers at several locations at downstream distances from the source transducer. The received time-domain signals are then provided to a trained machine-learning (ML) algorithm, which subsequently outputs the location and size of any delamination flaws between the transducer and receivers. Numerical simulations show that the proposed NDE technique yields accurate results with high throughput, once the ML algorithm is well trained. Although training the ML algorithm is time-consuming, this training only needs to be done once for a given sample configuration. The results of this article demonstrate that the proposed technique has great potential for characterizing delamination flaws in practical NDE and structural health monitoring (SHM) applications.

Timely and accurate detection of trace mycotoxins in agricultural products and food is significant for ensuring food safety and public health. Herein, a deep learning-assisted and entropy-driven catalysis (EDC)-Argonaute powered fluorescence single-particle aptasensing platform was developed for ultrasensitive detection of fumonisin B (FB) using single-stranded DNA modified with biotin and red fluorescence-encoded microspheres as a signal probe and streptavidin-conjugated magnetic beads as separation carriers. The binding of aptamer with FB releases the trigger sequence to mediate EDC cycle to produce numerous 5'-phosphorylated output sequences, which can be used as the guide DNA to activate downstream Argonaute (Ago) for cleaving the signal probe, resulting in increased number of fluorescence microspheres remaining in the final reaction supernatant after magnetic separation.

Digital fluorescence immunoassay (DFI) based on random dispersion magnetic beads (MBs) is one of the powerful methods for ultrasensitive determination of protein biomarkers. However, in the DFI, improving the limit of detection (LOD) is challenging since the ratio of signal-to-background and the speed of manual counting beads are low. Herein, we developed a deep-learning network (ATTBeadNet) by utilizing a new hybrid attention mechanism within a UNet3+ framework for accurately and fast counting the MBs and proposed a DFI using CdS quantum dots (QDs) with narrow peak and optical stability as reported at first time.

Background And Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a significant cause of life-threatening heart disease due to its potential to lead to stroke and heart failure. Although deep learning-assisted diagnosis of AF based on ECG holds significance in clinical settings, it remains unsatisfactory due to insufficient consideration of noise and redundant features. In this work, we propose a novel multiscale feature-enhanced gating network (MFEG Net) for AF diagnosis.

Purpose To assess the impact of scanner manufacturer and scan protocol on the performance of deep learning models to classify prostate cancer (PCa) aggressiveness on biparametric MRI (bpMRI). Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, 5,478 cases from ProstateNet, a PCa bpMRI dataset with examinations from 13 centers, were used to develop five deep learning (DL) models to predict PCa aggressiveness with minimal lesion information and test how using data from different subgroups-scanner manufacturers and endorectal coil (ERC) use (Siemens, Philips, GE with and without ERC and the full dataset)-impacts model performance. Performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).

Background: Extrahepatic Common Bile Duct Obstruction (EHBDO) is a serious condition that requires accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a widely used noninvasive imaging technique for visualizing bile ducts, but its interpretation can be complex.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a deep learning-based classification model that integrates MRCP images and clinical parameters to assist radiologists in diagnosing EHBDO more accurately.
