Article Abstract

Germinal matrix hemorrhage (GMH) is a critical condition affecting premature infants, commonly diagnosed through cranial ultrasound imaging. This study presents an advanced deep learning approach for automated GMH grading using the YOLOv8 model. By analyzing a dataset of 586 infants, we classified ultrasound images into five distinct categories: Normal, Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3, and Grade 4. Utilizing transfer learning and data augmentation techniques, the YOLOv8 model achieved exceptional performance, with a mean average precision (mAP50) of 0.979 and a mAP50-95 of 0.724. These results indicate that the YOLOv8 model can significantly enhance the accuracy and efficiency of GMH diagnosis, providing a valuable tool to support radiologists in clinical settings.

Center for Precision and Automated Agricultural Systems, Department of Biological Systems Engineering, Washington State University, Prosser, WA, United States.

Molecular-based detection of pathogens from potato tubers hold promise, but the initial sample extraction process is labor-intensive. Developing a robotic tuber sampling system, equipped with a fast and precise machine vision technique to identify optimal sampling locations on a potato tuber, offers a viable solution. However, detecting sampling locations such as eyes and stolon scar is challenging due to variability in their appearance, size, and shape, along with soil adhering to the tubers.

To achieve real-time monitoring and intelligent maintenance of transformers, a framework based on deep vision and digital twin has been developed. An enhanced visual detection model, DETR + X, is proposed, implementing multidimensional sample data augmentation through Swin2SR and GAN networks. This model converts one-dimensional DGA data into three-dimensional feature images based on Gram angle fields, facilitating the transformation and fusion of heterogeneous modal information.

Magnetic resonance (MR) images are commonly used to diagnose prolapsed lumbar intervertebral disc (PLID). However, for a computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) system, distinguishing between pathological abnormalities of PLID in MR images is a challenging and intricate task. Here, we propose a comprehensive model for the automatic detection and cropping of regions of interest (ROI) from sagittal MR images using the YOLOv8 framework to solve this challenge.
