CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that carrageenan, a common food additive, may contribute to insulin resistance and subclinical inflammation in overweight individuals through pro-inflammatory mechanisms in the gut. Further investigation into the long-term health impacts of carrageenan and other food additives is warranted. →
SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is one of the important techniques used in robotics and computer vision. It helps machines understand where they are and create a map of their surroundings. Motion-blurred images face difficulties in dense visual SLAM systems for two reasons: 1) Inaccurate pose estimation during tracking: Current photo-realistic dense visual SLAM algorithms… →
Intrusion detection systems (IDS) encounter significant challenges in detecting zero-day or unknown cyberattacks, which are not included in the training data. These attacks do not have any identifiable pattern and cannot be easily detected by traditional techniques. The lack of annotated samples of attacks, the highly dynamic nature of attack methodologies, and the problem of… →
INTRODUCTION: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) undergoing dialysis exhibit a higher mortality rate compared with those with other conditions, primarily due to vascular complications including coronary artery disease, heart failure and stroke. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a type of drug for T2D, have reportedly decreased cardiovascular and renal events in patients with heart… →
Computer vision is revolutionizing due to the development of foundation models in object recognition, image segmentation, and monocular depth estimation, showing strong zero- and few-shot performance across various downstream tasks. Stereo matching, which helps perceive depth and create 3D views of scenes, is crucial for fields like robotics, self-driving cars, and augmented reality. However, the… →
The development of AI agents as autonomous tools capable of handling complex tasks has led to a significant advancement in artificial intelligence. Foundry, a Y Combinator-backed startup, aims to be the “Operating System” for AI agents, making AI automation more accessible, manageable, and scalable. Let’s take a closer look at what Foundry is, how it… →
Cell segmentation and classification are vital tasks in spatial omics data analysis, which provides unprecedented insights into cellular structures and tissue functions. Recent advancements in spatial omics technologies have enabled high-resolution analysis of intact tissues, supporting initiatives like the Human Tumor Atlas Network and the Human Biomolecular Atlas Program in mapping spatial organizations in healthy… →
