Analysis of Facial Cues for Cognitive Decline Detection Using In-the-Wild Data by Fatimah Alzahrani, Steve Maddock, Heidi Christensen

“…Video-based analysis offers a promising, low-cost alternative to resource-intensive clinical assessments. This paper investigates visual features (eye blink rate (EBR), head turn rate (HTR), and head movement statistical features (HMSFs)) for distinguishing between neurodegenerative disorders (NDs), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), functional memory disorders (FMDs), and healthy controls (HCs). …”

McQuinn, Julian B. Muñoz, Priyamvada Natarajan, Alberto Saldana-Lopez, Katherine A. Suess, Marta Volonteri, Adi Zitrin

“…These properties indicate the presence of a nascent, metal-deficient young stellar population (<5 Myr) with a stellar mass of ≃10 ^5 M _⊙ . Intriguingly, this source deviates significantly from the extrapolated UV–metallicity relation derived from recent JWST observations at z = 4–10, consistent with UV enhancement by a top-heavy Pop III initial mass function or the presence of an extremely metal-poor active galactic nucleus. …”

Analysis of the Relationship Between Assimilate Production and Allocation and the Formation of Rice Quality by Jianming Tu, Fengting Wen, Feitong Li, Tingting Chen, Baohua Feng, Jie Xiong, Guanfu Fu, Yebo Qin, Wenting Wang

“…Correlation analysis indicated that dry matter mass and net photosynthetic rate were significantly positively correlated with yield, but not with taste quality, highlighting the complexity of taste quality formation. Using a membership function comprehensive evaluation method (combines the outputs of multiple membership functions into a single composite value using specific rules (e.g., weighted average, extremum, logical operations) to produce a new membership degree.), a rice variety selection system balancing yield and quality was constructed, and three varieties (Zhongzheyou 8, Huazheyou 261, and Quanyousimiao) were identified as having both high yield and excellent quality. …”
