Versatile waste sorting in small batch and flexible manufacturing industries using deep learning techniques by Arso M. Vukicevic, Milos Petrovic, Nebojsa Jurisevic, Marko Djapan, Nikola Knezevic, Aleksandar Novakovic, Kosta Jovanovic

“…Such a pipeline brings two key advantages that make it more applicable in industry practice by: 1) eliminating the necessity for developing dedicated waste detection and segmentation algorithms for waste object localization, and 2) significantly reducing the time and costs required for adapting the solution to different use cases. With the proposed procedure, switching to a new waste type sorting is reduced to only two steps: The use of SAM for the automatic object extraction, followed by their separation into corresponding classes used to fine-tune the classifier. …”

Somatic Transformations in the Context of Antropotechnogynesis at the Modern Stage by І. Р. Pecheranskyi

“…In the base of the paradigmatic ontological and anthropological shift which has been on the modern stage, lies the idea of continuity of anthropotechnological co-evolution of the human body and its environment which projects itself in psychosomatic human structure, making a transformation program for better adaptation in technonanobeing. The convergence of human life and techno-existence is a platform for somatic transformations. …”

The Parallel Architecture—application and explanatory power for neurolinguistic research by Esther Odilia Breuer, Ferdinand Christoph Binkofski, Ferdinand Christoph Binkofski, Antonello Pellicano

“…Since the Parallel Architecture is a framework of linguistic structures for modeling language processes rather than a model of specific linguistic processes per se, it is open to new connections and elements, and therefore open to adaptations and extensions as indicated by new findings in neuro- or psycholinguistics.…”

Urdu Lip Reading Systems for Digits in Controlled and Uncontrolled Environment by Amanullah Baloch, Mushtaq Ali, Lal Hussain, Touseef Sadiq, Badr S. Alkahtani

“…Despite advancements in lip reading for several languages, there has been limited success in developing an effective model for Urdu lip reading due to the lack of an appropriate dataset and the challenges faced by earlier models, such as the unsuccessful adaptation of the LipNet model to Urdu. To address these issues, we contribute by introducing the ULRD dataset, employing diverse data augmentation techniques, and comparing three DNN models: a Hybrid 2D-3D CNN-LSTM model, a LipNet-based 2D CNN-LSTM model, and a baseline 3D CNN-GRU model. …”

Significant abundance of bacterial flagellin and expression of its surface localized receptor toll-like receptor 5 and cytokine interleukin-22 in South African infants with poor or... by Nontlantla J. Haindongo, Mapaseka Seheri, Cliff A. Magwira

“…Abstract Bacterial flagellin, a potent intestinal innate immune activator, prevents murine rotavirus (RV) infection independent of adaptive immunity and interferons. The flagellin-induced immunity is mediated by Toll-like receptor (TLR5) and Nod-like receptor C4 (NLRC4), which elicit the production of interleukins 22 (IL-22) and IL-18, respectively. …”
