Assessing the salinization mechanisms of coastal brackish springs by Sanz, Esteban, Carrera, Jesús, Ayora, Carlos, Barón, Alfredo, González, Concha

“…These turn out to be similar to the traditional ones, except that (1) Bernouilli’s head (energy per unit weight) is substituted by the energy per unit volume, and (2) this energy is not a potential, as a flow path dependent term needs to be added. We solve these equations to obtain the characteristic functions relating fresh to seawater discharge depending on spring concentration. …”

Leveraging hybrid model of ConvNextBase and LightGBM for early ASD detection via eye-gaze analysis by Ranjeet Bidwe, Sashikala Mishra, Simi Bajaj, Ketan Kotecha

“…This proposed work offers • A novel method of ConvNextBase and LightGBM leveraging eye position as a feature for early detection of autistic traits. • A new ConvNextBase architecture proposed with few unfreezed layers and extra dense layers with units of 512 and 128, respectively, and dropout layers with a rate of 0.5 that extract rich, high-level, and more complex features from the images to improve generalization and mitigate overfitting. • A LightGBM model performed classification using 3-fold cross-validation and found the best parameters for bagging_function, feature_fraction, max_depth, Number_of_leaves and learning_rate with values of 0.8, 0.8, −1, 31 and 0.1 respectively, to improve the model's robustness on unseen data.This proposed method is trained and tested on the publicly available Kaggle dataset, and results are benchmarked with other state-of-the-art methods. …”
