Abstract A major bottleneck in large-scale eigenfrequency topology optimization is the repeated solution of the generalized eigenvalue problem. This work presents an efficient graphics processing unit (GPU) solver for three-dimensional (3D) topology optimization that maximizes the fundamental eigenfrequency. The Successive Iteration of Analysis and Design (SIAD) framework is employed to avoid solving a full eigenproblem at every iteration. The sequential approximation of the eigenpairs is solved by the GPU-accelerated multigrid-preconditioned conjugate gradient (MGPCG) method to efficiently improve the eigenvectors along with the topological evolution.

Abstract Viscoelastic solids, such as composite propellants, exhibit significant time and rate dependencies, and their fracture processes display high levels of nonlinearity. However, the correlation between crack propagation and viscoelastic energy dissipation in these materials remains unclear. Therefore, accurately modeling and understanding of their fracture behavior is crucial for relevant engineering applications. This study proposes a novel viscoelastic phase-field model. In the numerical implementation, the adopted adaptive time-stepping iterative strategy effectively accelerates the coupling iteration efficiency between the phase-field and the displacement field. Moreover, all unknown parameters in the model, including the form of the phase-field More >

Abstract Spherical bubble oscillations are widely used to model cavitation phenomena in biomedical and naval hydrodynamic systems. During collapse, a sudden increase in surrounding pressure initiates the collapse of a cavitation bubble, followed by a rebound driven by the high internal gas pressure. While the ideal gas equation of state (EOS) is commonly used to describe the internal pressure and temperature of the bubble, it is limited in its capacity to capture molecular-level effects under highly compressed conditions. In the present study, we employ non-ideal EOS for the gas (the van der Waals EOS and its… More >

The bubble surface is represented in an Eulerian framework by a volume-of-fluid (VOF) method, while particle motions are predicted in a Lagrangian framework. Different frameworks for describing bubble surfaces and particles make it difficult to predict the exact locations of collisions between bubbles and particles. An effective bubble, defined as having a larger diameter than the actual bubble represented by the VOF method, is introduced to predict the collision locations.

Abstract Fingerprint classification is a biometric method for crime prevention. For the successful completion of various tasks, such as official attendance, banking transactions, and membership requirements, fingerprint classification methods require improvement in terms of accuracy, speed, and the interpretability of non-linear demographic features. Researchers have introduced several CNN-based fingerprint classification models with improved accuracy, but these models often lack effective feature extraction mechanisms and complex multineural architectures. In addition, existing literature primarily focuses on gender classification rather than accurately, efficiently, and confidently classifying hands and fingers through the interpretability of prominent features. This research seeks to… More >

Abstract With the rapid growth of urbanization, smart city development has become a strategic priority worldwide, requiring complex and uncertain decision-making processes. In this context, advanced decision-support tools are essential to evaluate and prioritize competing initiatives effectively. To support effective prioritization of smart city initiatives under uncertainty, this study introduces a robust decision-making framework based on the t-arbicular fuzzy (t-AF) set—a recent extension of the t-spherical fuzzy set that incorporates an additional parameter, the radius , to enhance the representation of uncertainty. Dombi-based operational laws are formulated within this context, leading to the development of four… More >

Abstract Robotic manipulators increasingly operate in complex three-dimensional workspaces where accuracy and strict limits on position, velocity, and acceleration must be satisfied. Conventional geometric planners emphasize path smoothness but often ignore dynamic feasibility, motivating control-aware trajectory generation. This study presents a novel model predictive control (MPC) framework for three-dimensional trajectory planning of robotic manipulators that integrates second-order dynamic modeling and multi-objective parameter optimization. Unlike conventional interpolation techniques such as cubic splines, B-splines, and linear interpolation, which neglect physical constraints and system dynamics, the proposed method generates dynamically feasible trajectories by directly optimizing over acceleration inputs while… More >

Abstract Biometric authentication provides a reliable, user-specific approach for identity verification, significantly enhancing access control and security against unauthorized intrusions in cybersecurity. Unimodal biometric systems that rely on either face or voice recognition encounter several challenges, including inconsistent data quality, environmental noise, and susceptibility to spoofing attacks. To address these limitations, this research introduces a robust multi-modal biometric recognition framework, namely Quantum-Enhanced Biometric Fusion Network. The proposed model strengthens security and boosts recognition accuracy through the fusion of facial and voice features. Furthermore, the model employs advanced pre-processing techniques to generate high-quality facial images and voice… More >

Abstract Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) is essential for applications such as autonomous driving, surveillance, and analytics; However, challenges such as occlusion, low-resolution imaging, and identity switches remain persistent. We propose HAMOT, a hierarchical adaptive multi-object tracker that solves these challenges with a novel, unified framework. Unlike previous methods that rely on isolated components, HAMOT incorporates a Swin Transformer-based Adaptive Enhancement (STAE) module—comprising Scene-Adaptive Transformer Enhancement and Confidence-Adaptive Feature Refinement—to improve detection under low-visibility conditions. The hierarchical Dynamic Graph Neural Network with Temporal Attention (DGNN-TA) models both short- and long-term associations, and the Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter… More >

Abstract The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract is influenced by numerous disorders. If not detected in the early stages, they may result in severe consequences such as organ failure or the development of cancer, and in extreme cases, become life-threatening. Endoscopy is a specialised imaging technique used to examine the GI tract. However, physicians might neglect certain irregular morphologies during the examination due to continuous monitoring of the video recording. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence have led to the development of high-performance AI-based systems, which are optimal for computer-assisted diagnosis. Due to numerous limitations in endoscopic image… More >

Abstract For the past few years, the prevalence of cardiovascular disease has been showing a year-on-year increase, with a death rate of 2/5. Coronary heart disease (CHD) rates have increased 41% since 1990, which is the number one disease endangering human health in the world today. The risk indicators of CHD are complicated, so selecting effective methods to screen the risk characteristics can make the risk prediction more efficient. In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of CHD risk indicators from both data and algorithmic levels, propose a method for CHD risk indicator identification based… More >

Abstract Metaheuristic optimization methods are iterative search processes that aim to efficiently solve complex optimization problems. These basically find the solution space very efficiently, often without utilizing the gradient information, and are inspired by the bio-inspired and socially motivated heuristics. Metaheuristic optimization algorithms are increasingly applied to complex feature selection problems in high-dimensional medical datasets. Among these, Teaching-Learning-Based optimization (TLBO) has proven effective for continuous design tasks by balancing exploration and exploitation phases. However, its binary version (BTLBO) suffers from limited exploitation ability, often converging prematurely or getting trapped in local optima, particularly when applied to… More >

Abstract Skin cancer is among the most common malignancies worldwide, but its mortality burden is largely driven by aggressive subtypes such as melanoma, with outcomes varying across regions and healthcare settings. These variations emphasize the importance of reliable diagnostic technologies that support clinicians in detecting skin malignancies with higher accuracy. Traditional diagnostic methods often rely on subjective visual assessments, which can lead to misdiagnosis. This study addresses these challenges by developing HybridFusionNet, a novel model that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) with 1D feature extraction techniques to enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract This article presents a human fall detection system that addresses two critical challenges: privacy preservation and detection accuracy. We propose a comprehensive framework that integrates state-of-the-art machine learning models, multimodal data fusion, federated learning (FL), and Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT)-based resource optimization. The system fuses data from wearable sensors and cameras using Gramian Angular Field (GAF) encoding to capture rich spatial-temporal features. To protect sensitive data, we adopt a privacy-preserving FL setup, where model training occurs locally on client devices without transferring raw data. A custom convolutional neural network (CNN) is designed to extract robust features from More >

Abstract QR codes are widely used in applications such as information sharing, advertising, and digital payments. However, their growing adoption has made them attractive targets for malicious activities, including malware distribution and phishing attacks. Traditional detection approaches rely on URL analysis or image-based feature extraction, which may introduce significant computational overhead and limit real-time applicability, and their performance often depends on the quality of extracted features. Previous studies in malicious detection do not fully focus on QR code security when combining convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with recurrent neural networks (RNNs). This research proposes a deep learning… More >

Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks can stop many forms of operations by overwhelming networks and systems with data noise. Current anomaly detection methods require extensive software changes and only detect static threats. Data collection is important for being accurate, but it is often a slow, tedious, and sometimes inefficient process. This paper proposes a new… More >

Abstract Today, phishing is an online attack designed to obtain sensitive information such as credit card and bank account numbers, passwords, and usernames. We can find several anti-phishing solutions, such as heuristic detection, virtual similarity detection, black and white lists, and machine learning (ML). However, phishing attempts remain a problem, and establishing an effective anti-phishing strategy is a work in progress. Furthermore, while most anti-phishing solutions achieve the highest levels of accuracy on a given dataset, their methods suffer from an increased number of false positives. These methods are ineffective against zero-hour attacks. Phishing sites with… More >

As massive volumes of data are collected and stored in these AIoT environments, each device becomes a potential attack target, leading to increased security vulnerabilities. Therefore, intrusion detection studies have been conducted to detect malicious network traffic. However, existing studies have been biased toward conducting in-depth analyses of individual packets to improve accuracy or applying flow-based statistical information to ensure real-time performance.
