Abstract Breast cancer screening programs rely heavily on mammography for early detection; however, diagnostic performance is strongly affected by inter-reader variability, breast density, and the limitations of conventional computer-aided detection systems. Recent advances in deep learning have enabled more robust and scalable solutions for large-scale screening, yet a systematic comparison of modern object detection architectures on nationally representative datasets remains limited. This study presents a comprehensive quantitative comparison of prominent deep learning–based object detection architectures for Artificial Intelligence-assisted mammography analysis using the MammosighTR dataset, developed within the Turkish National Breast Cancer Screening Program. The dataset comprises… More >

Abstract Optimization problems are prevalent in various fields of science and engineering, with several real-world applications characterized by high dimensionality and complex search landscapes. Starfish optimization algorithm (SFOA) is a recently optimizer inspired by swarm intelligence, which is effective for numerical optimization, but it may encounter premature and local convergence for complex optimization problems. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the multi-strategy enhanced crested porcupine-starfish optimization algorithm (MCPSFOA). The core innovation of MCPSFOA lies in employing a hybrid strategy to improve SFOA, which integrates the exploratory mechanisms of SFOA with the diverse search capacity of… More >

Abstract Network-on-Chip (NoC) systems are progressively deployed in connecting massively parallel megacore systems in the new computing architecture. As a result, application mapping has become an important aspect of performance and scalability, as current trends require the distribution of computation across network nodes/points. In this paper, we survey a large number of mapping and scheduling techniques designed for NoC architectures. This time, we concentrated on 3D systems. We take a systematic literature review approach to analyze existing methods across static, dynamic, hybrid, and machine-learning-based approaches, alongside preliminary AI-based dynamic models in recent works. We classify them… More >

Abstract The present investigation inspects the unsteady, incompressible MHD-induced flow of a ternary hybrid nanofluid made of SiO2 (silicon dioxide), ZnO (zinc oxide), and MWCNT (multi-walled carbon nanotubes) suspended in a water-ethylene glycol base fluid between two perforated squeezing Riga plates. This problem is important because it helps us understand the complicated connections between magnetic fields, nanofluid dynamics, and heat transport, all of which are critical for designing thermal management systems. These findings are especially useful for improving the design of innovative cooling technologies in electronics, energy systems, and healthcare applications. No prior study has… More >

Abstract The rapid proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in critical healthcare infrastructure has introduced significant security and privacy challenges that demand innovative, distributed architectural solutions. This paper proposes FE-ACS (Fog-Edge Adaptive Cybersecurity System), a novel hierarchical security framework that intelligently distributes AI-powered anomaly detection algorithms across edge, fog, and cloud layers to optimize security efficacy, latency, and privacy. Our comprehensive evaluation demonstrates that FE-ACS achieves superior detection performance with an AUC-ROC of 0.985 and an F1-score of 0.923, while maintaining significantly lower end-to-end latency (18.7 ms) compared to cloud-centric (152.3 ms) and fog-only (34.5… More >

Abstract Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (WSSS), which relies only on image-level labels, has attracted significant attention for its cost-effectiveness and scalability. Existing methods mainly enhance inter-class distinctions and employ data augmentation to mitigate semantic ambiguity and reduce spurious activations. However, they often neglect the complex contextual dependencies among image patches, resulting in incomplete local representations and limited segmentation accuracy. To address these issues, we propose the Context Patch Fusion with Class Token Enhancement (CPF-CTE) framework, which exploits contextual relations among patches to enrich feature representations and improve segmentation. At its core, the Contextual-Fusion Bidirectional Long Short-Term More >

Abstract Multivariate anomaly detection plays a critical role in maintaining the stable operation of information systems. However, in existing research, multivariate data are often influenced by various factors during the data collection process, resulting in temporal misalignment or displacement. Due to these factors, the node representations carry substantial noise, which reduces the adaptability of the multivariate coupled network structure and subsequently degrades anomaly detection performance. Accordingly, this study proposes a novel multivariate anomaly detection model grounded in graph structure learning. Firstly, a recommendation strategy is employed to identify strongly coupled variable pairs, which are then used More >

Abstract Unbonded post-tensioned (PT) concrete systems are widely used in safety-critical structures, yet modeling practices for prestress implementation and tendon-concrete interaction remain inconsistent. This study investigates the effects of sheath (duct) implementation and confinement assumptions through nonlinear finite element analysis. Four modeling cases were defined, consisting of an explicit sheath without tendon-concrete confinement (S) and three no-sheath variants with different confinement levels (X, N, A). One-way beams and two-way panels were analyzed, and panel blast responses were validated against experimental results. In both beams and panels, average initial stress levels were similar across models, through local More >

Abstract Patient-specific finite element analysis (FEA) is a promising tool for noninvasive quantification of cardiac and vascular structural mechanics in vivo. However, inverse material property identification using FEA, which requires iteratively solving nonlinear hyperelasticity problems, is computationally expensive which limits the ability to provide timely patient-specific insights to clinicians. In this study, we present an inverse material parameter identification strategy that integrates deep neural networks (DNNs) with FEA, namely inverse DNN-FEA. In this framework, a DNN encodes the spatial distribution of material parameters and effectively regularizes the inverse solution, which aims to reduce susceptibility to local optima… More >

Abstract Accurate prediction of concrete compressive strength is fundamental for optimizing mix designs, improving material utilization, and ensuring structural safety in modern construction. Traditional empirical methods often fail to capture the non-linear relationships among concrete constituents, especially with the growing use of supplementary cementitious materials and recycled aggregates. This study presents an integrated machine learning framework for concrete strength prediction, combining advanced regression models—namely CatBoost—with metaheuristic optimization algorithms, with a particular focus on the Somersaulting Spider Optimizer (SSO). A comprehensive dataset encompassing diverse mix proportions and material types was used to evaluate baseline machine learning models,… More >
