Abstract In recent years, three-dimensional reconstruction technologies that employ multiple cameras have continued to evolve significantly, enabling remote collaboration among users in extended Reality (XR) environments. In addition, methods for deploying multiple cameras for motion capture of users (e.g., performers) are widely used in computer graphics. As the need to minimize and optimize the number of cameras grows to reduce costs, various technologies and research approaches focused on Optimal Camera Placement (OCP) are continually being proposed. However, as most existing studies assume homogeneous camera setups, there is a growing demand for studies on heterogeneous camera setups.… More >

Abstract Earthquakes are highly destructive spatio-temporal phenomena whose analysis is essential for disaster preparedness and risk mitigation. Modern seismological research produces vast volumes of heterogeneous data from seismic networks, satellite observations, and geospatial repositories, creating the need for scalable infrastructures capable of integrating and analyzing such data to support intelligent decision-making. Data warehousing technologies provide a robust foundation for this purpose; however, existing earthquake-oriented data warehouses remain limited, often relying on simplified schemas, domain-specific analytics, or cataloguing efforts. This paper presents the design and implementation of a spatio-temporal data warehouse for seismic activity. The framework integrates… More >

Abstract The existing 2D settlement monitoring systems for utility tunnels are heavily reliant on manual interpretation of deformation data and empirical prediction models. Consequently, early anomalies (e.g., minor cracks) are often misjudged, and warnings lag by about 24 h without automated spatial localization. This study establishes a technical framework for requirements analysis, architectural design, and data-integration protocols. Revit parametric modelling is used to build a 3D tunnel model with structural elements, pipelines and 18 monitoring points (for displacement and joint width). Custom Revit API code integrated real-time sensor data into the BIM platform via an automated… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), the task of story visualization, which transforms natural language narratives into coherent and consistent image sequences, has attracted growing research attention. However, existing methods still face limitations in balancing multi-frame character consistency and generation efficiency, which restricts their feasibility for large-scale practical applications. To address this issue, this study proposes a modular cloud-based distributed system built on Stable Diffusion. By separating the character generation and story generation processes, and integrating multi-feature control techniques, a caching mechanism, and an asynchronous task queue architecture, the system enhances generation… More >

Abstract Many bioinformatics applications require determining the class of a newly sequenced Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence, making DNA sequence classification an integral step in performing bioinformatics analysis, where large biomedical datasets are transformed into valuable knowledge. Existing methods rely on a feature extraction step and suffer from high computational time requirements. In contrast, newer approaches leveraging deep learning have shown significant promise in enhancing accuracy and efficiency. In this paper, we investigate the performance of various deep learning architectures: Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), CNN-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM), CNN-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-BiLSTM), Residual Network (ResNet), and… More >

Abstract In a world driven by unwavering moral principles rooted in ethics, the widespread exploitation of human beings stands universally condemned as abhorrent and intolerable. Traditional methods employed to identify, prevent, and seek justice for human trafficking have demonstrated limited effectiveness, leaving us confronted with harrowing instances of innocent children robbed of their childhood, women enduring unspeakable humiliation and sexual exploitation, and men trapped in servitude by unscrupulous oppressors on foreign shores. This paper focuses on human trafficking and introduces intelligent technologies including graph database solutions for deciphering unstructured relationships and entity nodes, enabling the comprehensive More >

Abstract The development of generative architectures has resulted in numerous novel deep-learning models that generate images using text inputs. However, humans naturally use speech for visualization prompts. Therefore, this paper proposes an architecture that integrates speech prompts as input to image-generation Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) model, leveraging Speech-to-Text translation along with the CLIP + VQGAN model. The proposed method involves translating speech prompts into text, which is then used by the Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) + Vector Quantized Generative Adversarial Network (VQGAN) model to generate images. This paper outlines the steps required to implement such a… More >

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a significant challenge in modern healthcare, with early detection and accurate staging remaining critical priorities for effective intervention. While Deep Learning (DL) approaches have shown promise in AD diagnosis, existing methods often struggle with the issues of precision, interpretability, and class imbalance. This study presents a novel framework that integrates DL with several eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) techniques, in particular attention mechanisms, Gradient-Weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM), and Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME), to improve both model interpretability and feature selection. The study evaluates four different DL architectures (ResMLP, VGG16, Xception, More >

Abstract In modern engineering, enhancing boiling heat transfer efficiency is crucial for optimizing energy use and several industrial processes involving different types of materials. This study explores the enhancement of pool boiling heat transfer potentially induced by combining perforated copper particles on a heated surface with a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactant in saturated deionized water. Experiments were conducted at standard atmospheric pressure, with heat flux ranging from 20 to 100 kW/m². The heating surface, positioned below the layer of freely moving copper beads, allowed the particle layer to shift due to liquid convection and steam More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract This study investigates the application of Learnable Memory Vision Transformers (LMViT) for detecting metal surface flaws, comparing their performance with traditional CNNs, specifically ResNet18 and ResNet50, as well as other transformer-based models including Token to Token ViT, ViT without memory, and Parallel ViT. Leveraging a widely-used steel surface defect dataset, the research applies data augmentation and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) to enhance feature extraction and understanding. These techniques mitigated overfitting, stabilized training, and improved generalization capabilities. The LMViT model achieved a test accuracy of 97.22%, significantly outperforming ResNet18 (88.89%) and ResNet50 (88.90%), as well… More >
