Exploring data augmentation and active learning benefits in imbalanced datasets
(MDPI, 2024-06-19)Despite the increasing availability of vast amounts of data, the challenge of acquiring labeled data persists. This issue is particularly serious in supervised learning scenarios, where labeled data are essential for model ... -
Online child sexual exploitation and abuse of children and adolescents with disabilities: A systematic review
(MDPI, 2024-04-09)Online child sexual exploitation and abuse (OCSEA) is a rising global problem affecting children and adolescents worldwide. Despite the escalating prevalence of OCSEA, there is limited research specifically focusing on ... -
Optimizing antibiotic therapy for stenotrophomonas maltophilia infections in critically Ill patients: A pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic approach
(MDPI, 2024-06-13)Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic, multidrug-resistant non-fermentative Gram-negative bacillus, posing a significant challenge in clinical treatment due to its numerous intrinsic and acquired resistance ... -
Proposed detection limits for radioactivity concentrations in water in the decommissioning and dismantling of nuclear facilities
(MDPI, 2024-06-01)The Dismantling and Decommissioning (D&D) of nuclear facilities poses several challenges for radioactivity measurement laboratories involved in environmental radiation monitoring plans. One of them is the definition of the ... -
Recognizable languages of k-forcing automata
(MDPI, 2024-04-25)In this study, we show that automata theory is also a suitable tool for analyzing a more complex type of the k-forcing process. First, the definition of k-forcing automata is presented according to the definition of k-forcing ... -
Review of the brain’s behaviour after injury and disease for its application in an agent-based model (ABM)
(MDPI, 2024-06-14)The brain is the most complex organ in the human body and, as such, its study entails great challenges (methodological, theoretical, etc.). Nonetheless, there is a remarkable amount of studies about the consequences of ... -
Rule-based operation mode control strategy for the energy management of a fuel cell electric vehicle
(MDPI, 2024-06-19)Hydrogen, due to its high energy density, stands out as an energy storage method for the car industry in order to reduce the impact of the automotive sector on air pollution and global warming. The fuel cell electric vehicle ... -
Toward fully automated inspection of critical assets supported by autonomous mobile robots, vision sensors, and artificial intelligence
(MDPI, 2024-06-07)Robotic inspection is advancing in performance capabilities and is now being considered for industrial applications beyond laboratory experiments. As industries increasingly rely on complex machinery, pipelines, and ... -
Understanding Aβ peptide binding to lipid membranes: A biophysical perspective
(MDPI, 2024-06-10)Aβ peptides are known to bind neural plasma membranes in a process leading to the deposit of Aβ-enriched plaques. These extracellular structures are characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease, the major cause of late-age dementia. ...
