IFF-Net: Irregular Feature Fusion Network for Multimodal Remote Sensing Image Classification
Authors: Wang Huiqing , Wang Huajun , Wu Linfeng 
Published: June 2024

In recent years, classification and identification of Earth’s surface materials has been a challenging research topic in the field of earth science and remote sensing (RS). Although deep learning techniques have achieved some results in remote sensing image classification, there are still some challenges for multimodal remote sensing data classification, such as information redundancy between multimodal remote sensing images. In this paper, we propose a multimodal remote sensing data classification method IFF-Net based on irregular feature fusion, called IFF-Net. The IFF-Net architecture utilizes weight-shared residual blocks for feature extraction while maintaining the independent batch normalization (BN) layer. During the training phase, the redundancy of the current channel is determined by evaluating the judgement factor of the BN layer. If this judgment factor falls below a predefined threshold, it indicates that the current channel information is redundant and should be substituted with another channel. Sparse constraints are imposed on some of the judgment factors in order to remove extra channels and enhance generalization. Furthermore, a module for feature normalization and calibration has been devised to leverage the spatial interdependence of multimodal features in order to achieve improved discrimination. Two standard datasets are used in the experiments to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the IFF-NET method proposed in this paper exhibits significantly superior performance compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

Background/Objectives: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is characterized by pancreatic gland inflammation, and its clinical course ranges from mild to severe. Predicting the severity of AP early and reliably is important. In this study, we investigate the potential use of the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score as a prognostic marker in acute pancreatitis. Methods: We examined 336 patients who had been hospitalized with an AP diagnosis in the internal medicine clinic. The patients included in the study were followed up for 5 years. The study analyzed the specific variables of age, gender, and AP etiology as recorded biochemical parameters for all study participants and calculated the effects of age, sex, Bedside Index of Severity in AP (BISAP), the revised Atlanta classification, and the CONUT score on mortality. Results: When compared with surviving patients, non-surviving patients had higher scores for BISAP, CONUT, and the Atlanta Classification (p ˂ 0.001). In the non-surviving group, hemoglobin, lymphocyte, and albumin levels were significantly lower and creatinine, uric acid, and procalcitonin levels were significantly higher compared to the surviving group (p ˂ 0.001, 0.003, ˂0.001, ˂0.001, 0.005, ˂0.001, respectively). The multivariate analysis showed a significant association of mortality with age, CONUT, and BISAP scores (p ˂ 0.003, 0.001, 0.012 respectively). The CONUT score was separated into two groups based on the median value. The predicted survival time in the group with a CONUT score > 2 (53.8 months) was significantly lower than in the group with a CONUT score ≤ 2 (63.8 months). The cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was significantly higher in the patients with higher CONUT scores. Conclusions: This study has assigned the CONUT score as an independent risk factor for mortality in AP.
Research on Grain Futures Price Prediction Based on a Bi-DSConvLSTM-Attention Model

Published: June 2024

Grain is a commodity related to the livelihood of the nation’s people, and the volatility of its futures price affects risk management, investment decisions, and policy making. Therefore, it is very necessary to establish an accurate and efficient futures price prediction model. Aiming at improving the accuracy and efficiency of the prediction model, so as to support reasonable decision making, this paper proposes a Bi-DSConvLSTM-Attention model for grain futures price prediction, which is based on the combination of a bidirectional long short-term memory neural network (BiLSTM), a depthwise separable convolutional long short-term memory neural network (DSConvLSTM), and an attention mechanism. Firstly, the mutual information is used to evaluate, sort, and select the features for dimension reduction. Secondly, the lightweight depthwise separable convolution (DSConv) is introduced to replace the standard convolution (SConv) in ConvLSTM without sacrificing its performance. Then, the self-attention mechanism is adopted to improve the accuracy. Finally, taking the wheat futures price prediction as an example, the model is trained and its performance is evaluated. Under the Bi-DSConvLSTM-Attention model, the experimental results of selecting the most relevant 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 features as the inputs showed that the optimal number of features to be selected was 4. When the four best features were selected as the inputs, the RMSE, MAE, MAPE, and R2 of the prediction result of the Bi-DSConvLSTM-Attention model were 5.61, 3.63, 0.55, and 0.9984, respectively, which is a great improvement compared with the existing price-prediction models. Other experimental results demonstrated that the model also possesses a certain degree of generalization and is capable of obtaining positive returns.

BackgroundThe first 100 days after childbirth are important for women recovering from pregnancy and birth.AimTo describe the most common clinical events or health needs documented in women’s primary care records in the first 100 days after childbirth.Design and settingCross-sectional study using electronic health records from UK primary care data.MethodPrimary care records were examined from childbirth up to 100 days after childbirth for women aged 16–49 years who had given birth to a single live infant between 2006 and 2016 using IQVIA Medical Research Data. The most common clinical events or health needs based on documented symptoms, diagnoses, and medications were identified. How these varied by patient characteristic was explored.ResultsIn total, 925 712 contacts were identified during the 100 days following 309 573 births. Women were most likely to use primary care to have a postnatal visit or check (60.6%,n= 187 455), for monitoring (such as a blood pressure reading) (49.9%,n= 154 328), and to access contraception (49.7%,n= 153 876). Younger women were more likely to have contacts for preventive care compared with older women, but were less likely to have contacts for ongoing mental and physical symptoms or conditions and pre-existing conditions. The highest peak in contacts occurred 42 days after birth, and related to a postnatal check or visit, monitoring a patient, and recording lifestyle factors (such as smoking status).ConclusionPrimary care services should seek to match the needs of new mothers, taking account of a high volume of contacts, for a broad range of planned and responsive care following childbirth.

Reliability assessment of high-power GaN-HEMT devices with different buffers under influence of gate bias and high-temperature tests
Authors: Rathaur Shivendra K. , Hieu Le Trung , Dixit Abhisek , Chang Edward Yi 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This study compares Vth-instability in D-mode MIS-HEMT devices between two epitaxial layers, AlN/AlGaN/GaN superlattice-W1, and three-step graded AlGaN-W2. Experimental results demonstrate that W1 exhibits ∼13% less Vth-instability compared to W2, with distinct degradation regions at specific voltage ranges. With temperature variation (30 °C–150 °C), these regions are justified and revealed small positive Vth-shifts due to electron trapping, leading to temporary degradation, followed-by negative Vth-shifts from positive charge injection, culminating in catastrophic degradation attributing impact ionization at 30 °C during 0–30 V gate-step stress, with permanent failure observed. Analysis indicates W1-devices are more efficient and stable. Also, both layers operate reliably till VGS = 18 V, with ∼3% minor Vth instability.

Normativa Aplicable Respecto a la Prescripción de la Acción Monitoria
Authors: Díaz Salazar Giuliana Gabriela , Bravo Sisalima Alva Edilma , Buenaño Loja Richard Ivan 
Published: June 2024

El presente artículo investigativo aborda el análisis del Procedimiento Monitorio, el cual fue incluido en la legislación ecuatoriana, cuando entró en vigencia el Código Orgánico General de Procesos en el año 2016. La acción monitoria tiene como finalidad el cobro de deudas determinadas en dinero, líquida, exigible, de plazo vencido y con una cuantía limitada, mediante documentos que no se constituyen como títulos ejecutivos. Este procedimiento fue instaurado a fin de que se resuelva el conflicto de una manera ágil y eficaz evitando el retardo que se generaba mediante un juicio ordinario, el cual por su retardo no ofrecía seguridad jurídica y vulnera el principio procesal de la tutela judicial efectiva consagrada en la Constitución de la República del Ecuador. El procedimiento monitorio se distingue por ser especial abreviado, que permite el cobro de ciertas obligaciones. Sin embargo, no tiene una naturaleza jurídica propia; por lo que, al no existir una regla especial respecto de cómo operaría la prescripción, es necesario determinar cuál sería la norma general aplicable dentro de cada caso.
Deep Search for Phosphine in a Prestellar Core
Authors: Furuya Kenji , Shimonishi Takashi 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Understanding in which chemical forms phosphorus exists in star- and planet-forming regions and how phosphorus is delivered to planets are of great interest from the viewpoint of the origin of life on Earth. Phosphine (PH3) is thought to be a key species to understanding phosphorus chemistry, but never has been detected in star- and planet-forming regions. We performed sensitive observations of the ortho-PH3 10 − 00 transition (266.944 GHz) toward the low-mass prestellar core L1544 with the Atacama Compact Array stand-alone mode of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The line was not detected down to 3σ levels in 0.07 km s−1 channels of 18 mK. The nondetection provides the upper limit to the gas-phase PH3 abundance of 5 × 10−12 with respect to H2 in the central part of the core. Based on the gas-ice astrochemical modeling, we find the scaling relationship between the gas-phase PH3 abundance and the volatile (gas and ice with larger volatility than water) P elemental abundance for given physical conditions. This characteristic and well-constrained physical properties of L1544 allow us to constrain the upper limit to the volatile P elemental abundance of 5 × 10−9, which is a factor of 60 lower than the overall P abundance in the interstellar medium. Then the majority of P should exist in refractory forms. The volatile P elemental abundance of L1544 is smaller than that in the coma of comet 67P/C-G, implying that the conversion of refractory phosphorus to volatile phosphorus could have occurred along the trail from the presolar core to the protosolar disk through, e.g., sputtering by accretion/outflow shocks.
