Abstract Objective: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients often experience significant fear of recurrence. To facilitate precise identification and appropriate management of this fear, this study aimed to compare the efficacy and accuracy of a Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) against logistic regression in modeling fear of cancer recurrence prediction. Methods: Data from 596 NSCLC patients, collected between September 2023 and December 2023 at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, were analyzed. Nine clinically and statistically significant variables, identified via univariate logistic regression, were inputted into both BPNN and logistic regression models developed… More >

Abstract As computer graphics technology continues to advance, Collision Detection (CD) has emerged as a critical element in fields such as virtual reality, computer graphics, and interactive simulations. CD is indispensable for ensuring the fidelity of physical interactions and the realism of virtual environments, particularly within complex scenarios like virtual assembly, where both high precision and real-time responsiveness are imperative. Despite ongoing developments, current CD techniques often fall short in meeting these stringent requirements, resulting in inefficiencies and inaccuracies that impede the overall performance of virtual assembly systems. To address these limitations, this study introduces a… More >

Abstract Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the most common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus and the main cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. Diagnostic biomarkers may allow early diagnosis and treatment of DN to reduce the prevalence and delay the development of DN. Kidney biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing DN; however, its invasive character is its primary limitation. The machine learning approach provides a non-invasive and specific criterion for diagnosing DN, although traditional machine learning algorithms need to be improved to enhance diagnostic performance. Methods: We applied high-throughput RNA sequencing to obtain the genes… More >
