Abstract The segmentation of head and neck (H&N) tumors in dual Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) imaging is a critical task in medical imaging, providing essential information for diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcome prediction. Motivated by the need for more accurate and robust segmentation methods, this study addresses key research gaps in the application of deep learning techniques to multimodal medical images. Specifically, it investigates the limitations of existing 2D and 3D models in capturing complex tumor structures and proposes an innovative 2.5D UNet Transformer model as a solution. The primary research questions guiding this study… More >

Abstract Printed circuit boards (PCBs) provide stable connections between electronic components. However, defective printed circuit boards may cause the entire equipment system to malfunction, resulting in incalculable losses. Therefore, it is crucial to detect defective printed circuit boards during the generation process. Traditional detection methods have low accuracy in detecting subtle defects in complex background environments. In order to improve the detection accuracy of surface defects on industrial printed circuit boards, this paper proposes a residual large kernel network based on YOLOv5 (You Only Look Once version 5) for PCBs surface defect detection, called YOLO-RLC (You… More >
