A Review of the Detection of Pulmonary Embolism from Computed Tomography Images Using Deep Learning Methods
subject: Computed tomography; Convolutional neural network; Deep learning; Pulmonary embolism
description: Medical imaging has been evolving at a steady pace generating enormous amounts of health data, and the use of deep learning (DL) has helped a great deal in processing the detailed data. Deep learning-based methods are used in different medical imaging tasks to detect and diagnose diseases. For example, medical imaging is used to diagnose pulmonary embolism (PE), a commonly occurring cardiovascular disease with high mortality and prevalence and a low diagnosis rate. According to medical experts, PE has resulted in many deaths because of missed diagnoses for the medical condition. Another critical aspect of the disease is the possibility of permanent lung damage if left untreated. The use of deep learning methods in medical imaging is attributed to their ability to use learning-based methods to process enormous amounts of data. However, there are some unique challenges in the detection of PE. PE is not specific in its clinical presentation and is easily ignored, making it difficult to diagnose. Deep learning-based detection methods help a great deal in the disease detection in miniature sub-branches of the alveoli, and images with noisy artifacts easily compared to manual diagnosis. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Humanising History through Graphic Narratives: Exploring Stories of Home and Displacement from the North-East of India
subject: Graphic Novels of North-East; Humanising Narratives
description: Literature from the North-East has responded to national, global and local issues, including questions on immigration and ethnic violence. They have resisted the colonial framework of representation and have invoked a sense of cultural and ethnic particularity (Sarma, 2013). This literature has adopted a multilingual register to respond to 1) patriarchal and 2) ethnonationalist discourses that have a forced and overbearing presence in the everyday lives of people and their stories. These writings evoke an ethno-critical approach that engages otherness and difference in such a way as to provoke an interrogation of and a challenge to our familiar realms of experience and is consistent with a recognition and legitimation of heterogeneity (Sarma, 2013). Select stories from First Hand (Volume II, 2018) - The Lonely Courtyard (2018), My Name is Jahanara (2018), and A Market Story (2019) by Kumdo Yumnam provide the heterogeneity that is characteristic of the works of literature emerging from the North-East, thereby resisting the homogeneity often indicative of the term 'North-East'. The analysis will explore how the selected texts negotiate textuality and visuality in a specific manner to present an archive of everyday life that humanises history. 2022 Aesthetics Media Services.

Efficient chemical fixation of CO2from direct air under environment-friendly co-catalyst and solvent-free ambient conditions
description: The capture and conversion of CO2from direct air into value-added products under mild conditions represents a promising step towards environmental remediation and energy sustainability. Consequently, herein, we report the first example of a Mg(ii)-based MOF exhibiting highly efficient fixation of CO2from direct air into value-added cyclic carbonates under eco-friendly co-catalyst and solvent-free mild conditions. The bifunctional MOF catalyst was rationally constructed by utilizing an eco-friendly Lewis acidic metal ion, Mg(ii), and a nitrogen-rich tripodal linker, TATAB. The MOF possesses a high BET surface area of 2606.13 m2g?1and highly polar 1D channels decorated with a high density of CO2-philic sites which promote a remarkably high CO2uptake of 50.2 wt% at 273 K with a high heat of adsorption value of 55.13 kJ mol?1. The high CO2-affinity combined with the presence of a high density of nucleophilic and Lewis acidic sites conferred efficient catalytic properties to the Mg-MOF for chemical fixation of CO2from direct air under environment-friendly mild conditions. The remarkable performance of the Mg-MOF for the fixation of CO2from direct air was further supported by in-depth theoretical calculations. Moreover, the computational studies provided an insight into the mechanistic details of the catalytic process in the absence of any co-catalyst and solvent. Overall, this work represents a rare demonstration of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) from direct air under eco-friendly mild conditions. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2021.

Engineering the functionality of porous organic polymers (POPs) for metal/cocatalyst-free CO2 fixation at atmospheric conditions
subject: Atmospheric pressure; CO2 utilization; Cyclic carbonates; Metal/Co-catalyst-free fixation; Porous Organic Polymer (POP)
description: Carbon dioxide (CO2) utilization as C1 feedstock under metal/co-catalyst-free conditions facilitates the development of eco-friendly routes for mitigating atmospheric CO2 concentration and producing value-added compounds. In this regard, herein, we designed a bifunctional porous organic polymer (POP-1) by incorporating acidic (-CONH) and CO2-philic (-NH/N) sites by judicious choice of organic precursors. Indeed, POP-1 exhibits high heat of interaction for CO2 (40.2 kJ/mol) and excellent catalytic performance for transforming carbon dioxide to cyclic carbonates, a high-value commodity chemical with high selectivity and yield under metal/cocatalyst/solvent-free atmospheric pressure conditions. Interestingly, an analogous polymer (POP-2) that lacks basic (-NH/N) sites showed lower CO2 interaction energy (31.6 kJ/mol) and catalytic activity than that of POP-1. The theoretical studies further supported the superior catalytic activity of POP-1 in the absence of Lewis acidic metal and cocatalyst. Notably, POP-1 showed excellent reusability with retention of catalytic performance for multiple cycles of usage. Overall, this work presents a novel approach to metal/cocatalyst/solvent-free utilization of CO2 under eco-friendly atmospheric pressure conditions. 2024 Elsevier Ltd

Fractional and memory effects on wave reflection in pre-stressed microstructured solids with dual porosity
subject: Dual porosity; Fractional-order derivative; Memory-dependent derivative; Microstructure; Nonlocal elasticity; Plane waves
description: The present work investigates the influence of fractional-order derivative and memory-dependent derivative on the behavior of various waves reflected at the free surface of a size-dependent, pre-stressed, microstructured thermoelastic solid with a dual porosity framework. A generalized MooreGibsonThomson (MGT) model, incorporating higher-order terms and memory effects, is adopted to describe the complex heat transfer behavior within the material. A nonlocal framework based on Eringen's theory is utilized to derive the basic relations of the considered medium. An examination of the non-dimensionalized governing equations is conducted employing the normal mode technique to provide accurate solutions. The research demonstrates the presence of six separate wave modes that travel at varying speeds within the medium. The energy and amplitude ratios of reflected waves are determined by applying suitable boundary conditions. The influence of varying incidence angles on the reflected wave energy distribution is investigated numerically and visualized using MATLAB software. The study reveals that the energy ratios of the reflected waves are sensitive to the fractional-order parameter, kernel functions, initial stress, and nonlocality parameter. The analysis suggests a conservative reflection process, indicating minimal energy loss during reflection. Key findings and their implications for relevant scenarios are presented in the conclusion. Comparisons with existing models for certain cases demonstrate good agreement, supporting the validity of the present model. 2025 Elsevier Masson SAS

Web Platforms for Fintech Products
subject: Digital; Fintech; Internet; Web
description: Internet marketing and digital marketing are not synonymous in the minds of the majority of the population, yet this may not be true. Given the rise in popularity of digital marketing as a marketing tactic, it is critical to comprehend the distinctions between the two methods. Even while it should be evident that they might be connected, there is very little difference between them. Internet marketing is merely a subclass of digital marketing, as well as the extent of digital marketing encompasses much more than internet marketing. This paper discussed digital marketing technologies, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of employing digital marketing and digital finance tools in general. In order to remain competitive, businesses must overcome obstacles and seize possibilities presented by digital marketing technologies. Lastly, it's critical to prioritise digital marketing and make use of digital finance techniques in order to maintain a good performance without wasting time or money. 2022 IEEE.

Recent Progress on the Development of Chemosensors
subject: Chemosensors; CO2; Detection; Fluorescence; Gases
description: Chemosensors are the chemical structures which convert chemical stimuli into responsive form that can be easily detected, such as change of colour, fluorescence, and other electronic signal. Recently, chemosensors development for detection and monitoring of gases has been growing interest due to the significant importance in environmental and biological systems. Subsequently, the development of chemosensors for detection of various gases is considered to be a significant goal in science and among the all gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) is a major public concern due to its role in global greenhouse warming with environmental pollution. Moreover, quite critical level of CO2 in the modern agricultural, food, environmental, oil and chemical industries is dangerous for living beings to survive such high concentration levels of CO2. Therefore, rapid and selective detection and monitoring of CO2 in the gaseous as well as in the liquid phases provides an incentive for development of new methods. The coverage of this book chapter is divided into different sections according to the use of different types of molecular backbones and the detection pathways.

Deprotection induced modulation of excited state intramolecular proton transfer for selective detection of perborate and ammonia
subject: Deprotection; Dip-stick method; ESIPT; Fluorescence; Naked-eye
description: Acetate protected Naphthalene Coupled Benzothiazole (NCB) has been designed and synthesized for selective detection of perborate (BO3) and ammonia (NH3) based on modulation of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process by chemodosimetric deacetylation pathway. In presence of nucleophilic species like BO3 and NH3, acetyl group deprotection of NCB resulted ESIPT within the molecule exhibiting a significant enhancement of absorption and emission signals at 425 nm and 472 nm respectively. The emission enhancement of NCB has been observed by 31-folds and 14-folds in presence of BO3 and NH3 respectively. The selectivity and fast sensitivity of NCB have been shown by the lower detection limit (1.32 M for BO3, 1.74 M for NH3 in UVvis study and 0.60 M for BO3 and 4.39 M for NH3 in fluorescence study) and fast response (rate constants: 12.36 s?1 and 5.54 s?1 for BO3 and NH3 respectively). Analytes induced deacetylation pathway of NCB followed by ESIPT has been clearly demonstrated by theoretical calculation. The test strips based on NCB with BO3 and NH3 are fabricated, which can act as a convenient and efficient test kits for both these analytes. In the practical applications, the sensor NCB can be utilized as low cost food spoilage indicator and soil analysis by fluorometric method. 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Vehicular Propagation Velocity Forecasting Using Open CV
subject: Computer Vision; Convolutional Neural Network; Machine Learning; Vehicle Speed Detection
description: This work presents a predictive learning driven methodology for recognizing the vehicular velocity. The developed model uses machine vision models to trace and detect vehicular movement in timely manner. It further deploys a machine tested framework for estimation of its velocity on basis of the accumulated information. The technique depends upon a CNN model that is validated with a standardized instances of vehicular scans and corresponding velocity parameters. The proposed model generates good efficiency and robustness in determining velocities across test conditions which encompass various kinds of vehicles and lighting scenarios. An optimal vehicular frequency is noted with heavy-weight vehicles in place in comparison to other vehicles. A mean latency period of 1.25 seconds and an error rate of 0.05 is observed with less road traffic in place. The suggested approach can be of great help in transportation systems, traffic monitoring and enhancing road safety. 2023 IEEE.

Wired Highways: The Soul of a Smarter City
description: The "smart city"concept emerged in the 1990s, characterized by extensive globalization, rapid technological advancement, and the emergence of the knowledge economy. Urban planning professionals began considering how to introduce digital technology into existing city infrastructure to create cities that were faster, efficient, sustainable, and better managed. Innovative thinking has moved away from traditional methods of city planning and management, and has started to challenge the planning systems where governments understood complexity from a bureaucratic perspective. In planning smart cities, local governments are largely relying on using information and communication technologies (ICT) to enhance essential city functions like transportation, energy, water, and public safety. Urbanization is becoming increasingly complex, and the global urban population is growing at unprecedented rates, creating a need of urban systems to be smarter, safer, and more environmentally sustainable. Cities are faced with many complex problems, but urban transportation is one of the most daunting. Existing infrastructure is becoming overwhelmed by congestion, increasing volume of traffic, and safety issues. An innovative way of tackling these problems is through Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). ITS is the use of ICT including sensors, software, communication networks, and data analytics in transportation systems to increase efficiency, safety, reliability, and sustainability. By using real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and data-driven decision-making, ITS creates traffic management systems that improve city response time, decreases congestion and accidents, and increases sustainable or environmental-friendly transport choices. This research recognizes the importance of ITS to smart city development, emphasizing. 2026 IEEE.

Mechanoluminescence of PolymerOrganic Composites under Strain and Hydrostatic Pressure
subject: DFT; energy generation; fluorescence; mechanoluminescence; underwater fluorescence
description: The development of underwater-based Internet of Things has drawn much attention to fluorescence sensors for crucial technological advancement. Therefore, the technologies for underwater mechanoluminescence (ML) sensing have created various applications for sensors and self-powered waterproof displays. However, developing single-molecule-based intrinsically adaptive materials capable of responding to multiple stimuli with high sensitivity remains a challenge. Herein, a flexible sensor based on the fluorescent ligand DHN was fabricated using a PVDF polymer matrix to form PVDH, enabling the exploration of external-stimuli-responsive fluorescence enhancement under mechanical strain and underwater pressure. For PVDH, the transition from crystalline to amorphous state by mechanical stimuli boosted its photoluminescence by ?75%, and stretching (strain ?16%) the sensor boosted its photoluminescence by ?145%, which is due to the formation of molecular aggregates in the amorphous state. Additionally, the increase in ML correlated with an output voltage of ?4 V of the fabricated device under mechanical stress. The in-depth density functional theory (DFT) calculations further support the experimental observation by studying the charge distribution and orbital overlapping in the DHN ligand. Furthermore, the film shows clear visualization when subject to underwater pressure and stable fluorescence upon exposure to different impurities. Therefore, this study reveals the use of fluorescence and mechanochromic properties of the ligand for designing advanced underwater sensors for visualization and communication. 2025 American Chemical Society

Exploring the potential of Andrographis paniculata for developing novel HDAC inhibitors: an in silico approach
subject: Cancer; computational biology; MD simulation; molecular docking; PCA
description: Cancer is one of the dreaded diseases of the twentieth century, emerging the major global causes of human morbidity. Cancer research in the last 15 years has provided unprecedented information on the role of epigenetics in cancer initiation and progression. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are recognized as important epigenetic markers in cancer, whose overexpression leads to increased metastasis and angiogenesis. In the current study, thirty-four (34) compounds from Andrographis paniculata were screened for the identification of potential candidate drugs, targeting three Class I HDACs (Histone deacetylases), namely HDAC1 (PDB id 5ICN), HDAC3 (PDB id 4A69) and HDAC8 (PDB id 5FCW) through computer-assisted drug discovery study. Results showed that some of the phytochemicals chosen for this study exhibited significant drug-like properties. In silico molecular docking study further revealed that out of 34 compounds, the flavonoid Andrographidine E had the highest binding affinities towards HDAC1 (?9.261 Kcal mol?1) and 3 (?9.554 Kcal mol?1) when compared with the control drug Givinostat (-8.789 and ?9.448 Kcal mol?1). The diterpenoid Andrographiside displayed the highest binding affinity (-9.588 Kcal mol?1) to HDAC8 compared to Givinostat (-8.947 Kcal mol?1). Statistical analysis using Principal Component Analysis tool revealed that all 34 phytocompounds could be clustered in four statistical groups. Most of them showed high or comparable inhibitory potentials towards HDAC target protein. Finally, the stability of top-ranked complexes (Andrographidine E-HDAC1 and HDAC3; Andrographiside-HDAC8) at the physiological condition was validated by Molecular Dynamic Simulation and MM-PBSA study.

A proposed framework for an appropriate governance system to develop smart cities in India
subject: cultural theory; executive; governance; legislative; smart city; special-purpose vehicles; stakeholder participation; urban local bodies
description: The Government of India has undertaken a novel step towards building new smart cities as well as transforming some of its existing cities into smart cities. However, tension relating to the governance of smart cities has emerged. Therefore, a mixed-methods approach was used based on a perception survey, case studies, and discussions with stakeholders and experts, to examine the current governance challenges in transforming existing cities into smart cities, and to explore various perspectives to propose a framework for an appropriate governance system for developing smart cities in India. The findings suggested that the current executive-led governance system, with special-purpose vehicles (SPVs) under the control of the state governments as the promoters of smart city development, might not lead to the smart governance system envisaged but, rather, add confusion and conflict, and undermine the constitutionally mandated, legislative-led urban local bodies. The argument in this article is for a people-centric, balanced governance approach with strengthened urban local bodies, enabled by advanced digital technology and the constructive participation of different social solidarities, in which the SPVs would act as the intellectual and executive wing of the urban local bodies. 2023 Regional Studies Association.
