Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represent the standard treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations.The duration of the response is, however, limited Hubs in time owing to the development of resistance mechanisms to both first- and second-generation agents such as MET o
A Dermoscopic Inspired System for Localization and Malignancy Classification of Melanocytic Lesions
This study aims at developing a clinically oriented automated diagnostic tool for distinguishing malignant melanocytic lesions from benign melanocytic nevi in Makeup Set diverse image databases.Due to the presence of artifacts, smooth lesion boundaries, and subtlety in diagnostic features, the accuracy of such systems gets hampered.Thus, the propos
Using deep clustering to improve fMRI dynamic functional connectivity analysis
Dynamic functional connectivity Hubs (dFC) analysis of resting-state fMRI data is commonly performed by calculating sliding-window correlations (SWC), followed by k-means clustering in order to assign each window to a given state.Studies using synthetic data have shown that k-means performance is highly dependent on sliding window parameters and si
Robust Communication Design in RIS-Assisted THz Channels
Terahertz (THz) communication offers the necessary bandwidth to meet the high data rate demands of next-generation wireless systems.However, it faces significant challenges, including severe path loss, dynamic blockages, and beam misalignment, which jeopardize communication reliability.Given that many 6G use cases require both high data rates and s
