Flexible Piezoresistive Yarn Pressure Sensor for Arterial Blood Pressure Waveform Measurement

The arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveform contains essential information concerning the hemodynamic status and its relation to the diagnosis of cardiovascular conditions. Therefore, the continuous monitoring of the ABP waveform has become important. A measurement system that offers a non-invasive approach and high accuracy in detecting morphological details of the ABP waveform is needed. In this study, we introduce a flexible piezoresistive yarn (FPY) pressure sensor for continuous non-invasive ABP waveform measurement. The sensor was experimentally validated using two scenarios: measurements on a hardware simulator and at an arterial site. The simulator measurement aimed to assess the sensor's performance in detecting consistent waveforms, while the arterial site measurements evaluated the sensor's performance in measuring ABP waveforms corresponding to the cardiovascular cycle. The simulator measurement results showed high repeatability, reproducibility, and accuracy relative to the reference signal at the upper limit of realistic force magnitude, as measured by the correlation metric: 0.9999 $\pm$ 0.0002, 0.9994 $\pm$ 0.0002, and 0.9731 $\pm$ 0.0027, respectively. The correlation value derived from measurements at the arterial site compared with measurements using a 3D force sensor as a reference sensor was 0.9880 $\pm$ 0.0035. Based on our results, the FPY pressure sensor can be used as an innovative solution for monitoring ABP waveforms and has further potential to be developed as a diagnostic device for evaluating cardiovascular conditions.

Corpus Augmentation for Sign Language Translation via LLM-Guided Video Stitching

Sign language translation (SLT) converts sign language video into spoken language text and holds significant promise for improving accessibility and enabling communication between signing and non-signing communities. While large weakly-aligned datasets have enabled pre-training at scale and gloss-free methods have reduced reliance on expert annotation, high-quality parallel sign video-text pairs for fine-tuning remain scarce, limiting generalisation on long-tail vocabulary and unseen constructions. We propose a corpus augmentation approach that requires no additional human annotation, external sign-language video corpora, or generative video models, relying only on the existing gloss-annotated training corpus and an LLM for sentence generation: per-gloss clips are extracted from training videos via CTC forced-alignment, novel gloss-sentence pairs are generated by a corpus-anchored LLM, and synthetic sequences are assembled through random sentence sampling and clip assignment. The resulting synthetic RGB video-text pairs are architecture-agnostic at the downstream training stage and can be consumed directly by RGB-based SLT models, or converted into pose or feature representations by pipelines that derive such inputs from video. Sincan et al. re-evaluated five recent gloss-free methods under strictly identical conditions; the largest verified gain over the GFSLT-VLP baseline was only 0.98 BLEU-4. Our augmentation, applied within the same framework, achieves +2.92 BLEU-4 without any change to architecture or training protocol. We further identify that synthetic data harms vision-language pretraining despite improving its objectives, and that optimising clip transitions for visual smoothness is counter-productive under L2-based criteria; we propose that abrupt boundaries may act as a form of implicit regularisation.

KAYRA: A Microservice Architecture for AI-Assisted Karyotyping with Cloud and On-Premise Deployment

We present KAYRA, an end-to-end karyotyping system that operates inside the operational constraints of a clinical cytogenetic laboratory. KAYRA is architected as a containerized microservice pipeline whose ML stack combines an EfficientNet-B5 + U-Net semantic segmenter, a Mask R-CNN (ResNet-50 + FPN) instance detector, and a ResNet-18 classifier, orchestrated through a cascaded ROI-narrowing strategy that focuses each downstream model on the chromosome-bearing region. The same container images are deployed both as a cloud service and as an on-premise installation, supporting clinical environments where patient-data egress is not permitted as well as those where it is. A pilot clinical evaluation against two commercial reference karyotyping systems on 459 chromosomes from 10 metaphase spreads shows segmentation accuracy of 98.91 % (vs. 78.21 % / 40.52 %), classification accuracy of 89.1 % (vs. 86.9 % / 54.5 %), and rotation accuracy of 89.76 % (vs. 94.55 % / 78.43 %). KAYRA improves over the older density-thresholding reference on all three axes (p < 0.0001 for segmentation and classification by Fisher's exact test on chromosome-level counts), and on segmentation also against the modern AI- supported reference (p < 0.0001); on classification the difference vs. the modern AI reference is not statistically significant at the present test-set size (p = 0.34). The system reaches TRL 6 maturity and integrates the human-in-the-loop expert-review workflow that diagnostic cytogenetic practice requires. The thesis of this paper is that a multi-model cytogenetic AI service can be packaged as a microservice architecture supporting flexible deployment - cloud-hosted or on-premise - while delivering strong empirical performance on a pilot clinical evaluation.

Flexible Piezoresistive Yarn Sensor for Human Physiological Signal Measurement

Continuous monitoring of physiological signals is essential for the early detection of health problems. A measurement system that ensures high sensitivity, accuracy, and user comfort is needed. In this study, we designed and optimized a flexible piezoresistive yarn (FPY) sensor to achieve a high sensitivity and wide working range for detecting physiological signals. The representative sensor design was constructed by applying an FPY bonding pattern, utilizing tightly arranged triangular patterns and using minimal FPY. The prototype sensor operates in two measurement modes, strain and pressure, and was evaluated for measuring neck motion, finger bending, respiratory signals, and arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveforms. A qualitative evaluation, performed by comparing the characteristics of the measurement results of each physiological signal with those from related studies, indicates a high similarity in its morphological characteristics. Then, a quantitative evaluation through baseline drift analysis demonstrates that the FPY sensor displays high measurement stability. The ABP waveform measurement shows the most stable baseline, with a mean absolute error (MAE) of $0.0051 \pm 0.0029$ in terms of baseline drift, using normalized values from 0 to 1. Based on our results, the prototype sensor can be used as an innovative solution for physiological signal monitoring and can be further enhanced for personalized healthcare and sports applications.

VReID-XFD: Video-based Person Re-identification at Extreme Far Distance Challenge Results

Person re-identification (ReID) across aerial and ground views at extreme far distances introduces a distinct operating regime where severe resolution degradation, extreme viewpoint changes, unstable motion cues, and clothing variation jointly undermine the appearance-based assumptions of existing ReID systems. To study this regime, we introduce VReID-XFD, a video-based benchmark and community challenge for extreme far-distance (XFD) aerial-to-ground person re-identification. VReID-XFD is derived from the DetReIDX dataset and comprises 371 identities, 11,288 tracklets, and 11.75 million frames, captured across altitudes from 5.8 m to 120 m, viewing angles from oblique (30 degrees) to nadir (90 degrees), and horizontal distances up to 120 m. The benchmark supports aerial-to-aerial, aerial-to-ground, and ground-to-aerial evaluation under strict identity-disjoint splits, with rich physical metadata. The VReID-XFD-25 Challenge attracted 10 teams with hundreds of submissions. Systematic analysis reveals monotonic performance degradation with altitude and distance, a universal disadvantage of nadir views, and a trade-off between peak performance and robustness. Even the best-performing SAS-PReID method achieves only 43.93 percent mAP in the aerial-to-ground setting. The dataset, annotations, and official evaluation protocols are publicly available at https://www.it.ubi.pt/DetReIDX/ .

Event-Based Simulation of Stochastic Memristive Devices for Neuromorphic Computing

In this paper, we build a general modelling framework for memristors, suitable for the simulation of event-based systems such as hardware spiking neural networks, and more generally, neuromorphic computing systems composed of three independent components: i) an event-based modelling approach, extending and generalising an existing general model of memristors - the Generalised Metastable Switch Model (GMSM) - eliminating errors associated with discrete time approximation, as well as offering potential improvements in terms of suitability for neuromorphic memristive system simulations; ii) a volatility state variable to allow for the unified understanding of disparate non-linear and volatile phenomena, including state relaxation, structural disruption, Joule heating, and non-linear drift in different memristive devices; and iii) a readout equation that separates the latent state variable evolution from explicit variables of interest such as an instantaneous resistance. We exhibit an illustrative implementation of this framework, fit to a resistive drift dataset for titanium dioxide memristors, based on a proposed linear conductance model for resistive drift in the devices. Finally, we highlight the application of the model to neuromorphic computing, through demonstrating the contribution of the volatility state variable to switching dynamics, resulting in frequency-dependent switching (for stable memristors acting as programmable synaptic weights) and the generation of action potentials (for unstable memristors, acting as spike-generators).

An Open Source Validation System for Continuous Arterial Blood Pressure Measuring Sensors

Measuring the blood pressure waveform is becoming a more frequently studied area. The development of sensor technologies opens many new ways to be able to measure high-quality signals. The development of such an aim-specific sensor can be time-consuming, expensive, and difficult to test or validate with known and consistent waveforms. In this paper, we present an open source blood pressure waveform simulator with an open source Python validation package to reduce development costs for early-stage sensor development and research. The simulator mainly consists of 3D printed parts which technology has become a widely available and cheap solution. The core part of the simulator is a 3D printed cam that can be generated based on real blood pressure waveforms. The validation framework can create a detailed comparison between the signal waveform used to design the cam and the measured time series from the sensor being validated. The presented simulator proved to be robust and accurate in short- and long-term use, as it produced the signal waveform consistently and accurately. To validate this solution, a 3D force sensor was used, which was proven earlier to be able to measure high-quality blood pressure waveforms on the radial artery at the wrist. The results showed high similarity between the measured and the nominal waveforms, meaning that comparing the normalized signals, the RMSE value ranged from $0.0276 \pm 0.0047$ to $0.0212 \pm 0.0023$, and the Pearson correlation ranged from $0.9933 \pm 0.0027$ to $0.9978 \pm 0.0005$. Our validation framework is available at https://github.com/repat8/cam-bpw-sim. Our hardware framework, which allows reproduction of the presented solution, is available at https://github.com/repat8/cam-bpw-sim-hardware. The entire design is an open source project and was developed using free software.

State Characterisation of Self-Directed Channel Memristive Devices

Knowing how to reliably use memristors as information storage devices is crucial not only to their role as emerging memories, but also for their application in neural network acceleration and as components of novel neuromorphic systems. In order to better understand the dynamics of information storage on memristors, it is essential to be able to characterise and measure their state. To this end, in this paper we propose a general, physics-inspired modelling approach for characterising the state of self-directed channel (SDC) memristors. Additionally, to enable the identification of the proposed state from device data, we introduce a noise-aware approach to the minimum-variance estimation of the state from voltage and current pairs.

Deep Anomaly Generation: An Image Translation Approach of Synthesizing Abnormal Banded Chromosome Images

Advances in deep-learning-based pipelines have led to breakthroughs in a variety of microscopy image diagnostics. However, a sufficiently big training data set is usually difficult to obtain due to high annotation costs. In the case of banded chromosome images, the creation of big enough libraries is difficult for multiple pathologies due to the rarity of certain genetic disorders. Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have proven to be effective in generating synthetic images and extending training data sets. In our work, we implement a conditional adversarial network that allows generation of realistic single chromosome images following user-defined banding patterns. To this end, an image-to-image translation approach based on self-generated 2D chromosome segmentation label maps is used. Our validation shows promising results when synthesizing chromosomes with seen as well as unseen banding patterns. We believe that this approach can be exploited for data augmentation of chromosome data sets with structural abnormalities. Therefore, the proposed method could help to tackle medical image analysis problems such as data simulation, segmentation, detection, or classification in the field of cytogenetics.
