A Reference-Based Protocol for Assessing Image Displacement and Scale Stability

We present a reference-based protocol for assessing image stability, illustrated with a passive lens support. Pre/post-event wall references separate image-centre displacement from scale change. All 70 trials were retained: 30 baseline and 40 supported, acquired sequentially. Displacement (p = 0.597) and scale spread (p = 0.356) showed no significant difference. Lower median absolute scale deviation in the supported run persisted with scene-only processing, but its cause remains unresolved. Marker-estimation eligibility differed completely between runs for an unknown reason. The contribution is a workflow that reports completerun variability, typical deviations and estimator coverage together; the case study does not establish support efficacy, equivalence or transient damping.

Artefact-Aware Fungal Detection in Dermatophytosis: A Real-Time Transformer-Based Approach for KOH Microscopy

Dermatophytosis is commonly assessed using potassium hydroxide (KOH) microscopy, yet accurate recognition of fungal hyphae is hindered by artefacts, heterogeneous keratin clearance, and notable inter-observer variability. This study presents a transformer-based detection framework using the RT-DETR model architecture to achieve precise, query-driven localization of fungal structures in high-resolution KOH images. A dataset of 2,540 routinely acquired microscopy images was manually annotated using a multi-class strategy to explicitly distinguish fungal elements from confounding artefacts. The model was trained with morphology-preserving augmentations to maintain the structural integrity of thin hyphae. Evaluation on an independent test set demonstrated robust object-level performance, with a recall of 0.9737, precision of 0.8043, and an AP@0.50 of 93.56%. When aggregated for image-level diagnosis, the model achieved 100% sensitivity and 98.8% accuracy, correctly identifying all positive cases without missing a single diagnosis. Qualitative outputs confirmed the robust localization of low-contrast hyphae even in artefact-rich fields. These results highlight that an artificial intelligence (AI) system can serve as a highly reliable, automated screening tool, effectively bridging the gap between image-level analysis and clinical decision-making in dermatomycology.

An ensemble deep learning approach to detect tumors on Mohs micrographic surgery slides

Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is the gold standard technique for removing high risk nonmelanoma skin cancer however, intraoperative histopathological examination demands significant time, effort, and professionality. The objective of this study is to develop a deep learning model to detect basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and artifacts on Mohs slides. A total of 731 Mohs slides from 51 patients with BCCs were used in this study, with 91 containing tumor and 640 without tumor which was defined as non-tumor. The dataset was employed to train U-Net based models that segment tumor and non-tumor regions on the slides. The segmented patches were classified as tumor, or non-tumor to produce predictions for whole slide images (WSIs). For the segmentation phase, the deep learning model success was measured using a Dice score with 0.70 and 0.67 value, area under the curve (AUC) score with 0.98 and 0.96 for tumor and non-tumor, respectively. For the tumor classification, an AUC of 0.98 for patch-based detection, and AUC of 0.91 for slide-based detection was obtained on the test dataset. We present an AI system that can detect tumors and non-tumors in Mohs slides with high success. Deep learning can aid Mohs surgeons and dermatopathologists in making more accurate decisions.

Super-Resolution for Interferometric Imaging: Model Comparisons and Performance Analysis

This study investigates the application of Super-Resolution techniques in holographic microscopy to enhance quantitative phase imaging. An off-axis Mach-Zehnder interferometric setup was employed to capture interferograms. The study evaluates two Super-Resolution models, RCAN and Real-ESRGAN, for their effectiveness in reconstructing high-resolution interferograms from a microparticle-based dataset. The models were assessed using two primary approaches: image-based analysis for structural detail enhancement and morphological evaluation for maintaining sample integrity and phase map accuracy. The results demonstrate that RCAN achieves superior numerical precision, making it ideal for applications requiring highly accurate phase map reconstruction, while Real-ESRGAN enhances visual quality and structural coherence, making it suitable for visualization-focused applications. This study highlights the potential of Super-Resolution models in overcoming diffraction-imposed resolution limitations in holographic microscopy, opening the way for improved imaging techniques in biomedical diagnostics, materials science, and other high-precision fields.

Design of a System for Analyzing Cell Mechanics

Accurately measuring cell stiffness is challenging due to the invasiveness of traditional methods like atomic force microscopy (AFM) and optical stretching. We introduce a non-invasive off-axis system using holographic imaging and acoustic stimulation. This system features an off-axis Mach-Zehnder interferometer and bulk acoustic waves to capture cell mechanics. It employs high-resolution components to create detailed interferograms and allows continuous imaging of cell deformation. Unlike conventional techniques, our method provides high-throughput, label-free measurements while preserving cell integrity. Polyacrylamide beads are tested for high precision, highlighting the potential of the system in early cancer detection, disease monitoring, and mechanobiological research.

Biomechanical Analysis Of Breast Cancer Cells: A Comparative Study Of Invasive And Non-Invasive Cell Lines Using Digital Holographic Microscopy

This study investigates the biomechanical properties of breast cancer cells, focusing on the invasive MDA-MB-231 and non-invasive MCF-7 cell lines, using phase-shifting digital holographic microscopy and an acousto-holographic system for non-invasive strain measurement. Findings reveal higher strain values in MDA-MB-231 cells, indicative of their aggressive, metastatic nature, compared to lower strain values in MCF-7 cells. This variance in mechanical properties, potentially linked to distinct metabolic states and responses to external stimuli, underscores the role of cellular mechanics in cancer progression. The study advances understanding of breast cancer cell mechanics, highlighting biomechanical analysis as a crucial tool in cancer research and potential therapeutic interventions.

Impact of velocity and impact angle on football shot accuracy during fundamental trainings

The purpose of this research is to create a machine learning-based smart coaching approach for football that can replace manual analysis with real-time feedback for trainers. In-depth analysis of football player data by humans is time-consuming, error-prone, and requires a lot of effort. This exploratory study demonstrates the feasibility of using a machine learning algorithm to enhance the effectiveness of player monitoring and training. The suggested approach uses machine learning to generate analytical insights and enable long-term monitoring of player performance. In the future, machine learning could use this technique to offer constructive criticism of football players. The system incorporates a homemade ball-throwing mechanism capable of launching the ball in a variety of directions and at varying velocities. The ball kicker is equipped with a gyroscope and accelerometer sensors for measuring velocity and acceleration. The gathered data is filtered initially, and then the data that has been processed is fed into the machine-learning algorithm. The algorithm will be trained on player performance data and will be able to provide real-time feedback to coaches on player performance and potential areas for improvement. Additionally, the system will be able to track player progress over time and provide coaches with a comprehensive view of player development. The ultimate goal is to improve player performance and reduce the workload for coaches by automating the analysis process.

Study on the Concept and Development of a Mobile Incubator

Creating the best possible conditions is essential for proper cell growth. Incubators, a type of biotechnological instrument, are used to simulate this condition and maintain the cells within them. The processes involved in creating a mobile incubator, which are essential for monitoring a cell culture's physiological parameters, are outlined in this article. The goal is to keep image-taking during cell development from compromising data accuracy. The cell culture is prone to contamination once it has been removed from the incubation environment for further monitoring. The proposed approach allows for on-the-go monitoring of the cell culture. Moreover, it enables constant monitoring.

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Onychomycosis Detection

The diagnosis of superficial fungal infections in dermatology is still mostly based on manual direct microscopic examination with Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) solution. However, this method can be time consuming and its diagnostic accuracy rates vary widely depending on the clinician's experience. With the increase of neural network applications in the field of clinical microscopy, it is now possible to automate such manual processes increasing both efficiency and accuracy. This study presents a deep neural network structure that enables the rapid solutions for these problems and can perform automatic fungi detection in grayscale images without dyes. 160 microscopic field photographs containing the fungal element, obtained from patients with onychomycosis, and 297 microscopic field photographs containing dissolved keratin obtained from normal nails were collected. Smaller patches containing 4234 fungi and 4981 keratin were extracted from these images. In order to detect fungus and keratin, VGG16 and InceptionV3 models were developed. The VGG16 model had 95.98% accuracy, and the area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.9930, while the InceptionV3 model had 95.90% accuracy and the AUC value of 0.9917. However, average accuracy and AUC value of clinicians is 72.8% and 0.87, respectively. This deep learning model allows the development of an automated system that can detect fungi within microscopic images.

The Effect of Pore Structure in Flapping Wings on Flight Performance

This study investigates the effects of porosity on flying creatures such as dragonflies, moths, hummingbirds, etc. wing and shows that pores can affect wing performance. These studies were performed by 3D porous flapping wing flow analyses on Comsol Multiphysics. In this study, we analyzed different numbers of the porous wing at different angles of inclination in order to see the effect of pores on lift and drag forces. To compare the results 9 different analyses were performed. In these analyses, airflow velocity was taken as 5 m/s, angle of attack as 5 degrees, frequency as 25 Hz, and flapping angle as 30 degrees. By keeping these values constant, the number of pores was changed to 36, 48, and 60, and the pore angles of inclination to 60, 70, and 80 degrees. Analyses were carried out by giving laminar flow to this wing designed in the Comsol Multiphysics program. The importance of pores was investigated by comparing the results of these analyses.

Holographic Cell Stiffness Mapping Using Acoustic Stimulation

Accurate assessment of stiffness distribution is essential due to the critical role of single cell mechanobiology in the regulation of many vital cellular processes such as proliferation, adhesion, migration, and motility. Cell stiffness is one of the fundamental mechanical properties of the cell and is greatly affected by the intracellular tensional forces, cytoskeletal prestress, and cytoskeleton structure. Herein, we propose a novel holographic single-cell stiffness measurement technique that can obtain the stiffness distribution over a cell membrane at high resolution and in real-time. The proposed imaging method coupled with acoustic signals allows us to assess the cell stiffness distribution with a low error margin and label-free manner. We demonstrate the proposed technique on HCT116 (Human Colorectal Carcinoma) cells and CTC-mimicked HCT116 cells by induction with transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-\b{eta}). Validation studies of the proposed approach were carried out on certified polystyrene microbeads with known stiffness levels. Its performance was evaluated in comparison with the AFM results obtained for the relevant cells. When the experimental results were examined, the proposed methodology shows utmost performance over average cell stiffness values for HCT116, and CTC-mimicked HCT116 cells were found as 1.08 kPa, and 0.88 kPa, respectively. The results confirm that CTC-mimicked HCT116 cells lose their adhesion ability to enter the vascular circulation and metastasize. They also exhibit a softer stiffness profile compared to adherent forms of the cancer cells. Hence, the proposed technique is a significant, reliable, and faster alternative for in-vitro cell stiffness characterization tools. It can be utilized for various applications where single-cell analysis is required, such as disease modeling, drug testing, diagnostics, and many more.

In the second study, a deep learning model based on Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) is used for the same dataset. Accordingly, accuracies of 99% and 93% are obtained for the training and the test dataset, respectively. In this model, it takes 50 epochs to have these accuracies within 20 minutes of computational time.
