MA-DLE: Speech-based Automatic Depression Level Estimation via Memory Augmentation

Speech-based automatic estimation of depression levels is essential for enabling early detection and timely intervention, particularly in resource-constrained mental health settings. In recent years, deep learning has demonstrated impressive success across various domains, including affective computing and mental health assessment. Most existing approaches rely on RNN-based architectures (such as LSTM and GRU) to model temporal information for depression estimation. However, the extracted features often emphasize only a few adjacent speech segments, limiting their ability to capture long-range dependencies. To overcome this limitation, we introduce a memory-based feature augmentation method that enhances the representational capacity of GRU-extracted features. Rather than indiscriminately incorporating historical data, our memory bank is designed to selectively integrate two types of components in order to reduce redundancy and irrelevance: (1) historical temporal features that closely resemble the current GRU output, offering complementary contextual information; and (2) dynamic memory features identified based on feature variability, which capture behavioral and emotional fluctuations indicative of depressive symptoms. To effectively fuse the memory-augmented features with GRU outputs, we further design a Hierarchical Attention Fusion (HAF) module. Our method is evaluated on the widely used DAIC-WOZ and E-DAIC datasets, achieving state-of-the-art performance.

AdaSFormer: Adaptive Serialized Transformers for Monocular Semantic Scene Completion from Indoor Environments

Indoor monocular semantic scene completion (MSSC) is notably more challenging than its outdoor counterpart due to complex spatial layouts and severe occlusions. While transformers are well suited for modeling global dependencies, their high memory cost and difficulty in reconstructing fine-grained details have limited their use in indoor MSSC. To address these limitations, we introduce AdaSFormer, a serialized transformer framework tailored for indoor MSSC. Our model features three key designs: (1) an Adaptive Serialized Transformer with learnable shifts that dynamically adjust receptive fields; (2) a Center-Relative Positional Encoding that captures spatial information richness; and (3) a Convolution-Modulated Layer Normalization that bridges heterogeneous representations between convolutional and transformer features. Extensive experiments on NYUv2 and Occ-ScanNet demonstrate that AdaSFormer achieves state-of-the-art performance. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/alanWXZ/AdaSFormer.

Monocular Semantic Scene Completion via Masked Recurrent Networks

Monocular Semantic Scene Completion (MSSC) aims to predict the voxel-wise occupancy and semantic category from a single-view RGB image. Existing methods adopt a single-stage framework that aims to simultaneously achieve visible region segmentation and occluded region hallucination, while also being affected by inaccurate depth estimation. Such methods often achieve suboptimal performance, especially in complex scenes. We propose a novel two-stage framework that decomposes MSSC into coarse MSSC followed by the Masked Recurrent Network. Specifically, we propose the Masked Sparse Gated Recurrent Unit (MS-GRU) which concentrates on the occupied regions by the proposed mask updating mechanism, and a sparse GRU design is proposed to reduce the computation cost. Additionally, we propose the distance attention projection to reduce projection errors by assigning different attention scores according to the distance to the observed surface. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed unified framework, MonoMRN, effectively supports both indoor and outdoor scenes and achieves state-of-the-art performance on the NYUv2 and SemanticKITTI datasets. Furthermore, we conduct robustness analysis under various disturbances, highlighting the role of the Masked Recurrent Network in enhancing the model's resilience to such challenges. The source code is publicly available.

An Intelligent Innovation Dataset on Scientific Research Outcomes

Various stakeholders, such as researchers, government agencies, businesses, and research laboratories require a large volume of reliable scientific research outcomes including research articles and patent data to support their work. These data are crucial for a variety of application, such as advancing scientific research, conducting business evaluations, and undertaking policy analysis. However, collecting such data is often a time-consuming and laborious task. Consequently, many users turn to using openly accessible data for their research. However, these existing open dataset releases typically suffer from lack of relationship between different data sources and a limited temporal coverage. To address this issue, we present a new open dataset, the Intelligent Innovation Dataset (IIDS), which comprises six interrelated datasets spanning nearly 120 years, encompassing paper information, paper citation relationships, patent details, patent legal statuses, and funding information. The extensive contextual and extensive temporal coverage of the IIDS dataset will provide researchers and practitioners and policy maker with comprehensive data support, enabling them to conduct in-depth scientific research and comprehensive data analyses.

An Empirical Study on the Fairness of Foundation Models for Multi-Organ Image Segmentation

The segmentation foundation model, e.g., Segment Anything Model (SAM), has attracted increasing interest in the medical image community. Early pioneering studies primarily concentrated on assessing and improving SAM's performance from the perspectives of overall accuracy and efficiency, yet little attention was given to the fairness considerations. This oversight raises questions about the potential for performance biases that could mirror those found in task-specific deep learning models like nnU-Net. In this paper, we explored the fairness dilemma concerning large segmentation foundation models. We prospectively curate a benchmark dataset of 3D MRI and CT scans of the organs including liver, kidney, spleen, lung and aorta from a total of 1056 healthy subjects with expert segmentations. Crucially, we document demographic details such as gender, age, and body mass index (BMI) for each subject to facilitate a nuanced fairness analysis. We test state-of-the-art foundation models for medical image segmentation, including the original SAM, medical SAM and SAT models, to evaluate segmentation efficacy across different demographic groups and identify disparities. Our comprehensive analysis, which accounts for various confounding factors, reveals significant fairness concerns within these foundational models. Moreover, our findings highlight not only disparities in overall segmentation metrics, such as the Dice Similarity Coefficient but also significant variations in the spatial distribution of segmentation errors, offering empirical evidence of the nuanced challenges in ensuring fairness in medical image segmentation.

A Comprehensive Review for MRF and CRF Approaches in Pathology Image Analysis

Pathology image analysis is an essential procedure for clinical diagnosis of many diseases. To boost the accuracy and objectivity of detection, nowadays, an increasing number of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system is proposed. Among these methods, random field models play an indispensable role in improving the analysis performance. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of pathology image analysis based on the markov random fields (MRFs) and conditional random fields (CRFs), which are two popular random field models. Firstly, we introduce the background of two random fields and pathology images. Secondly, we summarize the basic mathematical knowledge of MRFs and CRFs from modelling to optimization. Then, a thorough review of the recent research on the MRFs and CRFs of pathology images analysis is presented. Finally, we investigate the popular methodologies in the related works and discuss the method migration among CAD field.

A Hierarchical Conditional Random Field-based Attention Mechanism Approach for Gastric Histopathology Image Classification

In the Gastric Histopathology Image Classification (GHIC) tasks, which are usually weakly supervised learning missions, there is inevitably redundant information in the images. Therefore, designing networks that can focus on effective distinguishing features has become a popular research topic. In this paper, to accomplish the tasks of GHIC superiorly and to assist pathologists in clinical diagnosis, an intelligent Hierarchical Conditional Random Field based Attention Mechanism (HCRF-AM) model is proposed. The HCRF-AM model consists of an Attention Mechanism (AM) module and an Image Classification (IC) module. In the AM module, an HCRF model is built to extract attention regions. In the IC module, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model is trained with the attention regions selected and then an algorithm called Classification Probability-based Ensemble Learning is applied to obtain the image-level results from patch-level output of the CNN. In the experiment, a classification specificity of 96.67% is achieved on a gastric histopathology dataset with 700 images. Our HCRF-AM model demonstrates high classification performance and shows its effectiveness and future potential in the GHIC field.
