Abstract Purpose Phantoms are routinely used in molecular imaging to assess scanner performance.However, traditional phantoms with fillable shapes do not replicate human anatomy.3D-printed phantoms have overcome this by creating phantoms which replicate human anatomy which can be filled with radioactive material.The problem with these is that small

Time series landslide displacement is the most critical data set to understand landslide characteristics and infer its future development.To predict landslide displacements and their quantitative uncertainties, a mathematical description of the landslide evolution should be established.This paper proposes a novel hybrid machine-learning model to pr

The pervasive and often indiscriminate use of antibiotics has accelerated the emergence of drug-resistant bacterial strains, thus presenting an acute threat to global Microwave public health.Despite a growing acknowledgment of the severity of this crisis, the current suite of strategies to mitigate antimicrobial resistance remains markedly inadequa
