Background and objective Thyroid image segmentation is an indispensable part in computer-aided
diagnosis systems and medical image diagnoses of thyroid diseases. There have …

Large‐scale, substrate‐free graphene, with few‐layered sheets, is synthesized by the CVD
of methane over cobalt supported on magnesium oxides at 1000 C in a gas flow of argon. …

We report the microwave-induced electrophilic addition of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs)
with alkylhalides using Lewis acid as a catalyst followed by hydrolysis. The reaction …

The goal of this work is to develop a fast, compact, accurate, and robust neural network for
automatic thyroid gland segmentation in medical ultrasound images when the computational …

In recent years, convolutional neural networks have made remarkable achievements in
medical image segmentation. Unclear margins and fuzzy boundary regions are formed …

The isobutyronitryl groups from thermal decomposition of azobisisobutyronitrile in a 1,2-dichlorobenzene
solution were successfully attached to the sidewalls of single-walled carbon …

As the health issue is being concerned by more and more people, the workload of a clinical
doctor becomes larger. As there are many images to diagnose every day for a medical …

In this paper, we present a new macro model for traffic flow on a highway with ramps based
on the existing models. We use the new model to study the effects of on-off-ramp on the main …

Density functional theory calculations using ultrasoft pseudopotentials and the generalized
gradient approximation were performed to investigate the elastic, electronic and optical …
