Deep neural networks (DNNs) are highly susceptible to adversarial examples. By adding imperceptible perturbations to benign images, adversarial examples can mislead models into producing incorrect outputs, thereby posing significant security risks to DNN-based applications. However, most existing adversarial attack methods still achieve limited attack success rates. Focusing on black-box transfer attacks, we propose two novel approaches. First, TNI-FGSM aggregates gradients from the forward, backward, and current directions, enabling more stable updates and yielding more optimal perturbation directions. Second, NRSM initially performs random sampling on the input, followed by neighborhood resampling on both sides of the previous iteration's gradient. This process captures richer information, facilitates the discovery of optimal local extrema, and enhances transferability. Experiments conducted on ImageNet across conventional CNNs, four types of vision Transformers, and robust models demonstrate that NRSM consistently outperforms baseline methods. When Inception-v3 (Inc-v3) is used as the local model, NRSM achieves attack success rates (ASRs) that are 11.9% and 15.4% higher than LETM on Swin and HGD, respectively. Under the ensemble setting, NRSM attains an average ASR of 96.5%, surpassing Admix by 6.1%. Code is available at https://github.com/BreenoWH/NRSM-TNI.

One of the prevalent types of malignancy that affects women is called breast cancer. Early identification and treatment of cancer lessen the mortality rate. It is more common in women than men, which significantly increases the death rate of women. Prognosis and early identification are essential for ultimately increasing survival rates. The developed model is used to create effective techniques for detecting cancer in the women's at prior stage utilizing mammogram scans. The breast X-Ray images is also called as mammogram image. To recognize breast cancer from Mammogram images, an intelligent cancer framework is implemented using deep learning. The images needed for the classification process is collected from standard datasets. Next, the gathered images are provided to the segmented phase. Here, the segmentation is performed using a Weighted Adaptive Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (WAM-RCNN), where the weights are optimally tuned using the Enhanced Fennec Fox Optimization (EFFO) algorithm. The segmented outcomes are fed to Vision Transformer-based MobileNet with Long Short Term Memory (ViT-MobLSTM) for the “detection and classification of breast cancer.” Finally, the suggested model is correlated with numerous metrics to find the competence of the model. The validation result shows that the developed model outperforms with effective outcomes.

This paper focuses on data-driven fault detection for multi-agent systems subject to actuator faults. For fault detection, a quantized data-driven fault detection scheme is constructed by making full use of data quantization information, which can reduce the computational burden and overcome dependence on a precise system mathematical model. Moreover, the developed method has the fault detection capability, where each agent can detect faults in all other agents within the topology network. A simulation study is conducted in the final section to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Zeroing neural networks are widely applied in engineering fields. However, in practical scenarios, the problems they face often exhibit characteristics of uncertainty and fuzziness, and zeroing neural networks have obvious deficiencies in handling such uncertain problems. To address these deficiencies, researchers have combined zeroing neural networks with fuzzy systems. By leveraging the inherent advantages of fuzzy systems in dealing with uncertainty and fuzziness, this integration provides an effective way to expand the application scenarios of zeroing neural networks. This paper reviews the fusion and practical applications of two types of fuzzy systems (namely the Mamdani fuzzy system and the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy system) with zeroing neural networks, aiming to offer references for subsequent research in this direction.

Autonomous driving technology is rapidly advancing and expected to revolutionize the transportation industry shortly. Although much research on trajectory tracking tasks has been carried out, it is essential to study how to accomplish assigned tasks under the disturbance of noise, especially for periodic noise, which is inevitably generated by electrical or motor interference in scenarios involving electronic circuits. For example, the suspension system constantly compresses and rebounds as the road surface changes during vehicle operation, generating the periodic noise. This paper establishes a kinematic model for the controlled vehicle and formulates the control problem as an optimization task using model predictive control (MPC). Subsequently, a periodic noise-suppressed neural network (PNSNN) model is proposed based on ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to achieve vehicle control. It is worth pointing out that the PNSNN model considers periodic noise from the perspective of harmonic expansion, thus effectively eliminating its interference. In addition, convergence analyses are conducted on the PNSNN model both with and without periodic noise. Finally, simulations and experiments validate the effectiveness and stability of the proposed PNSNN model.

Lesion detection and segmentation are essential yet complex tasks in medical image analysis due to the substantial variability in lesion shape, size, contrast, and anatomical location across different organs. Existing deep learning methods often lack adaptability, as they are typically designed for specific organs or imaging modalities, leading to limited generalization when applied to diverse datasets. To address this limitation, this study introduces a unified and generalizable framework capable of accurate multi-organ lesion detection, localization, and segmentation across heterogeneous medical imaging data. The proposed U-VQVAE-CTLesionNet integrates a U-Net–based encoder–decoder architecture for spatial feature extraction with a Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoder (VQVAE) module that discretizes latent features through a learnable codebook, enabling the network to capture intricate texture and intensity variations while preserving structural consistency. A Bounding Box Regression (BBR) component is incorporated for lesion localization, followed by a GrabCut-based refinement step that iteratively adjusts lesion boundaries using Gaussian Mixture Model estimation and graph-cut optimization. The framework is further supported by a comprehensive preprocessing pipeline involving intensity normalization, Hounsfield Unit windowing, and affine transformations to standardize image quality and enhance model robustness across modalities. Comprehensive experiments conducted on multiple publicly available and locally curated datasets encompassing lung and kidney lesions validated the accuracy and stability of the proposed approach. For lung CT detection, the model achieved 98.8% accuracy, 98.0% precision, 97.03% recall, and a 97.51% F1-score, while kidney CT detection attained 99.1% accuracy, 99.0% precision, 98.8% recall, and a 98.9% F1-score. Segmentation performance yielded Dice coefficients of 96.5% for lung and 97.8% for kidney, with corresponding IoU values of 93.2% and 95.1%, and Hausdorff Distances of 2.8 mm for lung and 2.3 mm for kidney, respectively. Ablation studies further confirmed that the inclusion of preprocessing, quantization, BBR, and GrabCut modules improved segmentation accuracy by approximately 2%–3% compared to configurations without these components. These results demonstrate that U-VQVAE-CTLesionNet provides a robust, organ-agnostic framework for precise lesion analysis and establishes a solid foundation for future expert-assisted clinical integration.

This study develops an AI-enhanced smart classroom framework to overcome the limitations of traditional English translation instruction, particularly in addressing the theory-practice gap. We designed a three-phase intelligent teaching system incorporating Hidden Markov Models (HMM) for: (1) adaptive pre-class preparation, (2) immersive virtual translation scenarios, and (3) automated post-class assessment. A 6-week controlled experiment (N = 100) compared this approach with traditional instruction using quantitative metrics including engagement levels, translation accuracy, proficiency rates, and satisfaction surveys. The experimental group showed statistically significant improvements (p < 0.05): 12.7% higher engagement (d = 1.21), 8.3% better culture-specific translation accuracy, 6.9% faster proficiency attainment, and 89.2% satisfaction rate (vs. 82.1% control). HMM analysis effectively tracked learning progression and identified competency gaps. The study demonstrates HMM's effectiveness for modeling translation competence development and validates AI-enhanced instruction as a viable solution for translation education. The implemented framework offers a replicable model for intelligent language learning systems.

In traditional control methods, Series Elastic Actuator (SEA) joint manipulators are limited by their hardware and can only perform tasks with low stiffness requirements. To address this issue, we propose a stiffness adjustment control strategy for SEA manipulators based on Dynamic Systems (DS) with an adaptive stiffness control strategy, which could achieve higher manipulator end stiffness comprehensively considering the overall orientation of the manipulator and control gains. By incorporating a rotation matrix with the Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs) method, we enhanced the generalization capability of DS in complex tasks. Compared to traditional DS-based control strategies, the control strategy proposed in this paper has achieved better control effects in the experiments on the SEA manipulator, and adaptively adjusts the interaction stiffness under different postures to achieve the task goals. Furthermore, experiments on the mobile manipulator have also verified the universality of the control strategy proposed in this paper.

The exponential growth of online multimedia content across various platforms has created an urgent need for robust assistive technologies to manage the overwhelming volume of information. Consequently, considerable efforts have been dedicated to developing sophisticated multimedia recommendation systems, with Neural Collaborative Filtering (NCF) emerging as a prevalent methodology. However, the conventional NCF method exhibits significant limitations, particularly in integrating contextual data and effectively handling sparse and imbalanced datasets. To address these limitations, this research introduces the Contextual Neural Collaborative Filtering (C-NCF) method, which enhances the NCF framework by incorporating contextual data to enrich the learning process of user-item interactions. The primary objective of this method is to improve rating prediction accuracy, a crucial factor in generating more effective recommendations. A key innovation of the C-NCF method lies in its interaction mechanism, where user ratings of items are evaluated under diverse contextual conditions, assigning varying importance to each contextual factor. Extensive testing on three real-world datasets demonstrated that the C-NCF method outperforms existing advanced techniques. Empirical findings demonstrate that the C-NCF method achieved an average error reduction of 36.43% in Mean Absolute Error and 36.60% in Root Mean Squared Error compared to traditional collaborative filtering, matrix factorization, and context-aware models, significantly enhancing recommendation quality. These insights open promising avenues for further exploration in the field of context-aware recommender systems.
