Person-independent and cross-dataset evaluation of convolutional and recurrent architectures for eye movement classification

Abstract Classifying eye movements into fixations, saccades, and smooth pursuits is a basic step in the analysis of gaze recordings. Deep models are now common for this task, but they are often evaluated on windows that share participants between training and test sets, which lea...

The reliability of an artificial intelligence tool, ‘Decision Trees’, in emergency medicine triage

Abstract Purpose: Emergency department (ED) overcrowding is a significant challenge worldwide. Triage systems categorize patients according to the urgency of their clinical conditions to ensure patient safety and minimize the risk of clinical errors. The aim of this study was to...

Assessment of circulating xenin as a potential metabolic biomarker in active smokers

Abstract Objectives Xenin regulates appetite, motility, and metabolic homeostasis. As the link between smoking and xenin has not yet been sufficiently investigated, this study compared serum levels between smokers and non-smokers and evaluated their associations with metabolic, h...

Institutional quality and the fiscal reaction to debt: nonlinear evidence from advanced and emerging market economies

Purpose The purpose of this study is to revisit the dynamic and nonlinear association of institutional quality with debt sustainability in a sample of 75 advanced and emerging market economies through the lens of fiscal reaction function (FRF). Design/methodology/approach In doin...

Multi‐Objective RSM Optimization of Emission and Performance Characteristics in a Diesel Engine Fueled With BaTiO 3 Nano‐Enhanced Jojoba Biodiesel

ABSTRACT The increasing demand for transportation decarbonization, rising fossil fuel prices, and concerns over the finite availability of conventional energy resources, have intensified the search for sustainable alternatives to petroleum‐derived fuels. Biofuels have emerged as...

Effect of 3200 MHz Radiofrequency Fields on MCF-7 and L929 Cell Lines

Objective: The use of technological devices emitting radio frequency fields(RFF) is increasing day by day. Nowadays, low-frequency RFF has begun to be used in cancer treatment as a non-invasive method. However, the time-dependent effects of high-frequency RFF on healthy and cance...

A data-driven FMEA framework integrating median aggregation, entropy weighting and jenks classification for marine gas turbine risk assessment

This study develops a data-driven FMEA framework for marine gas turbine risk assessment using 48 failure modes grouped under four subsystems. Expert ratings are collected on bounded 1–10 occurrence (O), severity (S), and detection (D) scales and aggregated by the median as a robu...

Recent Advances in Nanoparticle-Based Biosensors for Campylobacter jejuni Detection in Foods: Mechanisms, Designs, and Applications

Campylobacter jejuni, which is mostly transmitted through poultry products, is one of the most common bacterial causes of foodborne illness worldwide. Its low infectious dose and complex chicken matrices make reliable identification difficult, and conventional culture- and nuclei...

The aim of this study is to determine the mediating role of ego states in the effect of emotional labor on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in public sector employees. Data was collected from a public enterprise operating in Bandırma district of Balıkesir province. The p...

Artificial intelligence literacy and readiness among neonatal nurses: a structural equation modeling study

Abstract Background Neonatal Intensive Care Units represent high-risk clinical environments where timely and accurate decision-making is critical for newborn survival, increasing the demand for advanced technological support. As artificial intelligence becomes progressively integ...

Associations of cooking and food preparation skills with diet quality and body weight among Turkish women

The relationship between cooking and food preparation skills and health outcomes has received increasing attention, although evidence regarding their independent associations with diet quality and body weight remains inconclusive. This cross-sectional study investigates the relat...

U.S. trade policy uncertainty and global commodity prices: evidence from asymmetric and dynamic asymmetric causality tests

This study examines the relationship between US trade policy uncertainty (TPU) and the global prices of selected commodities. The commodities included in the analysis were selected from among the products that stand out in international trade within their respective groups. These...

Radioactivity Levels and Health Risk Assessment of Base Metal Deposits and Associated Rocks in Northwestern Türkiye

The eastern Biga Peninsula (northwestern Türkiye) hosts numerous polymetallic mineral deposits associated with complex magmatic and hydrothermal systems, which may contribute to elevated natural radioactivity in ore-bearing rocks and their surrounding lithologies. This study aime...
