Blockchain‐Enabled Risk‐Aware RPL With Real‐Time Rank Evaluation and Trust‐Weighted Consensus for Secure IoT Routing

ABSTRACT The need for efficient routing arises in Internet of Things (IoT)–based networks that comprise low‐power and lossy nodes. Routing Protocol for Low‐Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) has multiple limitations, including rank manipulation attacks, inefficient energy utilization...

Pseudo-RGB Slice Stacking in 2D ResUNet for High-Sensitivity Multiple Sclerosis Lesion Segmentation

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, affecting more than 2.8 million individuals worldwide. Automated segmentation of white matter lesions on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance...

Orbital engineering for enhanced quantum capacitance and ion transport in supercapacitor electrodes: Ni–N Co-Doped V₂C/WS₂ MXene heterostructure

Abstract This study presents a comprehensive first-principles density functional theory (DFT) investigation into how single (Ni, N) and synergistic Ni–N co-doping modifies the structural, electronic, and electrochemical properties of V₂C/WS₂ an oxygen-terminated V₂CO₂/WS₂ heteros...

The Substrate-EngineModel of Ferroptosis: Stage-SpecificTargeting of Acyl-CoA Synthetase Long-Chain Family Member 4 and 5-Lipoxygenasein Alzheimer’s Disease

Abstract Ferroptosis-targeted therapies in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have yielded consistent preclinical evidence; however, their translation into clinical outcomes has remained elusive. This mismatch reflects a fundamental flaw that conceptualizes this peroxidative pathway as a s...

Predictive Modeling of Zero Inflated Count Data with Spatio-temporal Effects

Count data observed in numerous real-world applications, particularly in fields such as epidemiology, highway safety and insurance often exhibit overdispersion, excess number of zeros and spatio-temporal heterogeneity. To address these issues, in this article, zero-inflated gener...
