Summary: Early detection and diagnosis of oral cancer are crucial for a better prognosis, but accurate and automatic identification using current technologies is challenging. This study aims to assess deep-learning-based algorithms for optical coherence tomography (OCT) images in assisting clinicians with oral cancer screening and diagnosis. The performance of three convolutional neural networks (CNNs) was evaluated using four metrics, and compared with machine learning approaches. The results demonstrate that CNNs outperform machine-learning-based methods, with a classification accuracy of up to 96.76%. Additionally, the visualization of lesions in OCT images and the interpretability of the model for distinguishing different oral tissues were evaluated. This study proves the potential of deep-learning-based automatic identification algorithm for OCT images in providing decision support for effective oral cancer screening and diagnosis.

Summary: We present Vision UFormer (ViUT), a novel deep neural network for monocular depth estimation over long range. ViUT takes an RGB image as input and generates a depth image where each pixel represents the absolute distance of the corresponding object in the scene. It incorporates a Transformer encoder, a ResNet decoder, and UNet style skip connections, and is trained on 1M images from ten different datasets. The results show that ViUT performs well on normalized relative distances and short-range classical datasets, and successfully estimates absolute long-range depth in meters.

Summary: We propose a new method for solving the joint problem of correspondence and triangulation of points from multiple calibrated perspective views. This method has been successfully applied to counting the number of leaves on plants photographed from multiple angles. Our algorithm is robust to noise and occlusion, and can infer occluded points by reasoning on the 3D geometry of the scene. It can handle a large number of points reconstructed from a reduced set of views.

Summary: We present a novel solution for simulating the formation and evolution of glaciers, as well as their erosive effects, in the context of glacial and inter-glacial cycles. Our solution includes a fast and accurate deep learning-based estimation method for high-order ice flows, as well as a new multi-scale advection scheme to handle the different time scales of glacier equilibrium and terrain erosion. By combining these methods, we are able to accurately model the formation of various terrain features, including U-shaped and hanging valleys, fjords, and glacial lakes, which were not adequately represented in previous computer graphics models.
