A novel medical image segmentation framework that integrates an enhanced Particle Swarm Optimization (EE‐PSO) into DeepLabV3+ to optimize feature selection. By dynamically identifying key channels in the atrous spatial pyramid pooling module, the method improves segmentation performance, achieving mIoU gains of 2.7% on Alzheimer's and 2.8% on brain ...

Abstract Premise Climate change poses challenges to grasslands, including those of the North American Great Plains Region, where shifts in species distributions and fire dynamics are expected. Our present analysis focuses on remaining grasslands within this largely developed and agricultural region. The differential responses of C4 and C3 grass species
