Classification of Pulmonary Nodules Using Multimodal Feature‐Driven Graph Convolutional Networks with Specificity Proficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The radiomics feature could save the storage space of all medical samples; on the other hand, it avoids data leakage. Graph convolutional neural networks could summarize the similarity of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules to improve the performance in distinguishing them with radiomics and common clinical features.

Improving Long‐Term Glucose Prediction Accuracy with Uncertainty‐Estimated ProbSparse‐Transformer

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Wearable devices collect blood glucose and other physiological data, which serve as inputs to the prediction model. After data embedding, a structure utilizing ProbSparse self‐attention and a one‐step generative head within a Transformer‐based model is introduced, which is concurrently designed for deployment on edge devices, enabling real‐time ...

The interplay among space, environment, and gene flow drives genetic differentiation in endemic Baja California Agave sobria subspecies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Research on neutral and adaptive processes that lead to the divergence of species and populations is a crucial component in evolutionary and conservation genetics. Agave sobria is an endemic group of subspecies scattered on canyons along a latitudinal gradient and distinct environments of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico.

“Someday, I'll be an ancestor:” Understanding indigenous intergenerational connectedness through qualitative research to inform measure development

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intergenerational connectedness broadly encompasses relations among humans, lands, and all living and spiritual beings, and functions as an important part of Indigenous well‐being. Many public health campaigns and interventions aim to promote connectedness to support holistic wellness and reduce health inequities. Currently, however, there are
