A Generative AI Framework to Predict Cardiomyocyte Contraction Function From Single Static Images

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A single static hiPSC‐cardiomyocyte image is fed into a U‐Net‐GAN framework, which directly predicts a pixel‐resolved contraction heatmap without time‐lapse imaging. StyleGAN2‐generated synthetic cell–heatmap pairs augment training, improving prediction fidelity (SSIM = 0.84).

Toward Fully Soft and Multifunctional Shape Sensing via Optical Waveguide Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work develops a sheet made with arrays of soft optical fibers that can reconstruct its 3D surface shape. Synergy of the waveguides’ responses to bending and pressing force allows shape reconstruction with resilience to damage. Applied onto surfaces of robotic or living systems, our design can be implemented in virtual reality, teleoperation ...
