In the study, the authors looked at an environmentally friendly alternative to A/C systems/cooling. They wanted to test the effectiveness of this cooling system called the Eco-Cooler as well as see if they could improve it. They found that the Eco-Cooler had minimal cooling, while their altered Eco-Cooler system had some cooling. This results shows the use of water helps cool the environment a lot more.

The authors created a 1D model to diagnose hepatomegaly and cirrhosis via ultrasound of the liver.

The authors use machine learning on MRI images of brain tissue to predict tumor onset as an avenue for early detection of brain cancer.

Arsenic contamination in rice, caused by the use of arsenic-laden groundwater for irrigation, is a growing global concern, affecting over 150 million people. To address this, researchers hypothesized that genetically modifying rice plants with arsenic-resistant genes could reduce arsenic uptake and allow the plants to detoxify arsenic, making them safer to consume.

Fungi that attack and kill insects have promise for targeting mosquitoes without the harmful environmental impacts of chemicals like DDT. To find out whether fungi might be effective in controlling mosquitoes in Hawaii, Jiang and Chan test the effects of Hawaiian fungal isolates on mosquito larvae.

Authors emphasize the challenges of manual tumor segmentation and the potential of deep learning models to enhance accuracy by automatically analyzing MRI scans.

Many diabetics agree that the current glucometer methods are invasive, inefficient, and unsustainable for measuring blood glucose. These authors investigate the possibility of using a non-invasive glucometer patch that predicts blood glucose from patient sweat, with high accuracy.

Here recognizing the growing amount of plastic waste in the oceans, the authors sought to develop and test laser imaging for the identification of waste in water. They found that while possible, limitations such as increasing depth and water turbidity result in increasing blurriness in laser images. While their image processing methods were somewhat insufficient they identified recent methods to use deep learning-based techniques as a potential avenue to viability for this method.

In this study, the authors tested whether the compound bromelain extracted from pineapples could protect skin cells from UV damage.

Using a convolution neural network, these authors show machine learning can clinically diagnose breast cancer with high accuracy.
