Recent techniques typically utilize transformers to extract discriminative functions. However, the worldwide interest in these transformers, regular consequences due to the lack of image feature details, and high computational costs result in suboptimal segmentation accuracy and low inference speeds. </p> <p> Objective: To obtain better human segmentation by enhancing model inference speed, this paper applies the Human Spatial Prior Module (HSPM) and the Dynamic Token Pruning Module (DTPM) to deal with real-time three-dimensional environments. </p> <p> Materials and Methods: In this paper, we have applied the Human Spatial Prior Module (HSPM) and the Dynamic Token Pruning Module (DTPM), designed to seize human-unique features in malformed images by dynamically extracting complex information. Meanwhile, the DTPM enhances the inference pace by pruning the point tokens at each Vision Transformer layer (VT). Unlike conventional cropping techniques, the pruned tokens are retained through function maps and selectively reactivated in subsequent layers to enhance model performance. </p> <p> Results and Discussion: To show the effectiveness of our Vision Transformer for Malformed Images (VT-MI), we expand the dataset with an input image size of 512 x 512 and conduct behavior experiments on this prolonged dataset as well as on the COCO, MPII Human Pose, and a few real-time captured image datasets. Our technique achieves a mIoU growth of 86.5 and an FPS improvement of 7.9 on the COCO dataset with 93.21% accuracy, together with mIoU (person) of 86.11 with dynamic token pruning and reactivation on the entire dataset, while additionally decreasing the model size by using approximately 120 GFLOPs. </p> <p> Conclusion: This work contributes deeper insights into vision transformer networks and provides a clear direction towards both image classification and dense prediction tasks. Moreover, extensive experiments help in showcasing comparative analysis that benchmarks the frameworks contributing to image analysis advancements.</p>]]></description> </item><item><title><![CDATA[High-Efficiency Fabric Drying using the Automatic Cloth Drying Tube Machine: A Novel Approach]]></title><link>https://www.benthamscience.com/article/149871</link><pubDate>2026-05-20</pubDate><description><![CDATA[<p>Introduction: Drying clothes in urban environments presents several challenges, including limited space, high humidity, and exposure to pollutants.

Traditional tools often rely on rigid form-based inputs or unstructured conversational agents, which limit usability. This study introduces a novel hybrid interface guided by Large Language Models (LLMs) that combines conversational flexibility with structured controls, enhanced through implicit behavioral feedback, to improve travel planning efficiency. </p> <p> Methods: A system integrating a fine-tuned LLaMA-3 model with a hybrid interface combining conversational and form-based inputs was developed. Implicit feedback (dwell time, clicks) was incorporated via a weighted scoring algorithm to refine recommendations in real time. A user study involving 50 participants was conducted to compare three interfaces: conversational, formbased, and hybrid. Standardized metrics were used, including usability (SUS), cognitive load (NASA-TLX), efficiency (the completion time and the number of iterations), and satisfaction. </p> <p> Results: The hybrid interface achieved a significantly higher usability score than conversational or form-based interfaces (86.1 ± 5.9), lowest cognitive load (28.9 ± 4.7), and fastest itinerary completion time (11.8 ± 1.6 minutes). Recommendation accuracy reached 92%, supported by a 28% reduction in planning iterations due to the integration of implicit feedback. Satisfaction ratings were highest for the hybrid interface (4.6 ± 0.5 on a 5-point scale), with 92% of participants indicating they were satisfied or very satisfied. </p> <p> Discussion: Findings confirm that hybrid interfaces strike a balance between conversational flexibility and structured clarity, substantially improving the user experience compared to traditional approaches. Implicit feedback mechanisms reduce user effort and enhance the relevance of recommendations, demonstrating the advantage of adaptive interaction. Limitations include occasional LLM misinterpretations and minor latency (mean 1.2 seconds per query). Broader benchmarking against traditional recommender baselines suggests clear efficiency gains, though further generalization across domains is warranted. Findings should be interpreted cautiously, as the study was limited to 10 destinations and had a modest participant pool (N = 50). Future work should investigate multimodal inputs (such as voice and image) and conduct longitudinal studies to assess sustained engagement. </p> <p> Conclusion: LLM-guided hybrid interfaces provide a scalable and effective solution for personalized itinerary planning, significantly optimizing usability, accuracy, and efficiency. By integrating implicit behavioral signals with adaptive human–computer interaction, this work advances both intelligent recommendation systems and HCI research, with potential applicability to related domains beyond travel. This work builds upon prior patented approaches in AIdriven itinerary generation and conversational travel assistants, extending them with LLMguided adaptive interaction.</p>]]></description> </item><item><title><![CDATA[HECA-YOLOv11: A High-Accuracy Hybrid Attention Network for Real-Time Monkeypox Skin Lesion Detection with Interpretability]]></title><link>https://www.benthamscience.com/article/151925</link><pubDate>2026-05-20</pubDate><description><![CDATA[<p>Introduction: The global outbreak risk of monkeypox necessitates efficient diagnostic tools. Current methods are slow and struggle to differentiate similar skin lesions, while deep learning models lack both accuracy and interpretability for multi-class classification. This study aims to develop a high-performance, real-time screening tool for early detection of monkeypox and similar conditions. </p> <p> Methods: This study proposes an enhanced architecture that incorporates the Highly Efficient Channel Attention (HECA) mechanism into YOLOv11 to improve feature selection.

Using spatial transformations and pixel-domain enhancements, the research establishes and augments a four-class dataset containing monkeypox, measles, chickenpox, and normal skin images. Gradient-Weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) generates heatmaps for lesion localization visualization, while a PyQt5-based interactive diagnostic interface streamlines clinical workflows. </p> <p> Results: Experimental results demonstrate the proposed model’s superior performance compared to existing approaches (EfficientNet-v2-l, GoogLeNet, ResNet50, VGG19, MobileNetv2, DenseNet201, and YOLOv11s) on the test set, with enhanced detection speed, accuracy (98.9%), precision (99%), recall (99.3%), and F1-score (99.1%). HECA-YOLOv11 outperforms SE-YOLOv11 and ECA-YOLOv11 by over 5.1% across all evaluation metrics. Heatmap analysis confirms the model’s focus on lesion regions, aligning with medical reasoning. </p> <p> Discussion: The integrated attention mechanism and interpretability techniques effectively address key limitations in automated skin lesion detection. The high performance and low latency signify a major advancement towards reliable clinical decision support, with important implications for early outbreak containment. </p> <p> Conclusion: The HECA-YOLOv11 framework provides a highly accurate and efficient tool for early monkeypox screening. Its standardized interface holds significant potential to accelerate public health responses and improve global control of emerging infectious diseases.</p>]]></description> </item></channel></rss>
