ProKAN: Progressive Stacking of Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks for Efficient Liver Segmentation

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The growing need for accurate and efficient 3D identification of tumors, particularly in liver segmentation, has spurred considerable research into deep learning models. While many existing architectures offer strong performance, they often face challenges such as overfitting and excessive computational costs. An adjustable and flexible architecture that strikes a balance between time efficiency and model complexity remains an unmet requirement. In this paper, we introduce proKAN, a progressive stacking methodology for Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) designed to address these challenges. Unlike traditional architectures, proKAN dynamically adjusts its complexity by progressively adding KAN blocks during training, based on overfitting behavior. This approach allows the network to stop growing when overfitting is detected, preventing unnecessary computational overhead while maintaining high accuracy. Additionally, proKAN utilizes KAN's learnable activation functions modeled through B-splines, which provide enhanced flexibility in learning complex relationships in 3D medical data. Our proposed architecture achieves state-of-the-art performance in liver segmentation tasks, outperforming standard Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs) and fixed KAN architectures. The dynamic nature of proKAN ensures efficient training times and high accuracy without the risk of overfitting. Furthermore, proKAN provides better interpretability by allowing insight into the decision-making process through its learnable coefficients. The experimental results demonstrate a significant improvement in accuracy, Dice score, and time efficiency, making proKAN a compelling solution for 3D medical image segmentation tasks.

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Traditional base station siting (BSS) methods rely heavily on drive testing and user feedback, which are laborious and require extensive expertise in communication, networking, and optimization. As large language models (LLMs) and their associated technologies advance, particularly in the realms of prompt engineering and agent engineering, network optimization will witness a revolutionary approach. This approach entails the strategic use of well-crafted prompts to infuse human experience and knowledge into these sophisticated LLMs, and the deployment of autonomous agents as a communication bridge to seamlessly connect the machine language based LLMs with human users using natural language. This integration represents the future paradigm of artificial intelligence (AI) as a service and AI for more ease. As a preliminary exploration, this research first develops a novel LLM-empowered BSS optimization framework, and heuristically proposes four different potential implementations: the strategies based on Prompt-optimized LLM (PoL), human-in-the-Loop LLM (HiLL), LLM-empowered autonomous BSS agent (LaBa), and Cooperative multiple LLM-based autonomous BSS agents (CLaBa). Through evaluation on real-world data, the experiments demonstrate that prompt-assisted LLMs and LLM-based agents can generate more efficient, cost-effective, and reliable network deployments, noticeably enhancing the efficiency of BSS optimization and reducing trivial manual participation.

A mobile ad hoc network is made up of a number of wireless portable nodes that spontaneously come together en route for establish a transitory network with no need for any central management. A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is made up of a sizable and reasonably dense community of mobile nodes that travel across any terrain and rely solely on wireless interfaces for communication, not on any well before centralized management. Furthermore, routing be supposed to offer a method for instantly delivering data across a network between any two nodes. Finding the best packet routing from across infrastructure is the major issue, though. The proposed protocol's major goal is to identify the least-expensive nominal capacity acquisition that assures the transportation of realistic transport that ensures its durability in the event of any node failure. This study suggests the Optimized Route Selection via Red Imported Fire Ants (RIFA) Strategy as a way to improve on-demand source routing systems. Predicting Route Failure and energy Utilization is used to pick the path during the routing phase. Proposed work assess the results of the comparisons based on performance parameters like as energy usage, packet delivery rate (PDR), and end-to-end (E2E) delay. The outcome demonstrates that the proposed strategy is preferable and increases network lifetime while lowering node energy consumption and typical E2E delay under the majority of network performance measures and factors.


A Cognitive Study on Semantic Similarity Analysis of Large Corpora: A Transformer-based Approach

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Semantic similarity analysis and modeling is a fundamentally acclaimed task in many pioneering applications of natural language processing today. Owing to the sensation of sequential pattern recognition, many neural networks like RNNs and LSTMs have achieved satisfactory results in semantic similarity modeling. However, these solutions are considered inefficient due to their inability to process information in a non-sequential manner, thus leading to the improper extraction of context. Transformers function as the state-of-the-art architecture due to their advantages like non-sequential data processing and self-attention. In this paper, we perform semantic similarity analysis and modeling on the U.S Patent Phrase to Phrase Matching Dataset using both traditional and transformer-based techniques. We experiment upon four different variants of the Decoding Enhanced BERT - DeBERTa and enhance its performance by performing K-Fold Cross-Validation. The experimental results demonstrate our methodology's enhanced performance compared to traditional techniques, with an average Pearson correlation score of 0.79.

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Breast cancer (BC) remains a significant health threat, with no long-term cure currently available. Early detection is crucial, yet mammography interpretation is hindered by high false positives and negatives. With BC incidence projected to surpass lung cancer, improving early detection methods is vital. Thermography, using high-resolution infrared cameras, offers promise, especially when combined with artificial intelligence (AI). This work presents an attention-based convolutional neural network for segmentation, providing increased speed and precision in BC detection and classification. The system enhances images and performs cancer segmentation with explainable AI. We propose a transformer-attention-based convolutional architecture (UNet) for fault identification and employ Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) to analyze areas of bias and weakness in the UNet architecture with IRT images. The superiority of our proposed framework is confirmed when compared with existing deep learning frameworks.
