Open AccessDeep learning model for differentiating nasal cavity masses based on nasal endoscopy images
Nasal polyps and inverted papillomas often look similar. Clinically, it is difficult to distinguish the masses by endoscopic examination. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to develop a deep learning algorithm...

Bioinspired nanocomposites with self-adaptive mechanical properties
Conventional synthetic materials have fixed mechanical properties and suffer defects, damage, and degradation over time. This makes them unable to adapt to changing environments and leads to limited lifecycles...
