Artificial Intelligence in Endodontics: A Systematic review of Diagnostic Applications and Clinical Performance

Background: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in endodontics has gained substantial attention in recent years, offering innovative solutions for diagnosis, treatment planning, and clinical decision-making. Given the increasing complexity of endodontic procedures and the limitations of human analysis in imaging, AI systems present a promising alternative to support dental professionals.

150 Years of Urban Evolution (1800-1950) and Portuguese Influences in Teresina

This scientific article aims to present the process of urban evolution of Teresina - Piauí, Brazil from 1800 to 1950 and discuss the influences of 18th century Portuguese urban planning on the city's urban design. The study showed how the creation of new cities during the colonial period in Brazil influenced urban planning in Teresina, the first planned capital of the imperial period. Although influenced by Portuguese norms, urban planning in colonial Brazil was adapted to local conditions and city formation needs.

Adaptive Automl Pipelines for Large-Scale Data Streams Under Concept Drift

Data stream mining in non-stationary environments presents the twin challenges of automated model selection and concept drift adaptation. This paper proposes a framework for Adaptive AutoML Pipelines capable of continuous learning from large-scale streaming data under evolving distributions. We integrate Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) with online learning to dynamically optimize full model pipelines – including preprocessing, feature selection, and classification – as new data arrive and concepts change.

Review on: Thiolate based metal Complexes as Potential advanced Material for Electronic Industrial and Bio-Medical Applications

The dithiolene ligands and their complexes are well recognized by researchers. The diverse bonding behavior and versatility in chemical nature resulting from electronically delocalized pathway for electrons in the structure of these complexes. These specific features make them very promising raw molecular compounds synthesis of wide variety of magnetically and electronically important materials. Several main group, alkali metal and transition metal complexes with conductive, semi conductive and super conductive properties have been reported.

Analysis of clogging failure modes in permeable reactive barriers (prbs) during groundwater remediation of landfill contamination

Groundwater is a crucial component of water resources, yet the situation of groundwater pollution in China is severe, with municipal solid waste landfills being one of the primary sources of contamination. Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs), a passive in-situ remediation system, offer numerous advantages in treating groundwater contaminated by landfills but are prone to clogging issues. This study examines the clogging problem in PRBs during the remediation of contaminated groundwater from both exogenous and endogenous particulate perspectives, exploring the clogging patterns of PRBs.

Socially conscious frugal design solutions: Innovating for the needs of homeless individuals

The Homelessness remains a critical global challenge, necessitating innovative, cost-effective, and socially conscious design solutions. Frugal design—rooted in affordability, sustainability, and efficiency—offers a promising approach to addressing the needs of homeless individuals while minimizing resource consumption.

Heavy metal distribution in Water, Sediment and some Benthic Organisms in Nwaniba River of Akwaibom State

This study assesses the distribution of heavy metals in water, sediment, and some benthic organisms in Nwaniba River, Akwa Ibom state. A total of 7 heavy metals (Fe, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, Cr and Mn) were determined using the Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopic (ICP-OES) technique. The results showed mean concentration in water as: Cr(0.0061 mg/l), Cu(0.0437 mg/l), Mn(0.1124 mg/l), Ni (0.0351 mg/l) and Fe(3.1196 mg/l). The mean concentration of heavy metals in sediment, crab, periwinkle flesh and periwinkle shell ranged between 2.4479 - 101.8957 mg/kg for Cr, Cu (51.
