Whole-Body Lesion Segmentation in 18F-FDG PET/CT

Jia Zhang, Yukun Huang, Zheng Zhang et al.

There has been growing research interest in using deep learning based method to achieve fully automated segmentation of lesion in Positron emission tomography computed tomography(PET CT) scans for the prognosis of various cancers. Recent advances in the medical image segmentation shows the nnUNET is feasible for diverse tasks. However, lesion segmentation in the PET images is not straightforward, because lesion and physiological uptake has similar distribution patterns. The Distinction of them requires extra structural information in the CT images. The present paper introduces a nnUNet based method for the lesion segmentation task. The proposed model is designed on the basis of the joint 2D and 3D nnUNET architecture to predict lesions across the whole body. It allows for automated segmentation of potential lesions. We evaluate the proposed method in the context of AutoPet Challenge, which measures the lesion segmentation performance in the metrics of dice score, false-positive volume and false-negative volume.

Tibetan Language and AI: A Comprehensive Survey of Resources, Methods and Challenges

Cheng Huang, Nyima Tashi, Fan Gao et al.

Tibetan, one of the major low-resource languages in Asia, presents unique linguistic and sociocultural characteristics that pose both challenges and opportunities for AI research. Despite increasing interest in developing AI systems for underrepresented languages, Tibetan has received limited attention due to a lack of accessible data resources, standardized benchmarks, and dedicated tools. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of the current state of Tibetan AI in the AI domain, covering textual and speech data resources, NLP tasks, machine translation, speech recognition, and recent developments in LLMs. We systematically categorize existing datasets and tools, evaluate methods used across different tasks, and compare performance where possible. We also identify persistent bottlenecks such as data sparsity, orthographic variation, and the lack of unified evaluation metrics. Additionally, we discuss the potential of cross-lingual transfer, multi-modal learning, and community-driven resource creation. This survey aims to serve as a foundational reference for future work on Tibetan AI research and encourages collaborative efforts to build an inclusive and sustainable AI ecosystem for low-resource languages.
