Application of Transfer Learning and Ensemble Learning in Image-level Classification for Breast HistopathologyYuchao Zheng, Chen Li, Xiaomin Zhou et al.
Background: Breast cancer has the highest prevalence in women globally. The classification and diagnosis of breast cancer and its histopathological images have always been a hot spot of clinical concern. In Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD), traditional classification models mostly use a single network to extract features, which has significant limitations. On the other hand, many networks are trained and optimized on patient-level datasets, ignoring the application of lower-level data labels. Method: This paper proposes a deep ensemble model based on image-level labels for the binary classification of benign and malignant lesions of breast histopathological images. First, the BreaKHis dataset is randomly divided into a training, validation and test set. Then, data augmentation techniques are used to balance the number of benign and malignant samples. Thirdly, considering the performance of transfer learning and the complementarity between each network, VGG16, Xception, ResNet50, DenseNet201 are selected as the base classifiers. Result: In the ensemble network model with accuracy as the weight, the image-level binary classification achieves an accuracy of $98.90\%$. In order to verify the capabilities of our method, the latest Transformer and Multilayer Perception (MLP) models have been experimentally compared on the same dataset. Our model wins with a $5\%-20\%$ advantage, emphasizing the ensemble model's far-reaching significance in classification tasks. Conclusion: This research focuses on improving the model's classification performance with an ensemble algorithm. Transfer learning plays an essential role in small datasets, improving training speed and accuracy. Our model has outperformed many existing approaches in accuracy, providing a method for the field of auxiliary medical diagnosis.

Efficient Numerical Conformal Mappings on Multiply Connected Riemann SurfacesH. Hakula, A. Rasila, Y. Zheng
The conjugate function method is an algorithm for numerical computation of conformal mappings for simply and multiply connected domains on surfaces. In this paper the conjugate function method, earlier used for simply connected domains, is generalized and refined to achieve the same level of accuracy on multiply connected planar domains and Riemann surfaces. The main challenge is the accurate and efficient construction of boundary values for the conjugate problem on multiply connected domains. The method relies on high-order finite element methods which allow for highly accurate computations of mappings on surfaces, including domains of complex boundary geometry containing strong singularities and cusps. We also derive the reciprocal error estimate for the multiply connected case. The efficacy of the proposed method is illustrated via an extensive set of numerical experiments with error estimates.

SenseRay-3D: Generalizable and Physics-Informed Framework for End-to-End Indoor Propagation ModelingYu Zheng, Kezhi Wang, Wenji Xi et al.
Modeling indoor radio propagation is crucial for wireless network planning and optimization. However, existing approaches often rely on labor-intensive manual modeling of geometry and material properties, resulting in limited scalability and efficiency. To overcome these challenges, this paper presents SenseRay-3D, a generalizable and physics-informed end-to-end framework that predicts three-dimensional (3D) path-loss heatmaps directly from RGB-D scans, thereby eliminating the need for explicit geometry reconstruction or material annotation. The proposed framework builds a sensing-driven voxelized scene representation that jointly encodes occupancy, electromagnetic material characteristics, and transmitter-receiver geometry, which is processed by a SwinUNETR-based neural network to infer environmental path-loss relative to free-space path-loss. A comprehensive synthetic indoor propagation dataset is further developed to validate the framework and to serve as a standardized benchmark for future research. Experimental results show that SenseRay-3D achieves a mean absolute error of 4.27 dB on unseen environments and supports real-time inference at 217 ms per sample, demonstrating its scalability, efficiency, and physical consistency. SenseRay-3D paves a new path for sense-driven, generalizable, and physics-consistent modeling of indoor propagation, marking a major leap beyond our pioneering EM DeepRay framework.

Multimodal 3D Brain Tumor Segmentation with Adversarial Training and Conditional Random FieldLan Jiang, Yuchao Zheng, Miao Yu et al.
Accurate brain tumor segmentation remains a challenging task due to structural complexity and great individual differences of gliomas. Leveraging the pre-eminent detail resilience of CRF and spatial feature extraction capacity of V-net, we propose a multimodal 3D Volume Generative Adversarial Network (3D-vGAN) for precise segmentation. The model utilizes Pseudo-3D for V-net improvement, adds conditional random field after generator and use original image as supplemental guidance. Results, using the BraTS-2018 dataset, show that 3D-vGAN outperforms classical segmentation models, including U-net, Gan, FCN and 3D V-net, reaching specificity over 99.8%.
