Detection of circulating tumor cells in blood using two‐step random forest
Cancer has been the leading cause of death among Japanese since 1981, and many people die from it every year worldwide. While various measures have been taken to reduce the mortality rate of cancer, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood ...
Banknote identification based on characteristic differences
A method for banknote identification has been developed. As a prerequisite for this process, an ATM stores records captured from accepted banknotes, including customer's information for identification. The proposed method is implemented when a ...
Estimation of electric field inside a neural spheroid by low‐frequency magnetic field exposure
Exposure to time‐varying, low‐frequency and high‐intensity magnetic field (MF) induce electric field (EF) inside the human body, producing stimulus effects such as nerve fiber excitation or synaptic modulation. To measure such stimulus effects ...
Effects of inserting ultrashort carbon nanotubes into lipid bilayers on membrane morphology
Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are carbon materials with unique thermal, optical, mechanical, and electrical properties, with hollow cylindrical structures of a few nanometers in diameter. CNTs cut to about 10 nm (Ultrashort CNTs, US‐CNTs)...
Optical cavity type of sensor elements for a wide range of hydrogen gas detection
We have demonstrated a wide range of hydrogen gas detection from 200 ppm to 100% at room temperature by using optical cavity type of sensor elements with polarization interference. This explosion‐proof type of sensor element provides a hydrogen ...
