Contactless vital signs detection has the potential to advance healthcare by offering precise and convenient patient monitoring. This groundbreaking approach not only streamlines the monitoring process, but also allows continuous, real-time assessment of vital signs, allowing early detection of anomalies and prompt intervention. This paper presents a novel framework for contactless vital sign s detection using continuous-wave (CW) radar and advanced signal processing techniques.

In this regard, dental radiography is a widely used tool to capture dental visuals that are used for the detection and diagnosis of caries. Different deep learning (DL) techniques have been used to automatically analyse dental images for caries detection.

In this context, we propose a novel low-cost, compact inkjet-printed UHF RFID tag antenna design for liquid bottles, with 2.5 m read range improvement over existing designs along with robust performance on different liquid bottle products.

The unique characteristics of the propagation medium in the THz band renders the existing techniques (say for impersonation detection in cellular networks) not applicable. In this work, we considered a body-centric network with multiple on-body nano-senor nodes (of which some nano-sensors have been compromised) who communicate their sensed data to a nearby gateway node.

There is substantial evidence that lifestyle modifications and drug intervention can prevent diabetes, therefore, an early identification of high risk individuals is important to design targeted prevention strategies. In this paper, we present an automatic tool that uses machine learning techniques to predict the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
