Article Abstract

Korsakoff's syndrome (KS) is a chronic neuropsychiatric disorder caused by alcohol abuse and thiamine deficiency. Patients with KS show restricted autonomy due to their severe declarative amnesia and executive disorders. Recently, it has been suggested that procedural learning and memory are relatively preserved in KS and can effectively support autonomy in KS. In the present review we describe the available evidence on procedural learning and memory in KS and highlight advances in memory rehabilitation that have been demonstrated to support procedural memory. The specific purpose of this review was to increase insights in the available tools for successful memory rehabilitation and give suggestions how to apply these tools in clinical practice to increase procedural learning in KS. Current evidence suggests that when memory rehabilitation is adjusted to the specific needs of KS patients, this will increase their ability to learn procedures and their typically compromised autonomy gets enhanced.

Multimodal self-supervised retinal vessel segmentation.

Neural Netw

September 2025

Guangdong Laboratory of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Economy (SZ), Shenzhen, China. Electronic address:

Automatic segmentation of retinal vessels from retinography images is crucial for timely clinical diagnosis. However, the high cost and specialized expertise required for annotating medical images often result in limited labeled datasets, which constrains the full potential of deep learning methods. Recent advances in self-supervised pretraining using unlabeled data have shown significant benefits for downstream tasks.

Inter-modality feature prediction through multimodal fusion for 3D shape defect detection.

Neural Netw

September 2025

School of Automation and Intelligent Sensing, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200240, China; Institute of Image Processing and Pattern Recognition, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200240, China; Institute of Medical Robotics, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200240, China.

3D shape defect detection plays an important role in autonomous industrial inspection. However, accurate detection of anomalies remains challenging due to the complexity of multimodal sensor data, especially when both color and structural information are required. In this work, we propose a lightweight inter-modality feature prediction framework that effectively utilizes multimodal fused features from the inputs of RGB, depth and point clouds for efficient 3D shape defect detection.

Cross-modal hashing aims to leverage hashing functions to map multimodal data into a unified low-dimensional space, realizing efficient cross-modal retrieval. In particular, unsupervised cross-modal hashing methods attract significant attention for not needing external label information. However, in the field of unsupervised cross-modal hashing, there are several pressing issues to address: (1) how to facilitate semantic alignment between modalities, and (2) how to effectively capture the intrinsic relationships between data, thereby constructing a more reliable affinity matrix to assist in the learning of hash codes.

Faculty of Applied Sciences, Ton Duc Thang University, Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam. Electronic address:

Food spoilage poses a global challenge with far-reaching consequences for public health, economic stability, and environmental sustainability. Conventional analytical methods for spoilage detection though accurate are often cost-prohibitive, labor-intensive, and unsuitable for real-time or field-based monitoring. Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) have emerged as a transformative technology offering rapid, portable, and cost-effective solutions for food quality assessment.

Department of Information Systems and Cybersecurity, The University of Texas at San Antonio, 1 UTSA Circle, San Antonio, TX, 78249, United States, 1 (210) 458-6300.

Background: Adverse drug reactions (ADR) present significant challenges in health care, where early prevention is vital for effective treatment and patient safety. Traditional supervised learning methods struggle to address heterogeneous health care data due to their unstructured nature, regulatory constraints, and restricted access to sensitive personal identifiable information.

Objective: This review aims to explore the potential of federated learning (FL) combined with natural language processing and large language models (LLMs) to enhance ADR prediction.
