Detection of Masses in Mammogram Images Based on the Enhanced RetinaNet Network With INbreast Dataset by Wang M, Liu R, Luttrell IV J, Zhang C, Xie J

“…Additionally, we introduced transfer learning techniques into training process through leveraging pre-trained weights from other RetinaNet applications, and fine-tuned our improved model using the INbreast dataset.Results: The aforementioned innovations facilitate superior performance of the enhanced RetiaNet model on the public dataset INbreast, as evidenced by a mAP (mean average precision) of 1.0000 and TPR (true positive rate) of 1.00 at 0.00 FPPI (false positive per image) on the INbreast dataset.Conclusion: The experimental results demonstrate that our enhanced RetinaNet model defeats the existing models by having more generalization performance than other published studies, and it can also be applied to other types of patients to assist doctors in making a proper diagnosis. …”

Land Use and Ecosystem Service Value Spatiotemporal Dynamics, Topographic Gradient Effect and Their Driving Factors in Typical Alpine Ecosystems of the East Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau:... by Bin Feng, Jianwei Zhou, Lu Hu, Zherong Liu, Yi Yang, Shuai Yang, Jianying Ni, Wenke Bai, Shanshan Zhao

“…Grasslands played the most substantial role in contributing to Shiqu's ESV. (3) From 1980 to 2020, all ecosystem service functions exhibited ESV growth, with hydrological regulation and water supply notably increasing by 9.07% and 8.81%, respectively. (4) Land‐use distribution demonstrates significant vertical zonation along gradients of altitude, slope, aspect, and terrain ruggedness, resulting in pronounced vertical variations in ESV, per unit area ESV, and ESV across various ecosystem service functions. (5) The spatial differentiation of ESV in Shiqu County is influenced by both natural and economic factors, with natural factors exerting a more substantial influence on spatial disparities than economic factors. …”
