Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8962: MMAC-Net: A Multi-Modal Multi-Label Attention-Based Deep Learning Approach for Automated ICD-9 Coding of Rare Disease Admissions from Electronic Health Records

4+ day, 16+ hour ago   (537+ words) Automating the identification of International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes from electronic health records (EHRs) presents a critical challenge, particularly for rare diseases where existing computational methods severely underperform due to extreme long-tail label distributions. To address this, we propose a…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8873: Window-Level Semantic Enrichment of Texture-Mapped Building Models in Urban Digital Twins

6+ day, 22+ hour ago   (341+ words) This paper presents a computational pipeline for window-level semantic enrichment of texture-mapped building models used in urban digital twins (UDTs). The pipeline combines SAM-based candidate generation, super-resolution-based input matching (SRIM), a fine-tuned ResNet-50 window/non-window classifier, and texture-to-mesh mapping to…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8737: Adversarial Robustness in URL-Based Phishing Detection: Problem-Space Evaluation and Robust Feature Engineering

1+ week, 4+ day ago   (694+ words) Machine learning has become a widely adopted approach for URL-based phishing detection, with many studies reporting F1 scores exceeding 0.95 on benchmark datasets. However, recent adversarial machine learning research has questioned the robustness of these models, suggesting that small input perturbations can…...
