• Abstract: This article presents a novel approach to keyframe detection in ultrasound videos, with a particular focus on fetal brain imaging. The proposed model is a composite neural network architecture that combines a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). The CNN extracts spatial features from individual video frames, while the RNN captures temporal dependencies between consecutive frames within each video sequence. The proposed model may improve the efficiency and accuracy of fetal brain ultrasound analysis, thereby supporting earlier detection, diagnosis, and treatment planning for selected fetal brain conditions.

  We present a novel approach for 3D/2D intraoperative registration during neurosurgery via cross-modal inverse neural rendering. Our approach separates implicit neural representation into two components, handling anatomical structure preoperatively and appearance intraoperatively. We tested our method on retrospective patients' data from clinical cases, showing that our method outperforms state-of-the-art while meeting current clinical standards for registration.

  This research evaluates a convolutional neural network (CNN) based approach to forensic video steganalysis. A video steganography dataset is created to train a CNN to conduct forensic steganalysis in the spatial domain. We use a noise residual convolutional neural network to detect embedded secrets since a steganographic embedding process will always result in the modification of pixel values in video frames.

  Brain-inspired spiking neural networks (SNNs) have demonstrated promising capabilities in solving pattern recognition tasks. These SNNs are grounded on homogeneous neurons that utilize a uniform neural coding for information representation. In this study, we argue that SNN architectures should be holistically designed to incorporate heterogeneous coding schemes.
