Abstract
This article presents a framework to assist in the design of technology-based interactive services for active mobility, which allows the data collected from the sensors to be made available to citizens. The proposed framework was developed based on data collected in focus group sessions held with potential stakeholders and on related models and frameworks. It consists of 8 steps, namely: strategy, scope, structure, skeleton, aesthetics and execution. It will enable the presentation of relevant information that will help users of active modes of transport in decision making in choosing a safe and comfortable route, assist professionals involved in the elaboration of interactive projects and promote more collaborative urban planning. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
This work considers the problem of segmenting heart sounds into their fundamental components. We unify statistical and data-driven solutions by introducing Markov-based Neural Networks (MNNs), a hybrid end-toend framework that exploits Markov models as statistical inductive biases for an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) discriminator. We show that an MNN leveraging a simple onedimensional Convolutional ANN significantly outperforms two recent purely data-driven solutions for this task in two publicly available datasets: PhysioNet 2016 (Sensitivity: 0.947 +/- 0.02; Positive Predictive Value : 0.937 +/- 0.025) and the CirCor DigiScope 2022 (Sensitivity: 0.950 +/- 0.008; Positive Predictive Value: 0.943 +/- 0.012). We also propose a novel gradient-based unsupervised learning algorithm that effectively makes the MNN adaptive to unseen datum sampled from unknown distributions. We perform a cross dataset analysis and show that an MNN pre-trained in the CirCor DigiScope 2022 can benefit from an average improvement of 3.90% Positive Predictive Value on unseen observations from the PhysioNet 2016 dataset using this method.

Abstract
Gastric Cancer (GC) and Colorectal Cancer (CRC) are some of the most common cancers in the world. The most common diagnostic methods are upper endoscopy and biopsy. Possible expert distractions can lead to late diagnosis. GC is a less studied malignancy than CRC, leading to scarce public data that difficult the use of AI detection methods, unlike CRC where public data are available. Considering that CRC endoscopic images present some similarities with GC, a CRC Transfer Learning approach could be used to improve AI GC detectors. This paper evaluates a novel Transfer Learning approach for real-time GC detection, using a YOLOv4 model pre-trained on CRC detection. The results achieved are promising since GC detection improved relatively to the traditional Transfer Learning strategy.

Abstract
Two-dimensional echocardiography is the most widely used non-invasive imaging modality due to its fast acquisition time, low cost, and high temporal resolution. Accurate segmentation of the left ventricle in echocardiography is vital for ensuring the accuracy of subsequent diagnosis. Currently, numerous efforts have been made to automatize this task and various public datasets have been released in recent decades to further develop present research. However, medical datasets acquired at different institutions have inherent bias caused by various confounding factors, such as operation policies, machine protocols, treatment preference, etc. As a result, models trained on one dataset, regardless of volume, cannot be confidently utilized for the others. In this study, we investigated model robustness to dataset bias using two publicly available echocardiographic datasets. This work validates the efficacy of a supervised deep learning model for left ventricle segmentation and ejection fraction prediction, outside the dataset on which it was trained. The exposure of this model to unseen, but related samples without additional training maintained a good performance. However, a performance decrease from the original results can be observed, while the impact of quality is also noteworthy with lower quality data leading to decreased performance.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract is responsible for the entire digestive process. Several diseases, including colorectal cancer, can affect this pathway. Among the deadliest cancers, colorectal cancer is the second most common. It arises from benign tumors in the colon, rectum, and anus. These benign tumors, known as colorectal polyps, can be diagnosed and removed during colonoscopy. Early detection is essential to reduce the risk of cancer. However, approximately 28% of polyps are lost during this examination, mainly because of limitations in diagnostic techniques and image analysis methods. In recent years, computer-aided detection techniques for these lesions have been developed to improve detection quality during periodic examinations. We proposed an automatic method for polyp detection using colonoscopy images. This study presents a two-stage polyp detection method for colonoscopy images using transformers. In the first stage, a saliency map extraction model is supported by the extracted depth maps to identify possible polyp areas. The second stage of the method consists of detecting polyps in the extracted images resulting from the first stage, combined with the green and blue channels. Several experiments were performed using four public colonoscopy datasets. The best results obtained for the polyp detection task were satisfactory, reaching 91% Average Precision in the CVC-ClinicDB dataset, 92% Average Precision in the Kvasir-SEG dataset, and 84% Average Precision in the CVC-ColonDB dataset. This study demonstrates that polyp detection in colonoscopy images can be efficiently performed using a combination of depth maps, salient object-extracted maps, and transformers.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a numerical comparison of how well segmentation algorithms approximate the manual segmentation of gastroenterologists for a set of endoscopic images. Different areas in these images demand different levels of analysis by a clinician and some provide critical information about the patient. Our objective is thus to segment endoscopic images so that the results mimic as closely as possible the areas that were considered relevant by doctors. We focus on a detailed quantitative comparison of two popular segmentation algorithms, mean shift and normalized cuts, when applied to in-body images, most specifically for vital-stained magnification endoscopy. Segmentation results are compared with the manual annotations of the same images performed by two specialist clinicians. Results show that if we simply consider the most relevant segmented patch, normalized cuts performs better. However, if we allow the annotated area to be represented by multiple patches, mean shift is clearly a better choice, although automatic ways to determine its kernel's bandwidth are highly desirable.
