    A hybrid ResNet50-vision transformer model with an attention mechanism for aerial image classification

    Dataset

    The SAIOD dataset24 was created by gathering aerial images from the Indian state of Sikkim. This data was collected using a DJI Mavic Air drone. The landscape consists of rivers, forests, gorges, hills, undulating surfaces, and populated…

  • MIT’s new magnetic mixer creates the most uniform 3D-printed tissues

    MIT’s new magnetic mixer creates the most uniform 3D-printed tissues

    Gravity often acts as an enemy in the delicate world of 3D bioprinting. Living cells frequently sink to the bottom of printer syringes.

    This settling creates clogs and uneven tissue distribution.

    MIT researchers recently developed a…

    Magnetic mixer improves 3D bioprinting | MIT News

    3D bioprinting, in which living tissues are printed with cells mixed into soft hydrogels, or “bio-inks,” is widely used in the field of bioengineering for modeling or replacing the tissues in our bodies. The print…
