Visual Foundation Models with Adapter Learning for Parkinson’s Disease Recognition based on OCT Images

This paper proposes a parameter-efficient Parkinson's disease recognition framework that leverages pre-trained visual foundation models with three lightweight adapters (global, local, and token-wise) to achieve competitive performance on OCT images while significantly reducing trainable parameters compared to traditional deep neural networks.

Spatiotemporal prediction of unsafe road conditions using weather and infrastructure proximity information - A comparative study across model learning paradigms

This study benchmarks nine machine learning models on Dutch motorway data to predict five types of unsafe road conditions, finding that Random Forest and XGBoost outperform deep learning approaches while demonstrating that weather features are more predictive than infrastructure proximity, though data sparsity and coarse features currently limit the models' reliability for calibrated risk forecasting.
