    Abstract In the scope of public health, the rapid identification and control of infectious disease outbreaks are a paramount concern. Traditional surveillance methods often face challenges in effectively combining genetic, geographical, and temporal data, which is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of disease transmission dynamics. Addressing this critical need, the Spatiotemporal Phylogenomic Research and Epidemiological Analysis Dashboard (SPREAD) emerges as an innovative standalone web-based application. SPREAD integrates several modules for detailed genomic relationships, pinpointing genetically close pathogens, and spatial mapping, providing in-depth views of how diseases spread across populations and territories, with significant advantage to manage both bacteria and viruses based on allele and variant calling, respectively. Designed for broad accessibility, SPREAD operates seamlessly within web browsers, eliminating the need for sophisticated IT infrastructure and facilitating its use across various public health contexts. Its intuitive interface ensures that users can effortlessly navigate complex datasets, facilitating widespread access to advanced surveillance capabilities. Through its initial deployments, SPREAD has proven instrumental in quickly identifying transmission clusters, significantly aiding in the formulation of prompt and targeted public health responses. Through the integration of state-of-the-art technology with a focus on user-centered design, SPREAD offers a promising solution that highlights the potential of digital health innovations.

    Abstract Sensitive, accurate, and reliable detection of explosives has become one of the major needs for international security and environmental protection. Colloidal quantum dots, because of their unique chemical, optical, and electrical properties, as well as easy synthesis route and functionalization, have demonstrated high potential to meet the requirements for the development of suitable sensors, boosting the research in the field of explosive detection. Here, we critically review the most relevant research works, highlighting three different mechanisms for explosive detection based on colloidal quantum dots, namely photoluminescence, electrochemical, and chemoresistive sensing. We provide a comprehensive overview and an extensive discussion and comparison in terms of the most relevant sensor parameters. We highlight advantages, limitations, and challenges of quantum dot-based explosive sensors and outline future research directions for the advancement of knowledge in this surging research field.

    Abstract Bot accounts are automated software programs that act as legitimate human profiles on social networks. Identifying these kinds of accounts is a challenging problem due to the high variety and heterogeneity that bot accounts exhibit. In this work, we use genetic algorithms and genetic programming to discover interpretable classification models for Twitter bot detection with competitive qualitative performance, high scalability, and good generalization capabilities. Specifically, we use a genetic programming method with a set of primitives that involves simple mathematical operators. This enables us to discover a human-readable detection algorithm that exhibits a detection accuracy close to the top state-of-the-art methods on the TwiBot-20 dataset while providing predictions that can be interpreted, and whose uncertainty can be easily measured. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first attempt at adopting evolutionary computation techniques for detecting bot profiles on social media platforms.

    Abstract Amidst the pandemic that has mesmerized the entire world, as it has not spared anyone according to any specific characteristic, some conditions have, in fact, emerged as risk factors for a complicated evolution of COVID-19. Older age, cardiovascular disease including hypertension, diabetes and pulmonary disease, have been associated with more severe presentations and/or adverse prognosis. In this letter to the editor, we propose that the link between cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and the higher incidence and worse prognosis of COVID-19 patients is the (micro) vascular endothelium.

    Abstract Waste material classification is a challenging yet important task in waste management. The realization of low-cost waste classification systems and methods is critical to meet the ever-increasing demand for efficient waste management and recycling. In this paper, we demonstrate a simple, compact and low-cost classification system based on optical reflectance measurements in the short-wave infrared for the segregation of waste materials such as plastics, paper, glass, and aluminium. The system comprises a small set of LEDs and one single broadband photodetector. All devices are controlled through low-cost and low-power electronics, and data are gathered and managed via a computer interface. The proposed system reaches accuracy levels as high as 94.3% when considering seven distinct materials and 97.0% when excluding the most difficult to classify, thus representing a valuable proof-of-concept for future system developments.
