The paper introduces Duet, a hybrid neural relation understanding method for cardinality estimation. Duet addresses limitations of existing learned methods, such as high costs and scalability issues, by incorporating predicate information into an autoregressive model. Experiments demonstrate Duet's efficiency, accuracy, and scalability, even outperforming GPU-based methods on CPU.

This paper introduces an AI-driven decision support system for green hydrogen investment in Oman, specifically for the Duqm R3 auction. The system uses publicly available meteorological data to predict maintenance pressure on hydrogen infrastructure, creating a Maintenance Pressure Index (MPI). This tool supports regulatory oversight and operational decision-making by enabling temporal benchmarking against performance claims.

The paper introduces MedPromptX, a clinical decision support system using multimodal large language models (MLLMs), few-shot prompting (FP), and visual grounding (VG) for chest X-ray diagnosis, integrating imagery with EHR data. MedPromptX refines few-shot data dynamically for real-time adjustment to new patient scenarios and narrows the search area in X-ray images. The study introduces MedPromptX-VQA, a new visual question answering dataset, and demonstrates state-of-the-art performance with an 11% improvement in F1-score compared to baselines.

This paper proposes a smart dome model for mosques that uses AI to control dome movements based on weather conditions and overcrowding. The model utilizes Congested Scene Recognition Network (CSRNet) and fuzzy logic techniques in Python to determine when to open and close the domes to maintain fresh air and sunlight. The goal is to automatically manage dome operation based on real-time data, specifying the duration for which the domes should remain open each hour.

A new culturally inclusive and linguistically diverse dataset called Palm for Arabic LLMs is introduced, covering 22 Arab countries and featuring instructions in both Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and dialectal Arabic (DA) across 20 topics. The dataset was built through a year-long community-driven project involving 44 researchers from across the Arab world. Evaluation of frontier LLMs using the dataset reveals limitations in cultural and dialectal understanding, with some countries being better represented than others.

A proposed recognition system aims to identify missing persons, deceased individuals, and lost objects during the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages in Saudi Arabia. The system intends to leverage facial recognition and object identification to manage the large crowds expected in the coming decade, estimated to reach 20 million pilgrims. It will be integrated into the CrowdSensing system for crowd estimation, management, and safety.

This paper proposes a machine learning method for early detection and classification of date fruit diseases, which are economically important to countries like Saudi Arabia. The method uses a hybrid feature extraction approach combining L*a*b color features, statistical features, and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) texture features. Experiments using a dataset of 871 images achieved the highest average accuracy using Random Forest (RF), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Fuzzy Decision Trees (FDT) classifiers.

This paper introduces a new Single Domain Generalization (SDG) method called ConDiSR for medical image classification, using channel-wise contrastive disentanglement and reconstruction-based style regularization. The method is evaluated on multicenter histopathology image classification, achieving a 1% improvement in average accuracy compared to state-of-the-art SDG baselines. Code is available at https://github.com/BioMedIA-MBZUAI/ConDiSR.
