Application of GANs in Gene Expression Data Augmentation
A generative adversarial network (GAN) is essentially a two-player game composed of a generator and a discriminator. The generator’s role is to create synthetic data, while the discriminator’s task is to distinguish between real and generated data. During the training process, the generator strives to produce data that the discriminator cannot differentiate from the real data, whereas the discriminator continually improves its ability to distinguish real from generated data. This adversarial training regimen imbues GANs with the capability to model complex data distributions and produce high-quality synthetic data. Notably, their application to gene expression data systems is a fascinating and rapidly growing focus area.

Machine Learning Methods for Stock Market Prediction
Stock market prediction models are developed with different goals. The primary focus of stock market prediction has been on forecasting the price of a share for a specific future period. The price of a share is a numerical value, and its variation over time is often treated as a time series in various studies.

Addiction and Spending in Gacha Games
Gacha games are the most dominant games on the mobile market. These are free-to-play games with a lottery-like system, where the user pays with in-game currency to enter a draw in order to obtain the character or item they want. If a player does not obtain what he hoped for, there is the option of paying with his own money for more draws, and this is the main way to monetize the Gacha game.

Audio–Tactile Feedback in Volumetric Music Video
With the reinvigoration of XR technology in general, the current market offers several innovative modes of music creativity in 3D computer-generated imagery (CGI) production environments that can be accessed via virtual reality (VR) head-mounted displays (HMDs). To facilitate multimodality in VR, audio-tactile haptic feedback in volumetric music videos can have a positive impact on user experience.

Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Diagnosis
Diabetic retinopathy is one of the abnormalities of the retina in which a diabetic patient suffers from severe vision loss due to an affected retina. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is the final and most critical stage of diabetic retinopathy. Abnormal and fragile blood vessels start to grow on the surface of the retina at this stage. It causes retinal detachment, which may lead to complete blindness in severe cases.

VR Social Skills Training in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Poor social skills in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are associated with reduced independence in daily life. Current interventions for improving the social skills of individuals with ASD fail to represent the complexity of real-life social settings and situations. Virtual reality (VR) may facilitate social skills training in social environments and situations similar to those in real life; however, more research is needed to elucidate aspects such as the acceptability, usability, and user experience of VR systems in ASD. Twenty-five participants with ASD attended a neuropsychological evaluation and three sessions of VR social skills training, which incorporated five social scenarios with three difficulty levels. Participants reported high acceptability, system usability, and user experience. Significant correlations were observed between performance in social scenarios, self-reports, and executive functions. Working memory and planning ability were significant predictors of the functionality level in ASD and the VR system’s perceived usability, respectively. Yet, performance in social scenarios was the best predictor of usability, acceptability, and functionality level. Planning ability substantially predicted performance in social scenarios, suggesting an implication in social skills. Immersive VR social skills training in individuals with ASD appears to be an appropriate service, but an errorless approach that is adaptive to the individual’s needs should be preferred.
