Thus, the Taylor Fire Hawk optimization (TFHO) is implemented here for effective segmentation and classification. The TFHO is the merging of the Taylor series and Fire Hawk Optimizer (FHO). The de-noising is accomplished by the adaptive median filter, and the segmentation is carried out using M-Net, which has been trained by TFHO.

Recent endeavors have introduced fusion-based strategies to refine segmentation accuracy, yet these methods often prove inadequate. In response, we introduce the Parallel-Way framework to surmount these obstacles. Our approach integrates MRI and PET data for a holistic analysis. Initially, we enhance image quality by employing noise reduction, bias field correction, and adaptive thresholding, leveraging Improved Kalman Filter (IKF), Expectation Maximization (EM), and Improved Vibe Algorithm (IVib), respectively. Subsequently, we conduct multi-modality image fusion through the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTWCT) to amalgamate data from both modalities. Following fusion, we extract pertinent features using the Advanced Capsule Network (ACN) and reduce feature dimensionality via Multi-objective Diverse Evolution-based selection. Tumor segmentation is then executed utilizing the Twin Vision Transformer with dual attention mechanism. Implemented our Parallel-Way framework which exhibits heightened model performance.

RAW264.7 cells were subjected to radiofrequency exposure at three distinct power densities: 50 µW/cm<sup>2</sup>, 150 µW/cm<sup>2</sup>, and 450 µW/cm<sup>2</sup>. The results showed that, among the three dosage levels, exposure to 150 µW/cm<sup>2</sup> of radiofrequency radiation significantly reduced the proliferation capacity of RAW264.7 cells. RF exposure at three power densities resulted in significant increases in the level of osteoclast apoptosis and notable decreases in osteoclast differentiation. Notably, the most pronounced effects on apoptosis, differentiation in RAW 264.7 cells were observed at the 150 µW/cm<sup>2</sup> power density. These effects were accompanied by concurrent decreases in mRNA and protein levels of osteoclast-specific genes, including RANK, NFATc1, and TRACP. Furthermore, radiofrequency exposure at power density of 150 µW/cm<sup>2</sup> induced a significant decrease in cytoplasmic NF-κB protein levels while increasing its nuclear fraction, thereby counteracting the effects of RANKL-induced NF-κB activation. These data suggest that radiofrequency exerts inhibitory properties on RANKL-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity, subsequently indirectly suppressing the expression of downstream NF-κB target genes, such as NFATc1 and TRACP.
