Non-uniform Motion Deblurring for Camera Shakes

This paper presents a novel blind motion deblurring algorithm for dealing with non-uniform motion blurs caused by camera shakes. Conventional motion deblurring algorithms assume the blur can be described by a uniform point spread function (PSF). However, this assumption is typically invalid in practice. We exploit a new representation of motion blurs which models the blur effects of camera shak...

Protein Shakes: An Unusual Cause of Gastric Phytobezoar

A 35-year-old healthy man presented with gradually progressive abdominal pain and distention, nausea, vomiting, early satiety, and 4.5-kg weight gain over 3-4 months. His routine blood work, thyroid panel, ultrasound, and abdominal/pelvic CT were unremarkable. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed a large gastric phytobezoar extending from gastric fundus to antrum (Figure 1). The patient di...

Simulated viewpoint jitter shakes sensory conflict accounts of vection.

Sensory conflict has been used to explain the way we perceive and control our self-motion, as well as the aetiology of motion sickness. However, recent research on simulated viewpoint jitter provides a strong challenge to one core prediction of these theories -- that increasing sensory conflict should always impair visually induced illusions of self-motion (known as vection). These studies show...

IL-27 shakes up the establishment of ectopic lymphoid structures

1754 INSIGHTS | The Journal of Experimental Medicine The establishment of complex behaviors, memory, and language has long fascinated humanity. It is, after all, what makes us human. Understanding this complexity presents one of the most significant challenges in biomedical research. Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders often characterized by repetitive a...
