متن کاملTranslational environmental biology: cell biology informing conservation.
Typically, findings from cell biology have been beneficial for preventing human disease. However, translational applications from cell biology can also be applied to conservation efforts, such as protecting coral reefs. Recent efforts to understand the cell biological mechanisms maintaining coral health such as innate immunity and acclimatization have prompted new developments in conservation. ...
متن کاملUrban Landscape Classification System Using Airborne LiDAR
The classification of urban landscape in aerial LiDAR point clouds can potentially improve the quality of largescale 3D urban models, as well as increase the breadth of objects that can be detected and recognized in urban environments. In this paper, we introduce a multi-category classification system for aerial LiDAR point clouds. We propose the use of a cascade of binary classifiers for label...
