Anisotropic Diagrams: Labelle Shewchuk approach revisited

F. Labelle and J. Shewchuk have proposed a discrete definition of anisotropic Voronoi diagrams. These diagrams are parametrized by a metric field. Under mild hypotheses on the metric field, such Voronoi diagrams can be refined so that their dual is a triangulation, with elements shaped according to the specified anisotropic metric field. We propose an alternative view of the construction of the...

Avancées En Tomographie Optique Plein Champ Pour Applications Cliniques Et Biologie Du Développement Mme Bourg-heckly, Geneviève Advances of Full-field Optical Coherence Tomography (ffoct) for Mme Bourg-heckly, Geneviève

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is now an established technique for visualizing the internal morphology of the eye. In the last decade, the aim has been to achieve similar results in highly scattering tissues. One limitation of previous studies with OCT has been the low resolution compared to the gold standard of histology. Full-field optical coherence tomography (FFOCT), a variant of OCT al...

We have adapted to RNA molecules the ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction (LMPCR) procedure of genomic sequencing [Mueller, P. R. & Wold, B. (1989) Science 246, 780-786]. This new procedure, the reverse ligation-mediated PCR (RLPCR), is sufficiently sensitive to allow "in vivo" footprinting of minor RNA species. It is based on the ligation of an RNA linker of known sequence to every 5' e...
