Traditional visual place recognition (VPR), usually using standard cameras, is easy to fail due glare or high-speed motion. By contrast, event cameras have the advantages of low latency, high temporal resolution, and dynamic range, which can deal with above issues. Nevertheless, are prone failure in motionless scenes, while still provide appearance information this case. Thus, exploiting comple...

Performance of structures during recent earthquakes shows that the effect of vertical component of earthquake (VCE) could be considered as one of the main causes of bridges collapse. In most of bridge design codes, for seismic analysis of bridges, VCE is not taken into account or a distinguished method isn’t presented for assessment of VCE. In the present work, the effect of VCE on two existing...

Nonlinear state estimation and fusion tracking are always hot research topics for information processing. Compared to linear fusion tracking, nonlinear fusion tracking takes many new problems and challenges. Especially, the performances of fusion tracking, based on different nonlinear filters, are obviously different. The conventional nonlinear filters include extended Kalman filter (EKF), unsc...

In pointfree topology, a continuous real function on a frame L is a map L(R) → L from the frame of reals into L. The discussion of continuous real functions with possibly infinite values can be easily brought to pointfree topology by replacing the frame L(R) with the frame of extended reals L ( R ) (i.e. the pointfree counterpart of the extended real line R = R ∪ {±∞}). One can even deal with a...

BACKGROUND To evaluate the effect of spondylolisthesis on lumbar lordosis on the OSI (Jackson; Orthopaedic Systems Inc.) frame. Restoration of lumbar lordosis is important for maintaining sagittal balance. Physiologic lumbar lordosis has to be gained by intraoperative prone positioning with a hip extension and posterior instrumentation technique. There are some debates about changing lumbar lor...

An approach is presented to multi-expert’s opinions combination based on the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. In the method, we use multi-expert’s knowledge as evidence, the possible value of weight as frame of discernment, expert’s evaluation to a weight on frame of discernment as basic probability assignment, and use D-S rule combining to give fusion basic probability assignment m. Finally, t...

Background and Aims: Since the produced recombinant proteins by molecular genetics techniques commonly have some limitations in the application, chimeric protein are introduced. Chimeric proteins have found widespread application for the study of protein folding, structure stability, function and immunogenisity. Methods: According to the known Immunomodulatory effect and structure of HSP70 mole...

For tracking accuracy of moving target in wide-area video surveillance system is not high, a tracking and recognition algorithm based on multi-source moving target is proposed. The fusion algorithm preliminarily determines candidate moving target by frame difference algorithm, and then matches candidate target with primary template by SIFT algorithm and treats the matching result as initial pos...

Enzyme-free cloning (EFC) can rapidly produce an in-frame fusion gene with multiple fragments. To practically apply EFC, we investigated the extent and sequence of complementary staggered overhangs necessary to direct self-assembly of multiple fragments as well as a size limitation of the constructed DNA molecule. Six-base pair overhangs with 50% GC content were sufficient to direct self-assemb...
