<span>Traumatic brain injuries are significant effects of disability and loss life. Physicians employ computed tomography (CT) images to observe the trauma measure its severity for diagnosis treatment. Due overlap hemorrhage normal tissues, segmentation methods sometimes lead false results. The study is more challenging unitize AI field collect by involving patient datasets employing CT s...

Abstract The copy-move forgery refers to the copying and pasting of a region original image into target same image, which represents typical tampering method with characteristics easy high-quality tampering. existing single feature-based methods detection have certain shortcomings, such as high false alarm rate, low robustness, accuracy. To address these this paper proposes an improved two-stag...

We provide a detailed evaluation of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters of the cis- and trans-isomers of azobenzene (AB). For determining the NMR parameters, such as proton-proton and proton-nitrogen J-couplings and chemical shifts, we compared NMR spectra of three different isotopomers of AB: the doubly 15N labeled azobenzene, 15N,15N'-AB, and two partially deuterated AB isotopomers wi...

Glaucoma is a chronic eye disease in which the optic nerve is progressively damaged. It is the second leading cause of blindness and is predicted to affect around 80 million people by 2020. Development of the disease leads to loss of vision which occurs gradually over a long period of time. Since it is very difficult to cure the disease at severe stage, it can be detected initially by using pro...

Multi-temporal remote sensing images classification is very useful for monitoring the land cover changes. Traditional approaches in this field mainly face to limited labelled samples and spectral drift of image information. With spatial resolution improvement, “pepper and salt” appears and classification results will be effected when the pixelwise classification algorithms are applied to highre...

Viability of Listeriamonocytogenes was monitored on frankfurters formulated with or without potassium lactate and sodium diacetate at a ratio of ca. 7:1 and treated with lauric arginate (LAE; 22 or 44ppm) using the Sprayed Lethality in Container (SLIC(R)) delivery method. Without antimicrobials, pathogen numbers remained relatively constant at ca. 3.3logCFU/package for ca. 30d, but then increas...

OBJECTIVE To determine damage presence and predictors factors for its appearance in a cohort of cuban patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study included 80 patients presenting with SLE seen in Rheumatology Service of "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Clinical Surgical Hospital in Havana City, Cuba. Damage was assessed using The Systemic Lupus Inte...

Classification techniques play an important role in the analysis of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images. PolSAR image classification is widely used in the fields of information extraction and scene interpretation or is performed as a preprocessing step for further applications. However, inherent speckle noise of PolSAR images hinders its application on further classification. ...

In this paper, we propose a fast deep learning method for object saliency detection using convolutional neural networks. In our approach, we use a gradient descent method to iteratively modify the input images based on the pixel-wise gradients to reduce a pre-defined cost function, which is defined to measure the class-specific objectness and clamp the class-irrelevant outputs to maintain image...

A couple of DNA ligation-independent cloning (LIC) methods have been reported to meet various requirements in metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. The principle of LIC is the assembly of multiple overlapping DNA fragments by single-stranded (ss) DNA overlaps annealing. Here we present a method to generate single-stranded DNA overlaps based on Nicking Endonucleases (NEases) for LIC, the ...
