Background: Zinc has important effects on the human health, especially on the structural and functional activities of immune system. This study was carried out to examine the in vitro cytotoxic effects of Zinc on the Raji cell line. Materials and methods: The cell line was exposed to different concentrations of Zinc followed by incubation (37◦C, 5% Co2) at various time points (12 to 72 hrs). ...

Several methods of automated line simplification exist, but most involve parameters selected arbitrarily or heuristically, with little or no reference to the scale change between original data and generalized output. Also, while routines such as the Douglas-Peucker algorithm achieve simplified line correlates by retention of characteristic points from the input line, little analysis has been de...

Helping vehicles estimate vanishing points (VPs) in traffic environments has considerable value the field of autonomous driving. It multiple unaddressed issues such as refining extracted lines and removing spurious VP candidates, which suffers from low accuracy high computational cost a complex environment. To address these two issues, we present this study new model to VPs monocular camera. Li...

We analyze triply degenerate nodal points [or triple (TPs) for short] in energy bands of crystalline solids. Specifically, we focus on spinless band structures, i.e., when spin-orbit coupling is negligible, and consider TPs formed along high-symmetry lines the momentum space by a crossing three transforming according to 1D 2D irreducible corepresentation (ICR) little co-group. The result comple...
