PURPOSE To evaluate and compare the deliverability, positioning, stability, and effectiveness of aneurysm occlusion and the incidence of parent-artery thrombosis of two different types of platinum coils, using a canine carotid aneurysm model. METHODS 29 experimental canine carotid aneurysms (19 lateral, 6 bifurcation, and 4 terminal) were constructed and treated with complex-shaped fibered pl...

Most state-of-the-art approaches to action recognition rely on global representations either by concatenating local information in a long descriptor vector or by computing a single location independent histogram. This limits their performance in presence of occlusions and when running on multiple viewpoints. We propose a novel approach to providing robustness to both occlusions and viewpoint ch...
