Medium Transmission Map Matters for Learning to Restore Real-World Underwater Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Underwater visual perception is essentially important for underwater exploration, archeology, ecosystem and so on. The low illumination, light reflections, scattering, absorption and suspended particles inevitably lead to the critically degraded underwater image quality, which causes great challenges on recognizing the objects from the underwater ...

Underwater Fish Detection with Weak Multi-Domain Supervision

open access: yes, 2019
Given a sufficiently large training dataset, it is relatively easy to train a modern convolution neural network (CNN) as a required image classifier. However, for the task of fish classification and/or fish detection, if a CNN was trained to detect or ...

Enhancing the Versatility of Photocrosslinkable Silk Fibroin Using an Eco‐Friendly Solvent

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Silk fibroin modified with photoreactive groups enables liquid‐to‐solid transitions under light, allowing precise structural control for biofabrication. Using a sustainable calcium chloride‐ethanol‐water solvent, a novel photofibroin (PF) is shown for light‐based manufacturing like 3D printing, forming cytocompatible hydrogels for regenerative medicine.

Enhancing Corrosion Resistance and Mechanical Strength of 3D‐Printed Iron Polylactic Acid for Marine Applications via Laser Surface Texturing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Laser surface texturing significantly improves the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength of 3D‐printed iron polylactic acid (Ir‐PLA) for marine applications. Optimal laser parameters reduce corrosion by 80% and enhance tensile strength by 25% and ductility by 15%.
