Intensity Profiles in Active Shape Model
Active shape model is a deformable model which has proven very successful results in the field of image segmentation. The success of ASM model lies in its ability to find the right positions of all landmark points which define the object shape. Intensity profiles are an important part of the Active Shape Models (ASM) which help steer and optimize ...

Self-organization and shape change by active polarization in nematic droplets
Active forces drive critical biological processes such as spontaneous organization and shape change during cell division. Here, we present a minimal hydrodynamic model leading to a unified description of self-organization and division in nematic droplets

On the influence of cell shape on dynamic reaction-diffusion polarization patterns.
The distribution of signaling molecules following mechanical or chemical stimulation of a cell defines cell polarization, with regions of high active Cdc42 at the front and low active Cdc42 at the rear.

Hand Gesture Extraction by Active Shape Models [PDF]
The paper applied active statistical model for hand gesture extraction and recognition. After the hand contours are found out by a real-time segmenting and tracking system, a set of feature points (Landmarks) are marked out automatically and manually along the contour.

ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...

Glaucoma is an eye disease which is one of the most common causes of blindness. Accurate optic disc (OD) and optic cup (OC) segmentation play a critical role for detecting glaucoma. Considering that the existing approaches can't effectively integrate the

ABSTRACT Cup‐like nuclei are a distinctive morphological feature observed in certain cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We provide evidence that they characterize DUX4/ERG ALL independently of IKZF1 deletion and reveal marked mitochondrial accumulation in this ALL subset.

ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive
