Weighted Census Transform for Feature Representation

Weighted Census Transform for Feature Representation
This paper presents a new visual feature representation method as a weighted census transform (WCT) based on modified census transform (MCT) and entropy information of training dataset. The proposed feature representation model can offer robustness to represent same visual images such as MCT feature and sensitivity to effectively classify different ...

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Gene signatures characterizing driver mutations in lung squamous carcinoma are predictive of the progression of pre‐cancer lesions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is more aggressive than lung adenocarcinoma, and is most often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Here, the authors evaluated gene expression data from LUSC tumors and came up with gene signatures for 34 genetic abnormalities whose expression changes throughout different precancerous stages. Several of these

Migration‐Associated Variation in Gastric Cancer Risk in the United States: Implications for Risk Stratification

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
This study provides contemporary, population‐based evidence that migration‐associated differences in gastric cancer risk, first described decades ago, remain stable, quantifiable, and prevention‐relevant in the United States. By integrating modern cancer registry data with formal trend analysis and conditional extrapolation, the authors show that ...

Microbiome and aging: Trajectories of microbiome age across human ecosystems and their systemic effects

iMeta, EarlyView.
Microbiome age (MA) has emerged as an innovative biomarker of biological aging, reflecting host aging trajectories through dynamic alterations in microbial composition, function, and host–microbe interactions across multiple body ecosystems. Diverse computational strategies—including traditional machine learning, deep learning, and multi‐omics ...

Unpacking early risks for peer victimization: A network analysis of early temperament and polygenic risk scores

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children who show difficult temperament are at risk of peer victimisation, which in turn associates with numerous negative outcomes later in life. We used network analysis to examine whether specific aspects of difficult temperament contributed to these associations, and whether the links were moderated by variations in genetic ...

Diverging perspectives on emerging mental health symptoms: Multi‐informant discrepancies and their associated determinants across the transition to adolescence in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The transition from childhood to adolescence is marked by significant developmental, social, and contextual changes that present practical challenges for the measurement of emerging mental health symptoms. This study explores transdiagnostic symptoms across three core dimensions from the Achenbach system of empirically based ...

Measurement of social and emotional wellbeing and mental health outcomes in first nations children: A systematic review

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background There is a critical lack of reliable, high‐quality epidemiological data on mental health and/or social and emotional wellbeing (SEWB) outcomes for First Nations children, partly, due to the limited availability of culturally valid assessment tools. This review aims to assess the cultural validity of mental health and SEWB assessment
