Flat Film: Strategies of Depthlessness in Pleasantville and La Haine

Film-Philosophy, 2018
In this essay I consider the device of depthlessness in film. I am interested in particular in the ways in which this device can determine, or at least raise questions about, the nature of the fictional world.

Analysis of fuel spray droplets with high-resolution image and depth of object field calibration

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2023
The atomization process of fuel spray injection in internal combustion engines affects the spray mixture formation process, the combustion characteristics, and the formation of toxic substances. Therefore, several optical measurement procedures have been

The Effects of Depth of Field on Subjective Evaluation of Aesthetic Appeal and Image Quality of Photographs

IEEE Access, 2020
Aesthetic appeal and image quality are two important features of photographs, which play the dominant role when people clean their albums. Currently, the objective image quality assessment has been documented very well whereas the objective aesthetic ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Distribution of the complex amplitude and intensity in a 3D scattering pattern formed by the optical system for an on-axis point object [PDF]

Компьютерная оптика, 2018
A quantitative evaluation of the depth of field of optical systems is given. Results of the calculation of the distribution of the complex amplitude and intensity in a three-dimensional scattering pattern formed by the optical system for an on-axis point

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Influence of Surface Position along the Working Range of Conoscopic Holography Sensors on Dimensional Verification of AISI 316 Wire EDM Machined Surfaces

Sensors, 2014
Conoscopic holography (CH) is a non-contact interferometric technique used for surface digitization which presents several advantages over other optical techniques such as laser triangulation.
