Don’t See the Dwellings for the Trees: Quantifying the Effect of Tree Growth on Multi-temporal Dwelling Extraction in a Refugee Camp [PDF]
Automated and visual approaches for the monitoring of refugee or IDP camps based on satellite data are very important as independent information sources, especially for insecure and remote areas. Nevertheless, monitoring based on satellite data always has a certain degree of uncertainty, e.g. due to data quality, complexity of the area of investigation,

Extracting Dwell Time Sequences from Processive Molecular Motor Data [PDF]
Processive molecular motors, such as kinesin, myosin, or dynein, convert chemical energy into mechanical energy by hydrolyzing ATP. The mechanical energy is used for moving in discrete steps along the cytoskeleton and carrying a molecular load. Single-molecule recordings of motor position along a substrate polymer appear as a stochastic staircase ...

Transferable instance segmentation of dwellings in a refugee camp - integrating CNN and OBIA
The availability and usage of optical very high spatial resolution (VHR) satellite images for efficient support of refugee/IDP (internally displaced people) camp planning and humanitarian aid are growing. In this research, an integrated approach was used

Performance of a demand controlled mechanical extract ventilation system for dwellings [PDF]
The main aim of ventilation is to guarantee a good indoor air quality, related to the energy consumed for heating and fan(s). Active or passive heat recovery systems seem to focus on the reduction of heating consumption at the expense of fan electricity consumption and maintenance.

Prolonged lead dwell time and lead burden predict bailout transfemoral lead extraction [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundTransvenous lead extraction (TLE) may be performed by superior approach using the original implant vein or via a femoral approach; however, limited comparative data exists. We compare outcomes between femoral versus nonfemoral TLE approaches and determine predictors of bailout transfemoral lead extraction in patients undergoing ...
