Accurate Anisotropic Fast Marching for Diffusion-Based Geodesic Tractography

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biomedical Imaging, 2008
Using geodesics for inferring white matter fibre tracts from diffusion-weighted MR data is an attractive method for at least two reasons: (i) the method optimises a global criterion, and hence is less sensitive to local perturbations such as noise or ...

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

Region Information-Based ROI Extraction by Multi-Initial Fast Marching Algorithm

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004
Region of interest (ROI) plays an important role in medical image analysis. In this paper, a new approach to ROI extraction based on the curve evolution is proposed.

General Path Planning Methodology for Leader-Follower Robot Formations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2013
This paper describes a robust algorithm for mobile robot formations based on the Voronoi Fast Marching path planning method. This is based on the propagation of a wave throughout the model of the environment, the wave expanding faster as the wave's ...

Free boundary problems describing two-dimensional pulse recycling and motion in semiconductors

open access: yes, 2003
An asymptotic analysis of the Gunn effect in two-dimensional samples of bulk n-GaAs with circular contacts is presented. A moving pulse far from contacts is approximated by a moving free boundary separating regions where the electric potential solves a ...

Assessing Mesoscale Heterogeneities in Hard Carbon Electrodes Through Deep Learning‐Assisted FIB‐SEM Characterization, Manufacturing and Electrochemical Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A combination of discrete and finite element method models for the current collector deformation and electrochemical performance analysis, respectively. The models are calibrated and validated with electrochemical and imaging data of hard carbon electrodes. These electrodes were manufactured with different parameters (slurry solid contents of 35 and 40

Determining candidate polyp morphology from CT colonography using a level-set method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper we propose a level-set segmentation for polyp candidates in Computer Tomography Colongraphy (CTC). Correct classification of the candidate polyps into polyp and non-polyp is, in most cases, evaluated using shape features.

Competition Policy and Agribusiness in the Biden Administration

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Biden Administration pursued a set of ambitious competition policy initiatives in agriculture and agribusiness, primarily aimed at livestock and poultry supply chains, farm inputs, and food retailing. The initiatives included expanded antitrust enforcement; new US Department of Agriculture (USDA) contract regulations requiring poultry ...

A Fast Level Set Method for Synthetic Aperture Radar Ocean Image Segmentation

open access: yesSensors, 2009
Segmentation of high noise imagery like Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images is still one of the most challenging tasks in image processing. While level set, a novel approach based on the analysis of the motion of an interface, can be used to address ...
