Genotyping Contemporary Captive and Historical Wild Western Lowland Gorillas Indicates Captive Breeding Is Maintaining Genetic Diversity in a Critically Endangered Primate

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Captive populations of threatened species risk losing genetic diversity over time. We evaluated the genetic status of contemporary captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) at Howletts and Port Lympne and compared this with specimens from a historical wild population.

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

DiskScissors: Cutting Arbitrary‐Topology Solids for Bijective Mapping

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract An algorithm for cutting solid objects in a topology‐controlled manner is presented. Concretely, given a loop on the object boundary, a disk‐topology cut surface bounded by the loop is constructed in the interior. In contrast to various previous approaches, both disk topology and conformance to the prescribed loop are ensured by construction ...

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...

Survey on Visualization of Information Diffusion over Networks

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Information Diffusion (ID) describes how a value (e.g., a pathogen, a rumor, a packet) spreads through an underlying “medium” network of elements (e.g., a social or computer network). Understanding the information diffusion process is essential to predicting trends, controlling misinformation, and enhancing decision‐making as well as ...

FaceIt: Real‐Time On‐Device Identity‐Preserving Portrait Animation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
A real‐time, on‐device algorithm for animating a single portrait image using detailed facial expressions and motions from a driving video achieving visual quality that can outperform even techniques with significantly higher computational overhead. Abstract Recently, significant progress has been made in generating expressive and temporally coherent ...

Inhibition of Ornithine Decarboxylase 1 Mitigates Denervation‐Induced Muscle Atrophy by Suppressing Proteolysis and Preserving Muscle Stem Cell Homeostasis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Polyamine metabolism is innervation responsive and involved in denervation‐induced muscle atrophy. Inhibition of polyamine metabolism attenuates muscle atrophy by restraining proteolysis and preserving MuSCs homeostasis. Denervation‐induced activation of FAP‐derived FGF7 drives premature MuSCs activation, while DFMO suppresses this paracrine cue to ...

Behavioural Determinants of Post‐Brushing Dental Plaque Levels: A Video‐Based Analysis

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Toothbrushing remains the most widely practiced method for dental plaque removal. However, evidence‐based guidance on optimal brushing method, duration, toothbrush bristle wear, and dentifrice quantity is still insufficient. This study aimed to identify behavioural factors associated with post‐brushing dental plaque levels using ...

Modular training resources for bioimage analysis

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Modern microscopy enables us to measure structural and dynamical properties of many biological processes and is therefore an indispensable research tool. However, the amount and complexity of the produced imaging data is steadily increasing.

Photochemical effects of Mars‐like UV irradiation on carboxylic acids in carbonaceous chondrites and expectations for abiotic background organics on Mars

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract In the search for life on Mars, understanding the origin of preserved organics is critical. Expected sources include exogenous delivery, endogenous synthesis, and potentially life. Environmental processing by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation can alter these organics, obscuring hallmarks of their origin. To deconvolve these effects, we conducted an
