Ecological Trap in the Nest: Human Hair Causes the Death of Breeding Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
As urbanization intensifies, an increasing number of bird species incorporate anthropogenic materials into their nests. This behavior may confer certain benefits but can also constitute an ecological trap, causing mortality through entanglement.

Cryogelation of Human Hair Keratins [PDF]

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, 2020
AbstractHuman hair keratins (HHK) are known for their biocompatibility and potential to regulate cell response, possibly due to the presence of the leucine‐aspartic‐valine cell adhesion and signaling motifs. Together with the abundance of cysteine residues in HHK, 3D HHK scaffolds are fabricated through cryogelation based on spontaneous disulfide ...

A Generative Model of Human Hair for Hair Sketching [PDF]

open access: yes2005 IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR'05), 2005
Human hair is a very complex visual pattern whose representation is rarely studied in the vision literature despite its important role in human recognition. In this paper, we propose a generative model for hair representation and hair sketching, which is far more compact than the physically based models in graphics. We decompose a color hair image into
