Level Set Methods for Stochastic Discontinuity Detection in Nonlinear Problems
, 2019 Stochastic physical problems governed by nonlinear conservation laws are challenging due to solution discontinuities in stochastic and physical space. In this paper, we present a level set method to track discontinuities in stochastic space by solving a ...

Active Contours Driven by Local and Global Region-Based Information for Image Segmentation
IEEE Access, 2020 Intensity inhomogeneity and noise are two major parts in image segmentation. Aiming at these problems, this work proposes a novel hybrid active contour method which combines local and global statistical information into an improved signed pressure force (

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

Underwater Object Segmentation Integrating Transmission and Saliency Features
IEEE Access, 2019 Various types of knowledge and features have been explored for level set-based segmentation. On the ground, the prior knowledge and carefully-designed features perform well to identify the foreground-background contrast, which improves the performance of

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.
