WAVELET FRAMES WITH MATCHED MASKS
In the paper we design a Parseval wavelet frame with a compact support and many vanishing moments. The corresponding refinement mask approximates an arbitrary continuous periodic function $f$, $f(0)=1$. The refinable function has stable integer shifts.

Mask Wearing Detection Algorithm Based on Improved YOLOv3 in Complex Scenes [PDF]
The transmission of COVID-19 virus through respiratory droplets can be effectively prevented by correct mask wearing.However,complex factors in natural scenes including occlusion,crowds,and small-scale targets frequently affect the detection of mask ...

“The mask is not for you” : A framing analysis of pro- and anti-mask sentiment on Twitter
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, widespread adoption of facemasks has been recognized as a low-cost, simple public health intervention that can reduce the transmission of the virus. However, early in the pandemic significant public opposition emerged in the U.S. and other parts of the world.

3D Printed Mask Frames Improve the Inward Protection Efficiency of a Cloth Mask
Here, we show that improving the fit of a cloth mask using a low-cost 3D-printed frame significantly improves its inward protection efficiency for airborne particles known to transmit SARS-CoV-2. We found that a 3D-printed flexible frame (i.e., brace) increased the inward protection efficiency of a cotton-based cloth mask by 13-43% for particles ...
