Raising public awareness on anthropogenic underwater noise by means of playful activities and serious games

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication
Anthropogenic underwater noise can seriously affect the marine environment and species. Although great progress has been made both from a normative and scientific point of view, public perception of this hazard is very limited.

Emotion Potentiates Response Activation and Inhibition in Masked Priming

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012
Previous studies have shown that emotion can have two-fold effects on perception. At the object-level, emotional stimuli benefit from a stimulus-specific boost in visual attention at the relative expense of competing stimuli. At the visual feature-level,

Fully Convolutional Networks for Automatically Generating Image Masks to Train Mask R-CNN [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
This paper proposes a novel automatically generating image masks method for the state-of-the-art Mask R-CNN deep learning method. The Mask R-CNN method achieves the best results in object detection until now, however, it is very time-consuming and laborious to get the object Masks for training, the proposed method is composed by a two-stage design, to ...

An investigation into the feasibility and efficacy of stereotactic radiosurgery for 1–3 cm single brain lesions on the ring‐mounted Halcyon LINAC

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose An evaluation of the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of the Halcyon ring delivery system (RDS) for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment to relatively small (1–3 cm) brain lesions. Methods After completing the extensive in‐house quality assurance checks including Winston–Lutz test and independent dose verification via MD Anderson ...

Masking strategies to avoid the boar taint in meat products [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2022
Surgery to castrate male pigs can be substituted by the manufacture of "entire males". However, the meat of whole male animals may have an unpleasant sexual odor, i.e. - boar taint.

Ensuring Confidentiality of Geocoded Health Data: Assessing Geographic Masking Strategies for Individual-Level Data

open access: yesAdvances in Medicine, 2014
Public health datasets increasingly use geographic identifiers such as an individual's address. Geocoding these addresses often provides new insights since it becomes possible to examine spatial patterns and associations. Address information is typically

Unsupervised non‐small cell lung cancer tumor segmentation using cycled generative adversarial network with similarity‐based discriminator

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Tumor segmentation is crucial for lung disease diagnosis and treatment. Most existing deep learning‐based automatic segmentation methods rely on manually annotated data for network training. Purpose This study aims to develop an unsupervised tumor segmentation network smic‐GAN by using a similarity‐driven generative adversarial ...

Classes of Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Algorithms for Dependable Distributed Systems. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
This thesis concentrates on the design of new algorithms for fault-tolerant systems based on system-level hardware masking redundancy. It is argued that any system in which a reliability improvement of at least a factor 100 is required should be based on

Determining the best mathematical model for implementation of non-pharmaceutical interventions

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences and Engineering
At the onset of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in early 2020, only non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) were available to stem the spread of the infection.
