Reexploring 5-methoxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (MICA) as a potential antidiabetic agent
Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity : Targets and Therapy, 2018 5-Methoxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (MICA) is a potent hypoglycemic agent that inhibits gluconeogenesis in the liver. It is also a well-known inhibitor of mitochondrial dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase. MICA was extensively studied in the 1960s and 1970s and

Pairwise-Covariance Multi-view Discriminant Analysis for Robust Cross-View Human Action Recognition
IEEE Access, 2021 Human action recognition (HAR) under different camera viewpoints is the most critical requirement for practical deployment. In this paper, we propose a novel method that leverages successful deep learning-based features for action representation and ...
