REGION MERGING VIA GRAPH-CUTS

Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011
In this paper, we discuss the use of graph-cuts to merge the regions of the watershed transform optimally. Watershed is a simple, intuitive and efficient way of segmenting an image.

Optimally Merging Precipitation to Minimize Land Surface Modeling Errors

Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, 2010
Abstract This paper introduces a new method to improve land surface model skill by merging different available precipitation datasets, given that an accurate land surface parameter ground truth is available. Precipitation datasets are merged with the objective of improving terrestrial water and energy cycle simulation skill, unlike most ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Multi-response optimization of wire electrical discharge machining parameters for enhanced machinability of Ti-6Al-4 V alloy

Discover Mechanical Engineering
Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) is widely used for machining titanium alloys such as Ti-6Al-4 V. However, comprehensive multi-response optimisation incorporating a larger set of input and output variables remains limited. This study presents a

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Interpolation and optimal hitting for complete minimal surfaces with finite total curvature [PDF]

Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations, 2019
We prove that, given a compact Riemann surface $Σ$ and disjoint finite sets $\varnothing\neq E\subsetΣ$ and $Λ\subsetΣ$, every map $Λ\to \mathbb{R}^3$ extends to a complete conformal minimal immersion $Σ\setminus E\to \mathbb{R}^3$ with finite total curvature.

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.
