SNeRV: Spectra-preserving Neural Representation for Video [PDF]
Neural representation for video (NeRV), which employs a neural network to parameterize video signals, introduces a novel methodology in video representations. However, existing NeRV-based methods have difficulty in capturing fine spatial details and motion patterns due to spectral bias, in which a neural network learns high-frequency (HF) components at

A basic review on the inferior alveolar nerve block techniques
Anesthesia Essays and Researches, 2014 The inferior alveolar nerve block is the most common injection technique used in dentistry and many modifications of the conventional nerve block have been recently described in the literature.

Making a swim central pattern generator out of latent parabolic bursters [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We study the rhythmogenesis of oscillatory patterns emerging in network motifs composed of inhibitory coupled tonic spiking neurons represented by the Plant model of R15 nerve cells. Such motifs are argued to be used as building blocks for a larger central pattern generator network controlling swim locomotion of sea slug Melibe leonina.

Proximal Planar Cech Nerves. An Approach to Approximating the Shapes of Irregular, Finite, Bounded Planar Regions [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 This article introduces proximal Cech nerves and Cech complexes, restricted to finite, bounded regions $K$ of the Euclidean plane. A Cech nerve is a collection of intersecting balls. A Cech complex is a collection of nerves that cover $K$. Cech nerves are proximal, provided the nerves are close to each other, either spatially or descriptively.

A randomized prospective comparative study of nerve stimulator and ultrasonogram in popliteal sciatic nerve block for ankle and foot surgeries [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Regional blocks in the field of anaesthesia were done traditionally with paraesthesia technique. To overcome the demerits with paraesthesia technique, nerve locator was applied for nerve blocks.
