ILLUMINATION ENHANCEMENT OF NIGHTTIME IMAGES USING A REGULATED SINGLE SCALE RETINEX ALGORITHM

Jordanian Journal of Computers and Information Technology
People are active during the nighttime and capture many photos. Due to the low-light nature of the environment, captured images tend to appear dimmed with imbalanced illumination, low contrast, noise, and a lack of vibrant colors.

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.

SPHINX31 acts as a SRPK1 inhibitor targeting the ATR/DNA‐PKcs/CHK1 replicative checkpoint to inhibit cell growth in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.

A Two‐Stage Questionnaire and Actigraphy Screening for iRBD in a Multicenter Retrospective Cohort

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid‐eye‐movement sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal marker of synucleinopathies. However, most cases remain undiagnosed due to the insufficient predictive value of questionnaires and limited access to confirmatory video‐polysomnography. We assessed a two‐stage screening strategy combining a brief questionnaire on rapid‐

Impact of Satellite Sounding Data on Virtual Visible Imagery Generation Using Conditional Generative Adversarial Network

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
The visible band of satellite sensors is of limited use during the night due to a lack of solar reflection. This study presents an improved conditional generative adversarial networks (CGANs) model to generate virtual nighttime visible imagery using ...
