Finding Temporally Consistent Occlusion Boundaries in Videos using Geometric Context [PDF]
We present an algorithm for finding temporally consistent occlusion boundaries in videos to support segmentation of dynamic scenes. We learn occlusion boundaries in a pairwise Markov random field (MRF) framework. We first estimate the probability of an spatio-temporal edge being an occlusion boundary by using appearance, flow, and geometric features ...

Robustness of Object Recognition under Extreme Occlusion in Humans and Computational Models [PDF]
Most objects in the visual world are partially occluded, but humans can recognize them without difficulty. However, it remains unknown whether object recognition models like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can handle real-world occlusion. It is also a question whether efforts to make these models robust to constant mask occlusion are effective for

The inhibitory effect of crude water extract of Musa sapientum inflorescence on Streptococcus mutans [PDF]
Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) has virulence factors involved in the pathogenesis of dental caries. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of the crude water extracts from Musa sapientum inflorescence (MSI water extract) on S.

Background An oral appliance (OA) can alleviate upper airway obstruction by pulling the mandible forward during sleep. While a large mandibular advancement with an OA decreases the number of apnea and hypopnea events, long‐term use may cause side effects,

Orthodontics and occlusion [PDF]
The discipline of orthodontics is directed towards alteration of the occlusion of the teeth and the relationships of the jaws. It is therefore somewhat surprising to find that there is little scientific evidence to support any of the concepts that suggest occlusal goals for orthodontic treatment.
