A dynamic model for real-time tracking of hands in bimanual movements [PDF]
The problem of hand tracking in the presence of occlusion is addressed. In bimanual movements the hands tend to be synchronised effortlessly. Different aspects of this synchronisation are the basis of our research to track the hands.

Antimicrobial Effect of Titanium Hydroxyapatite in Denture Base Resin
In the current study, we investigated the antimicrobial effect of titanium hydroxyapatite (TiHA), a photo-oxidizing organic material, in denture base resin on single-species biofilms formed by laboratory bacteria and on multispecies biofilms formed by ...

Entropy Projection Curved Gabor with Random Forest and SVM for Face Recognition [PDF]
In this work, we propose a workflow for face recognition under occlusion using the entropy projection from the curved Gabor filter, and create a representative and compact features vector that describes a face.

Hyperglycaemia does not increase perfusion deficits after focal cerebral ischaemia in male Wistar rats [PDF]
Background: Hyperglycaemia is associated with a worse outcome in acute ischaemic stroke patients; yet the pathophysiological mechanisms of hyperglycaemia-induced damage are poorly understood.

Analysis of Titania Nanosheet Adsorption Behavior Using a Quartz Crystal Microbalance Sensor
We investigated the adsorption of albumin and fibronectin on a titania nanosheet- (TNS-) modified quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor. A Ti QCM sensor was fabricated by reactive magnetron sputtering.

New Avenue for Treatment of Dentinal Hypersensitivity Assisted with Tekscan a Diagnostic Tool
Background: Occlusion is dynamic and plays an important role in the functioning of the stomatognathic system. Disturbance in one of the components of the stomatognathic system may result in hypersensitivity of teeth, orofacial pain, migraine, and ...
