High-Speed Interception Multicopter Control by Image-based Visual Servoing [PDF]
In recent years, reports of illegal drones threatening public safety have increased. For the invasion of fully autonomous drones, traditional methods such as radio frequency interference and GPS shielding may fail. This paper proposes a scheme that uses an autonomous multicopter with a strapdown camera to intercept a maneuvering intruder UAV.

On the odderon intercept in perturbative QCD [PDF]
Arguments are presented for the odderon intercept being exactly equal to unity. A variational method is presented based on a complete system of one-gluon functions. For the odderon, the highest intercept calculated by this method is $1-(3\alpha_{s}/\pi)\,0.45$.

Cone-beam CT for Dental Radiography [PDF]
The cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technique was first inserted in dental imaging 15 years ago. Due to this technique 3D imaging in dentistry has been excessively changed. The purpose beyond using CBCT instead of computed tomography (CT) imaging is that CT can not be used in many cases in dentistry, in addition to the higher radiation and cost of
