Keypoint induced distance profiles for visual recognition

, 2009
We show that histograms of keypoint descriptor distances can make useful features for visual recognition. Descriptor distances are often exhaustively computed between sets of keypoints, but besides finding the k-smallest distances the structure of the ...

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

High-Order Circular Derivative Pattern for Image Representation and Recognition [PDF]

, 2010
Micropattern based image representation and recognition, e.g. Local Binary Pattern (LBP), has been proved successful over the past few years due to its advantages of illumination tolerance and computational efficiency. However, LBP only encodes the first-

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

PRRDB: A comprehensive database of Pattern-Recognition Receptors and their ligands

BMC Genomics, 2008
Background Recently in a number of studies, it has been demonstrated that the innate immune system doesn't merely acts as the first line of defense but provides critical signals for the development of specific adaptive immune response.

Establishing Point Correspondence Using Multidirectional Binary Pattern for Face Recognition [PDF]

, 2008
This paper presents a new Multidirectional Binary Pattern (MBP) for face recognition. Different from most Local Binary Pattern (LBP) related approaches which cluster LBP occurrences from whole image or partitioned subimage patches and use single or ...

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Pattern-recognition receptors and recognition of pathogens

Journal of Medicine and Life Science, 2009
The mammalian host has evolved innate immune strategies to detect and respond to rapidly to diverse group of microorganisms. Microbial recognition is achieved by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) such as toll-like receptors (TLRs) and Nod-like receptor (NLRs).

Mid-level Deep Pattern Mining∗

, 2015
Mid-level visual element discovery aims to find clusters of image patches that are both representative and discrimi-native. In this work, we study this problem from the prospec-tive of pattern mining while relying on the recently popular-ized ...
