Phloroglucinol inhibits human ureteral contractions via activation of cAMP‐PKA pathway

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Phloroglucinol is used to treat renal colic, especially when non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs are contraindicated. This study aimed to clarify its mechanism by examining effects on human ureteral contractility and underlying signalling pathways. Experimental Approach Urinary levels of neurokinin A (NKA), substance P

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Mesh Processing Non‐Meshes via Neural Displacement Fields

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Mesh processing pipelines are mature, but adapting them to newer non‐mesh surface representations—which enable fast rendering with compact file size—requires costly meshing or transmitting bulky meshes, negating their core benefits for streaming applications.
