Perivascular Matrix Densification Dysregulates Angiogenesis and Activates Pro‐Inflammatory Endothelial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Perivascular matrix densification promotes the emergence of aberrant endothelial tip cells (ATECs) that invade and persist within fibrotic microenvironments. Using in vivo lineage tracing and a human microvessel model, this study shows that fibrous matrix cues destabilize VE‐cadherin–mediated junctions to gate TGF‐β signaling, inducing a pro ...

Photometric stereo endoscopy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2013
While color video endoscopy has enabled wide-field examination of the gastrointestinal tract, it often misses or incorrectly classifies lesions. Many of these missed lesions exhibit characteristic three-dimensional surface topographies. An endoscopic system that adds topographical measurements to conventional color imagery could therefore increase ...

Fibronectin1‐Expressing Subicular Circuits Selectively Govern the Retrieval of Novel Object Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibronectin 1 (FN1)‐expressing subicular subpopulations encode novel object preference and selectively govern retrieval of novel object recognition (NOR) via affecting excitability of entorhinal‐projecting circuit through large conductance Ca2+‐activated potassium (BK) channel. ABSTRACT Novel object recognition (NOR), referring to the cognitive ability

Deep Photometric Stereo Network with Multi-Scale Feature Aggregation

open access: yesSensors, 2020
We present photometric stereo algorithms robust to non-Lambertian reflection, which are based on a convolutional neural network in which surface normals of objects with complex geometry and surface reflectance are estimated from a given set of an ...

Nigra‐Subthalamic Dopaminergic Circuitry Modulates and Represents Distinct Pain Modality in Physiological and Pain States in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nigral dopaminergic (DA) neurons modulate and represent pain with a preference to a particular modality (mechanical) and laterality (contralateral), which are controlled by nigral GABAergic neurons. The pain modulation is mimicked by the nigro‐subthalamic projection and its downstream neurons, involving D2‐like receptors.

Dynamic Photometric Stereo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A new dynamic photometric stereo technique is presented, which facilitates the analysis of rapidly moving surfaces containing mixed two- and three-dimensional concomitant features. A new approach termed narrow infra-red photometric stereo (NIRPS) is described as an evolution of the existing photometric stereo (PS) technique.

Binocular Photometric Stereo [PDF]

open access: yesProcedings of the British Machine Vision Conference 2011, 2011
This paper considers the problem of computing scene depth from a stereo pair of cameras under a sequence of illumination directions. By integrating parallax and shading cues, we obtain both metric depth and fine surface details. Casting this problem into the filter flow framework [16], enables a convex formulation of the problem, and thus a globally ...

Classification of Metal-Deficient Dwarfs in the Vilnius Photometric System

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2003
Methods used for the quantitative classification of metal-deficient stars in the Vilnius photometric system are reviewed. We present a new calibration of absolute magnitudes for dwarfs and subdwarfs, based on Hipparcos parallaxes.
