Correlates of calcaneal quantitative ultrasound parameters in patients with diabetes: the study on the assessment of determinants of muscle and bone strength abnormalities in diabetes [PDF]

, 2017
OBJECTIVE: Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) provides an estimate of bone mineral density (BMD) and also evaluates bone quality, which has been related to increased fracture risk in people with diabetes.

Fully Inkjet‐Printed Organic Electrochemical Transistors: A Path Toward All‐Organic Electronics

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Fully printed organic electrochemical transistors eliminate the metal electrodes used in conventional printed organic electronics. This work demonstrates the state of the art in three applications using PBFDO and PEDOT:PSS materials: a single‐material strain sensor for real‐time detection of finger flexion, an ion sensor for monitoring aqueous NaCl ...

Bossa Nova: The Reinvention and Reinvigoration of Samba in the 1950s

Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya, 2013
In a society where music becomes the core of its people’s life, many discourses emerge and root in music. In Brazil, for instance, samba as the national music represents the chronicle of the Brazilians, which starts from the slavery in eighteenth century.

Neural Fields for Highly Accelerated 2D Cine Phase Contrast MRI

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT 2D cine phase contrast (CPC) MRI provides quantitative information on blood velocity and flow within the human vasculature. However, data acquisition is time‐consuming, motivating the reconstruction of the velocity field from undersampled measurements to reduce scan times. In this work, neural fields are proposed as a continuous spatiotemporal

Microscopic Characterization of the Brazilian Giant Samba Virus

Viruses, 2017
Prior to the discovery of the mimivirus in 2003, viruses were thought to be physically small and genetically simple. Mimivirus, with its ~750-nm particle size and its ~1.2-Mbp genome, shattered these notions and changed what it meant to be a virus. Since

Beat histogram features from NMF-based novelty functions for music classification [PDF]

, 2015
In this paper we present novel rhythm features derived from drum tracks extracted from polyphonic music and evaluate them in a genre classification task. Musical excerpts are analyzed using an optimized, partially fixed Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (

Upsampling DINOv2 Features for Unsupervised Vision Tasks and Weakly Supervised Materials Segmentation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Feature from recent image foundation models (DINOv2) are useful for vision tasks (segmentation, object localization) with little or no human input. Once upsampled, they can be used for weakly supervised micrograph segmentation, achieving strong results when compared to classical features (blurs, edge detection) across a range of material systems.

Adaptive Hybrid Energy Harvester Integrating PV, TEG, and Piezoelectric Sources With Real‐Time Power Management and Experimental Validation

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
An adaptive hybrid energy harvester combining photovoltaic, thermoelectric, and piezoelectric sources is experimentally demonstrated. Real‐time power management dynamically allocates and conditions multisource inputs, achieving improved robustness and efficiency under variable environmental conditions compared with single‐source harvesting.
