Photo-to-Sketch Transformation in a Complex Background

IEEE Access, 2017
We investigate the problem of sketch generation for sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR). Solving this problem is important to obtain better retrieval results, because a powerful feature extraction algorithm is inefficient.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Sketch2Terrain: AI-Driven Real-Time Terrain Sketch Mapping in Augmented Reality

International Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems
Sketch mapping is an effective technique to externalize and communicate spatial information. However, it has been limited to 2D mediums, making it difficult to represent 3D information, particularly for terrains with elevation changes.
