A vision fronted with a new disparity model

open access: yes, 2004
We are developing a frontend that is based on the image representation in the visual cortex and plausible processing schemes. This frontend consists of multiscale line/edge and keypoint (vertex) detection, using models of simple, complex and end-stopped cells. This frontend is being extended by a new disparity model.

Research on Diaphragm Pump Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Res‐DCB‐Net

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonstationary pressure pulsation signals of diaphragm pumps contain strong background noise and coupled characteristics. This makes it challenging to extract incipient fault features and to decouple faults with similar physical mechanisms. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a spatiotemporal fault diagnosis model named Res‐DCB ...

Characterization of the extracellular matrix from human and dog umbilical cords

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix is important for maintaining tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis; it can also be used as a biomaterial for the production of biological scaffolds. Particularly, the umbilical cord has shown potential in the production of scaffolds for small‐diameter vessels.

Value and Outcome Uncertainty as Explanations for the WTA vs WTP Disparity: Theory and Experimental Evidence [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper contributes to the widespread discussion of the sources of the divergence between WTA and WTP values. The paper reports on theoretical and empirical investigations which show that value and outcome uncertainty offer an explanation for this ...

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

Sensitivity of life disparity with respect to changes in mortality rates [PDF]

open access: yes
This article is concerned with sensitivity analysis of life disparity with respect to changes in mortality rates. A relationship is derived that describes the effect on life disparity caused by a perturbation of the force of mortality. Recently Zhang and

How do secondary schools in England talk about modern languages? A corpus‐assisted discourse analysis of school websites

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Situating the study within an ecological perspective on language education, this article examines how secondary schools in England present Modern Languages (MLs) on official school websites. Focusing on 44 schools in Local Authorities with the lowest percentage average entry for the Languages pillar of the EBacc, we built a text database ...

A PDES method preserving boundaries on dense disparity map reconstruction

open access: yes, 2008
Over smoothness restricts the application of PDEs in the field of dense disparity map reconstruction, because disparity map reconstruction usually requires preserving discontinuousness in some areas such as the boundaries of objects.
