Inspired by classical works, when constructing local relationships in point clouds, there is always a geometric description of the central point and its neighboring points. However, the basic geometric representation of the central point and its neighborhood is insufficient. Drawing inspiration from local binary pattern algorithms used in image processing, we propose a novel method for representing point cloud neighborhoods, which we call Point Cloud Local Auxiliary Block (PLAB).

With the increasing incidence of shoulder periarthritis linked to modern lifestyle changes, effective prevention and treatment strategies remain elusive. This study explores two areas: first, identifying risk factors for shoulder periarthritis through Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis, and second, designing a motion intervention system incorporating MediaPipe and virtual reality (VR) technology.

In addition, parrotfish are capable of sex reversal, usually some males are sexually reversed from females, and it is still not known whether this sex reversal leads to significant changes in gut microbial communities. In this study, we investigated the gut microbial communities of three species of parrotfish including Scarus forsteni (4 females and 4 sex-reversed males), Scarus ghobban (5 females and 5 sex-reversed males), and Hipposcarus longiceps (5 females and 5 sex-reversed males) by using high-throughput sequencing technology.
