Object detection is a critical component in the development of autonomous driving technology and has demonstrated significant growth potential. To address the limitations of current techniques, this paper presents an improved object detection method for autonomous driving based on a detection transformer (DETR). First, we introduce a multi-scale feature and location information extraction method, which solves the inadequacy of the model for multi-scale object localization and detection.

Although semantic segmentation is widely employed in autonomous driving, its performance in segmenting road surfaces falls short in complex traffic environments. This study proposes a frequency-based semantic segmentation with a transformer (FSSFormer) based on the sensitivity of semantic segmentation to frequency information. Specifically, we propose a weight-sharing factorized attention to select important frequency features that can improve the segmentation performance of overlapping targets.

The object detection method serves as the core technology within the unmanned driving perception module, extensively employed for detecting vehicles, pedestrians, traffic signs, and various objects. However, existing object detection methods still encounter three challenges in intricate unmanned driving scenarios: unsatisfactory performance in multi-scale object detection, inadequate accuracy in detecting small objects, and occurrences of false positives and missed detections in densely occluded environments. Therefore, this study proposes an improved object detection method for unmanned driving, leveraging Transformer architecture to address these challenges.

Facile synthesis of Ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence (URTP) with super stability and long-afterglow are of great significance, but hard to achieve. Herein, a brilliant gram-scale and solvent-free pyrolysis treatment strategy has been developed to prepare high-performance URTP carbon dots (CDs) by regulating different temperature (250-500 °C). The optimized CDs (CD-400) showed room-temperature phosphorescence 1.

Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) have attracted considerable interest due to their superior optical properties and facile preparation. In this work, O-phenylenediamine and melamine were used as precursors for the one-step hydrothermal synthesis of novel orange emissive CDs (O-CDs) in an aqueous solution. The fluorescence intensity (580 nm) of the O-CDs exhibited a good linear relationship with Agin the range of 0.

Specifically, visually, and quantitatively monitor copper ion (Cu) is critical in the area of biological and environmental detection. Herein, a ratiometric fluorescent probe with benzoxazole appended xanthenes skeleton was constructed and further employed to monitor Cu in Hela cells, real water samples, and test strips. An easily distinguishable colorimetric (colorless to red) and fluorescence (green to red) change could be observed by naked eye under the portable UV lamp (365 nm) and the changes could be recovered by adding S.

Background: We intended to examine the functional role of microRNA 26 (miR-26a) in regulating H2O2-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis in RGC-5 cells in vitro.

Method: Various concentrations of H2O2 (0-1000 μM) were added in RGC-5 culture. Cell cytotoxicity was monitored by viability assay and gene expression level of miR-26a examined by qRT-PCR.
