Digital pathology images are treated as the "gold standard" for the diagnosis of colorectal lesions, especially colon cancer. Real-time, objective and accurate inspection results will assist clinicians to choose symptomatic treatment in a timely manner, which is of great significance in clinical medicine. However, Manual methods suffers from long inspection cycle and serious reliance on subjective interpretation.

Autism is often comorbid with other psychiatric disorders. We have previously shown that Dip2a knockout (KO) induces autism-like behaviors in mice. However, the role of Dip2a in other psychiatric disorders remains unclear.

Color split-focal plane polarization imaging systems are composed of image sensors with a color polarization filter array (CPFA). The noise generated during image acquisition leads to incorrect estimation of the color polarization information. Therefore, it is necessary to denoise CPFA image data.

Glycinebetaine has been widely considered as an effective protectant against abiotic stress in plants, and also found to promote plant growth under normal growing conditions, especially during the reproductive stage. Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) and choline oxidase (COD) are two key enzymes which have been used to confer glycinebetaine synthesis in plant which normally does not synthesis glycinebetaine. In this study, we used the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum, cv 'Moneymaker') plants of wild-type and the transgenic lines codA (L1, L2) and BADH (2, 46), which were transformed with codA and BADH, respectively, to study the impact of glycinebetaine on tomato fruit development.

A method for suppressing sea surface clutter, based on the characteristics of sun glint, is proposed. The proposed method is built on an infrared polarization radiation model of the dynamic sea surface. Based on the time-domain polarization characteristics of sun glint in a dynamic sea scene, a method for taking linearly polarized images at different analyzer angles over fixed intervals is used to suppress sea clutter by using the minimum operation.

Targeting star-like water surface clutter, a clutter suppression method based on infrared polarization information is proposed. First, the clutter is suppressed from a global perspective using infrared polarization imaging technology, and a basic clutter-suppressed image is obtained. Then, using the Reed-Xiaoli anomaly detection algorithm, the remaining clutter positions in the basic image are determined from the polarization intensity image and basic image.

A novel method to simulate the polarimetric infrared imaging of a synthetic sea surface with atmospheric Mie scattering effects is presented. The infrared emission, multiple reflections, and infrared polarization of the sea surface and the Mie scattering of aerosols are all included for the first time. At first, a new approach to retrieving the radiative characteristics of a wind-roughened sea surface is introduced.

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are a family of small highly hydrophilic proteins that accumulate at the onset of seed desiccation and in response to adverse conditions such as drought, salinity, low temperature, or water deficit. In previous studies, we demonstrated that ZmLEA3 could enhance the transgenic tobacco tolerance to osmotic and oxidative stresses. Here, we demonstrated that the transcription of ZmLEA3 in the maize stems could be significantly induced by low temperature and osmotic stresses and by treatment with abscisic acid (ABA) and H2O2.
