With humanity entering the age of intelligence, text detection technology has been gradually applied in the industry. However, text detection in a complex background is still a challenging problem for researchers to overcome. Most of the current algorithms are not robust enough to locate text regions, and the problem of the misdetection of adjacent text instances still exists.

The presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major obstacle to effectively deliver therapeutics to the central nervous system (CNS); hence, the outcomes following treatment of CNS diseases remain unsatisfactory. Fortunately, electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) provide a non-invasive method to locally open the BBB. To obtain the optimal pulse parameters of EMP-induced BBB opening to ensure the effective delivery of CNS drugs, it is particularly important to measure and assess the effects of pulse parameters on the temperature distribution in the human head exposed to EMPs.

The sand-fixation of plants is considered to be the most effective and fundamental measure in desertification control in many arid and semi-arid regions. Carex brunnescens (Carex spp) and Leymus secalinus (Leymus), two perennial clonal herbs native to the Maqu degraded alpine areas of northwest China, are dominant and constructive species in active sand dunes that have excellent adaptability to fix sand dunes found to date. In order to study the ability and mechanism of sandland blowout remediation by two clone plants C.

One main strategic adaptive mechanism adopted by succulent xerophyte species, resistance to drought stress is absorbing and accumulating large amounts of sodium (Na) from poor and dry soil which was stored in photosynthesizing branches as well as leaves as major osmoregulators, while still accumulating and storing a great deal of silicon (Si) in roots to resist to arid environments. To understand the possible adaptive strategies underlying how Si accumulation stimulates growth and ameliorates the adverse environmental impacts of drought stress on the C succulent xerophyte Zygophyllum xanthoxylum, plants grown for 3 weeks were suffered different KSiO concentrations (1.5-7.
