The HA4M dataset: Multi-Modal Monitoring of an assembly task for Human Action recognition in Manufacturing.

This paper introduces the Human Action Multi-Modal Monitoring in Manufacturing (HA4M) dataset, a collection of multi-modal data relative to actions performed by different subjects building an Epicyclic Gear Train (EGT). In particular, 41 subjects executed several trials of the assembly task, which consists of 12 actions. Data were collected in a laboratory scenario using a Microsoft® Azure Kinect which integrates a depth camera, an RGB camera, and InfraRed (IR) emitters.

MotilityJ: An open-source tool for the classification and segmentation of bacteria on motility images.

Background And Objectives: Infectious diseases produced by antimicrobial resistant microorganisms are a major threat to human, and animal health worldwide. This problem is increased by the virulence and spread of these bacteria. Surface motility has been regarded as a pathogenicity element because it is essential for many biological functions, but also for disease spreading; hence, investigations on the motility behaviour of bacteria are crucial to understand chemotaxis, biofilm formation and virulence in general.

CLoDSA: a tool for augmentation in classification, localization, detection, semantic segmentation and instance segmentation tasks.

Background: Deep learning techniques have been successfully applied to bioimaging problems; however, these methods are highly data demanding. An approach to deal with the lack of data and avoid overfitting is the application of data augmentation, a technique that generates new training samples from the original dataset by applying different kinds of transformations. Several tools exist to apply data augmentation in the context of image classification, but it does not exist a similar tool for the problems of localization, detection, semantic segmentation or instance segmentation that works not only with 2 dimensional images but also with multi-dimensional images (such as stacks or videos).

Resolution of disseminated fusariosis in a child with acute leukemia treated with combined antifungal therapy: a case report.

Background: Fusarium spp. is being isolated with increasing frequency as a pathogen in oncohematologic patients. Caspofungin and amphotericin B have been reported to have synergistic activity against Fusarium spp.
