We present a new way of constraining the evolution of a region-based active contour with respect to a reference shape. Minimizing a shape prior, defined as a distance between shape descriptors based on the Legendre moments of the characteristic function, leads to a geometric flow that can be used with benefits in a two-class segmentation application. The shape model includes intrinsic invariance with regard to pose and affine deformations.

WHO Country Office in Ukraine, 9B Mykhaila Hrushevskoho Str., Kyiv, 01021, Ukraine.
Objective: the research is to determine the main radiation-hygienic factors influencing the formation of radiation doses among the population of radioactively contaminated territories (RCT) in Zhytomyr region in 2024 and to analyze the dynamics of internal radiation doses based on original experimental studies conducted in reference settlements from 2012 to 2024.
Materials And Methods: In 2024, a comprehensive radiation-hygienic monitoring program was conducted in 11 settlements of Narodychi Territorial Community (TC): the Narodychi and the villages of Selets, Bazar, Rudnya Bazarska, Khrystynivka (Zone 2), Motiyki, Zalissya, Davydky, Radcha, Nova Radcha, and Grezlya (Zone 3). The comprehensive radiation-hygienic monitoring included the following activities: mobile WBC monitoring: 817 measurements (562 adults and 255 children); collection and analysis of food samples: 39 milk samples, 61 potato samples, and 57 samples of wild foods, analyzed for radionuclide content, including 137Cs and 90Sr; assessment of external radiation exposure in these settlements; surveys: 194 individuals were surveyed regarding the consumption volumes of locally produced foods from their own households and purchased foods from commercial networks.
Cloud Removal in the Tibetan Plateau Region Based on Self-Attention and Local-Attention Models.

Optical remote sensing images have a wide range of applications but are often affected by cloud cover, which interferes with subsequent analysis. Therefore, cloud removal has become indispensable in remote sensing data processing. The Tibetan Plateau, as a sensitive region to climate change, plays a crucial role in the East Asian water cycle and regional climate due to its snow cover.

Methane (CH) spatial distribution and its trends in the Atlantic-Mediterranean transition region of southwestern Europe were studied using TROPOMI and GOSAT observations. TROPOMI XCH provided insights into the distribution across the entire Iberian Peninsula, highlighting the high XCH mixing ratios in the two main valleys and the southern sub-plateau, characterized by agricultural and livestock activities. The marine-continental region in the southwestern Iberian Peninsula was identified as a major CH hot spot.

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved remarkable success in various computer vision tasks. However, the lack of interpretability in these models has raised concerns and hindered their widespread adoption in critical domains. Generating activation maps that highlight the regions contributing to the CNN's decision has emerged as a popular approach to visualize and interpret these models.
