In this paper, we discuss the reconstruction and the recognition of partially occluded objects using photon counting integral imaging (II). Irradiance scenes are numerically reconstructed for the reference target in three-dimensional (3D) space. Photon counting scenes are estimated for unknown input objects using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of Poisson parameter. We propose nonlinear matched filtering in 3D space to recognize partially occluded targets. The recognition performance is substantially improved from the nonlinear matched filtering of elemental images without 3D reconstruction. The discrimination capability is analyzed in terms of Fisher ratio (FR) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.

We perceive and understand others' emotional states from multisensory information such as facial expressions and vocal cues. However, such cues are not always available or clear. Can partial loss of visual cues affect multisensory emotion perception? In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the widespread use of face masks, which can reduce some facial cues used in emotion perception.

Retinal Racemosal Hemangioma Associated with Intracranial Vascular Malformation (Wyburn -Mason Syndrome) - Case Report.

Retin Cases Brief Rep

December 2024

Vision and Ocular Health Research Group (VISOC) / Vision and Ocular Health Research Group (VISOC), Ophthalmology Service, Universidad del Valle, Hospital Universitario del Valle, Cali, Colombia.

Purpose: To describe a case of Wyburn-Mason syndrome in a young child with initially declined treatment leading to delayed intervention.

Methodology: Case report.

Results: We report a 6-year-old boy with mild periocular trauma following a fall, who was incidentally found to have a retinal arteriovenous malformation (AVM) associated with a brain AVM, indicative of Wyburn-Mason Syndrome.

Detecting people carrying firearms in outdoor or indoor scenes usually identifies (or avoids) potentially dangerous situations. Nevertheless, the automatic detection of these weapons can be greatly affected by the scene conditions. Commonly, in real scenes these firearms can be seen from different perspectives.

Transcatheter Pulmonary Flow Restrictors: Current Trends and Future Perspectives.

Catheter Cardiovasc Interv

January 2025

Pediatrics & Medicine, Weill Cornell Medicine Chief International Patients Services & Chair, Sidra Department Cardiovascular Diseases, University of Jordan, Amman, Jordan.

Article Synopsis
  • Transcatheter Pulmonary Flow Restrictors (TPFRs) are innovative devices for managing pulmonary blood flow in congenital heart disease, yet there is a lack of detailed studies examining their variety and crucial design features.
  • * The review consolidates current knowledge on TPFRs, highlights significant design considerations, identifies gaps in medical practice, and suggests future research avenues to improve these devices.
  • * An analysis of 82 TPFR implants revealed challenges like complications with microvascular plugs, including issues with sizing, device migration, and thrombosis, while emphasizing the need for devices that can be safely removed and reduce risks like embolization and inflammation.
