The goal of this paper is to correct bleed-through in degraded documents using a variational approach. The variational model is adapted using an estimated background according to the availability of the verso side of the document image. Furthermore, for the latter case, a more advanced model based on a global control, the flow field, is introduced. The solution of each resulting model is obtained using wavelet shrinkage or a time-stepping scheme, depending on the complexity and nonlinearity of the models. When both sides of the document are available, the proposed model uses the reverse diffusion process for the enhancement of double-sided document images. The results of experiments with real and synthesized samples are promising. The proposed model, which is robust with respect to noise and complex background, can also be applied to other fields of image processing.

Gastrointestinal tract-related cancers pose a significant health burden, with high mortality rates. In order to detect the anomalies of the gastrointestinal tract that may progress to cancer, a video capsule endoscopy procedure is employed. The number of video capsule endoscopic ( ) images produced per examination is enormous, which necessitates hours of analysis by clinicians.

We consider resonant wavelike dark matter conversion into low-frequency radio waves in the Earth's ionosphere. Resonant conversion occurs when the dark matter mass and the plasma frequency coincide, defining a range m_{DM}∼10^{-9}-10^{-8} eV where this approach is best suited. Owing to the nonrelativistic nature of dark matter and the typical variational scale of the Earth's ionosphere, the standard linearized approach to computing dark matter conversion is not suitable.

The Lie group method is a powerful technique for obtaining analytical solutions for various nonlinear differential equations. This study aimed to explore the behavior of nonlinear elastic wave equations and their underlying physical properties using Lie group invariants. We derived eight-dimensional symmetry algebra for the (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear elastic wave equation, which was used to obtain the optimal system.

Criegee intermediates (CIs) are potentially significant oxidants and a major source of OH radicals in the troposphere. The -CHCHOO intermediate has been confirmed as a crucial component of CIs in the atmospheric environment. Although previous studies have provided some experimental and theoretical rate constants, inconsistencies among these data remain, and the experimental data do not cover the full range of temperatures present in the troposphere.

Artifacts are a common problem in physiological time series collected from intensive care units (ICU) and other settings. They affect the quality and reliability of clinical research and patient care. Manual annotation of artifacts is costly and time-consuming, rendering it impractical.
