A new concept of using focus-diverse point spread functions (PSFs) for modal wavefront sensing (WFS) is explored. This concept is based on relatively straightforward image moment analysis of measured PSFs, which differentiates it from other focal-plane WFS techniques. The presented geometric analysis shows that the image moments are nonlinear functions of wave aberration coefficients but notes that focus diversity essentially decouples the coefficients of interest from others, resulting in a set of linear equations whose solution corresponds to modal coefficient estimates. The presented proof-of-concept simulations suggest the potential of the concept in WFS with strongly aberrated high signal-to-noise ratio objects in particular.

Duration, score, and timing: factors influencing the success of offensive transitions in top, marginal, and emerging football leagues.
Front Sports Act Living
January 2025
University of Maia, Maia, Portugal.
Objective: The study aimed to increase our understanding of offensive transitions in football, focusing on the time spent executing them and how it is influenced by the period in which they occur and the instant score. The objective is to understand its temporal variables and how they influence the unfolding of the scoreline during a match.
Methodology: This study analyzes 1,649 goals resulting from offensive transitions in 1,151 games across three leagues categories: Top, Marginal, and Emerging leagues.
Analysing head and trunk motion in the judo osoto-gari technique: relationship to sweeping-leg velocity.
PeerJ
January 2025
Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima, Japan.
Background: Osoto-gari is a leg throw technique that primarily relies on the hip extension to initiate the sweeping motion of the leg. A high sweep contact velocity is a crucial factor in efficiently executing this technique. While some literature emphasises whole-body coordination in the leg-sweeping action, the roles of trunk and head motion remain unclear.

[Investigation of the Influence of Image Reconstruction Parameters to Improve the Ability to Depict Internal Tumor Necrosis].
Nihon Hoshasen Gijutsu Gakkai Zasshi
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Nara Prefecture General Medical Center.
Purpose: There are attempts to assess tumor heterogeneity by texture analysis. However, the ordered subsets-expectation maximization (OSEM) reconstruction method has problems depicting heterogeneities. The aim of this study was to identify image reconstruction parameters that improve the ability to depict internal tumor necrosis using a self-made phantom that simulates internal necrosis.
