In this paper, we proposed a new approach to notably enhance the compression rate of integral images by using the motion-compensated residual images (MCRIs). In the proposed method, sub-images (SIs) transformed from the picked-up elemental images of a three-dimensional (3-D) object, are sequentially rearranged with a spiral scanning topology. The moving vectors among the SIs, then, are estimated and compensated with the block-matching algorithm. Furthermore, spatial redundancy among the SIs is also removed by computing the differences between the local SIs and their motion-compensated versions, from which a sequence of MCRIs are finally generated and compressed with the MPEG-4 algorithm. Experimental results show that the compression efficiency of the proposed method has been improved up to 861.1% on average from that of the JPEG-based elemental images (EIs) method, and up to 1,497.0% and 118.8% on average from those of the MPEG-based MCSIs and the MPEG-based RIs method, respectively.

: Brain tissue immersed in cerebrospinal fluid often exhibits complex mechanical behaviour, especially the nonlinear stress- strain and rate-dependent responses. Despite extensive research into its material properties, the impact of solution environments on the mechanical behaviour of brain tissue remains limited. This knowledge gap affects the biofidelity of head modelling.

Compressed ultrafast photography (CUP) is a high-speed imaging technique with a frame rate of up to ten trillion frames per second (fps) and a sequence depth of hundreds of frames. This technique is a powerful tool for investigating ultrafast processes. However, since the reconstruction process is an ill-posed problem, the image reconstruction will be more difficult with the increase of the number of reconstruction frames and the number of pixels of each reconstruction frame.

Spontaneous ureteral rupture is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain, particularly unusual during pregnancy or the post-partum period. While pregnancy-related changes like ureteral compression and dilation may play a role, no definitive mechanisms have been established. Clinicians should suspect ureteric injury in post-partum patients with free pelvic fluid.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFSpectral analysis is a widely used method for monitoring photosynthetic capacity. However, vegetation indices-based linear regression exhibits insufficient utilization of spectral information, while full spectra-based traditional machine learning has limited representational capacity (partial least squares regression) or uninterpretable (convolution). In this study, we proposed a deep learning model with enhanced interpretability based on attention and vegetation indices calculation for global spectral feature mining to accurately estimate photosynthetic capacity.

Background: To explore the clinical characteristics of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) via unilateral transverse process-pedicular (UTPP) approach in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) in the elderly.
Methods: A total of 120 elderly patients with lumbar OVCF who underwent PVP via unilateral pedicular (UTP) and UTPP approaches in our hospital from January 2022 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The postoperative VAS score (visual analog scale), ODI score (Oswestry disability index), surgical indicators, and imaging indicators were recorded in the two groups.
