Consumer-grade range cameras such as the Kinect sensor have the potential to be used in mapping applications where accuracy requirements are less strict. To realize this potential insight into the geometric quality of the data acquired by the sensor is essential. In this paper we discuss the calibration of the Kinect sensor, and provide an analysis of the accuracy and resolution of its depth data. Based on a mathematical model of depth measurement from disparity a theoretical error analysis is presented, which provides an insight into the factors influencing the accuracy of the data. Experimental results show that the random error of depth measurement increases with increasing distance to the sensor, and ranges from a few millimeters up to about 4 cm at the maximum range of the sensor. The quality of the data is also found to be influenced by the low resolution of the depth measurements.

Goal: Current methodologies for assessing cerebral compliance using pressure sensor technologies are prone to errors and issues with inter- and intra-observer consistency. RAP, a metric for measuring intracranial compensatory reserve (and therefore compliance), holds promise. It is derived using the moving correlation between intracranial pressure (ICP) and the pulse amplitude of ICP (AMP).

Efficient and reliable corn ( L.) yield prediction is important for varietal selection by plant breeders and management decision-making by growers. Unlike prior studies that focus mainly on county-level or controlled laboratory-scale areas, this study targets a production-scale area, better representing real-world agricultural conditions and offering more practical relevance for farmers.

Two widely applied approaches to derive such LST data are merging thermal infrared remote sensing (TIR)-passive microwave remote sensing (PMW) observations and merging TIR reanalysis data. However, as only the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) is adopted as the TIR source for merging, current 1 km all-sky LST products are limited to the MODIS observation time.

A generative adversarial network (GAN) makes it possible to map a data sample from one domain to another one. It has extensively been employed in image-to-image and text-to image translation. We propose an EEG-to-EEG translation model to map the scalp-mounted EEG (scEEG) sensor signals to intracranial EEG (iEEG) sensor signals recorded by foramen ovale sensors inserted into the brain.

Precipitable water vapor (PWV) is an important indicator to characterize the spatial and temporal variability of water vapor. A high spatial and temporal resolution of atmospheric precipitable water can be obtained using ground-based GNSS, but its inversion accuracy is usually limited by the weighted mean temperature, Tm. For this reason, based on the data of 17 ground-based GNSS stations and water vapor reanalysis products over 2 years in the Hong Kong region, a new model for water vapor inversion without the Tm parameter is established by deep learning in this paper, the research results showed that, compared with the PWV information calculated by the traditional model using Tm parameter, the accuracy of the PWV retrieved by the new model proposed in this paper is higher, and its accuracy index parameters BIAS, MAE, and RMSE are improved by 38% on average.
