In this paper, we improve upon earlier approaches to segmenting mitochondria in Electron Microscopy images by explicitly modeling the double membrane that encloses mitochondria, as well as using features that capture context over an extended neighborhood. We demonstrate that this results in both improved classification accuracy and reduced computational requirements for training.

Feature enhanced cascading attention network for lightweight image super-resolution.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Zhongyu (Fujian) Digital Technology Co., Ltd, Fuzhou, 350108, China.

Attention mechanisms have been introduced to exploit deep-level information for image restoration by capturing feature dependencies. However, existing attention mechanisms often have limited perceptual capabilities and are incompatible with low-power devices due to computational resource constraints. Therefore, we propose a feature enhanced cascading attention network (FECAN) that introduces a novel feature enhanced cascading attention (FECA) mechanism, consisting of enhanced shuffle attention (ESA) and multi-scale large separable kernel attention (MLSKA).

Digital Feedback Loop in Paraxial Fluids of Light: A Gate to New Phenomena in Analog Physical Simulations.

Phys Rev Lett

December 2024

Departamento de Física e Astronomia, Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade do Porto, Rua do Campo Alegre s/n, 4169-007 Porto, Portugal and INESC TEC, Centre of Applied Photonics, Rua do Campo Alegre 687, 4169-007 Porto, Portugal.

Easily accessible through tabletop experiments, paraxial fluids of light are emerging as promising platforms for the simulation and exploration of quantumlike phenomena. In particular, the analogy builds on a formal equivalence between the governing model for a Bose-Einstein condensate under the mean-field approximation and the model of laser propagation inside nonlinear optical media under the paraxial approximation. Yet, the fact that the role of time is played by the propagation distance in the analog system imposes strong bounds on the range of accessible phenomena due to the limited length of the nonlinear medium.

Enhanced Discriminability of Viral Vectors in Viscous Nanopores.

Small Methods

January 2025

Division of Molecular and Medical Genetics, Center for Gene and Cell Therapy, The Institute of Medical Science, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, 108-8639, Japan.

Achieving safe and efficient gene therapy hinges upon the inspection of genomes enclosed within individual nano-carriers to mitigate potential health risks associated with empty or fragment-filled vectors. Here solid-state nanopore sensing is reported for identifications of intermediate adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors in liquid. The method exploits the phenomenon of translocation slowdown induced by the viscosity of salt water-organic mixtures.

Unlabelled: Non-enveloped viruses like poliovirus (PV) have evolved the capacity to spread by non-lytic mechanisms. For PV, this mechanism exploits the host secretory autophagy pathway. Virions are selectively incorporated into autophagosomes, double-membrane vesicles that travel to the plasma membrane, fuse, and release single-membrane vesicles containing virions.

Article Synopsis
  • Coastal urbanization harms marine ecosystems, leading to habitat loss and pollution, which affects seabird species like Cory's and Scopoli's shearwaters in the Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean.
  • This study compares the fatty acid profiles and foraging patterns of these shearwaters, predicting that Scopoli's shearwaters will have lower diet quality with specific fatty acid markers linked to the Mediterranean's environmental challenges.
  • While findings showed Scopoli's shearwaters had higher levels of some fatty acids associated with pollution, they also showed increased ω-3 fatty acid concentrations, suggesting a complex interaction of prey availability and environmental adaptations in their feeding ecology.
