Remote detection of marine debris (also called marine litter) has received increased attention in the past decade, with the Multispectral Instruments (MSI) onboard the Sentinel-2A and Sentinel-2B satellites being the most used sensors. However, because of their mixed band resolutions and small sub-pixel coverage of debris within a pixel (e.g., <10 %), caution is required when interpreting the spectral shapes of MSI pixels. Otherwise, the spectrally distorted shapes may be misused as spectral endmembers (signatures) or interpreted as from certain types of floating matters. Here, using simulations and MSI data, I show the origin of the spectral distortions and emphasize why both pixel averaging and pixel subtraction are critical in algorithm design and spectral interpretation for the purpose of remote detection of marine debris using Sentinel-2 MSI sensors.

Background: Hemorrhagic myocardial infarction (hMI) can rapidly diminish the benefits of reperfusion therapy and direct the heart toward chronic heart failure. T2∗ cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the reference standard for detecting hMI. However, the lack of clarity around the earliest time point for detection, time-dependent changes in hemorrhage volume, and the optimal methods for detection can limit the development of strategies to manage hMI.

The Loess Plateau in northwest China features fragmented terrain and is prone to landslides. However, the complex environment of the Loess Plateau, combined with the inherent limitations of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), often results in false positives and missed detection for deep learning models based on CNNs when identifying landslides from high-resolution remote sensing images. To deal with this challenge, our research introduced a CNN-transformer hybrid network.

Sensors (Basel)
January 2025
Beijing Institute of Spacecraft System Engineering, China Academy of Space Technology, Beijing 100094, China.
The Chang'e-6 (CE-6) landing area on the far side of the Moon is located in the southern part of the Apollo basin within the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin. The statistical analysis of impact craters in this region is crucial for ensuring a safe landing and supporting geological research. Aiming at existing impact crater identification problems such as complex background, low identification accuracy, and high computational costs, an efficient impact crater automatic detection model named YOLOv8-LCNET (YOLOv8-Lunar Crater Net) based on the YOLOv8 network is proposed.

Background: Following shoulder surgery, controlled and protected mobilisation for an appropriate duration is crucial for appropriate recovery. However, methods for objective assessment of sling wear and use in everyday living are currently lacking. In this pilot study, we aim to determine if a sling-embedded triaxial accelerometer and/or wrist-worn sensor can be used to quantify arm posture during sling wear and adherence to sling wear.
