Published: February 2024

The use of event-based cameras in computer vision is a growing research direction. However, despite the existing research on face detection using the event camera, a substantial gap persists in the availability of a large dataset featuring annotations for faces and facial landmarks on event streams, thus hampering the development of applications in this direction. In this work, we address this issue by publishing the first large and varied dataset (Faces in Event Streams) with a duration of 689 min for face and facial landmark detection in direct event-based camera outputs. In addition, this article presents 12 models trained on our dataset to predict bounding box and facial landmark coordinates with an mAP score of more than 90%. We also performed a demonstration of real-time detection with an event-based camera using our models.

Many known and unknown historical events have remained below detection thresholds of genetic studies because subtle ancestry changes are challenging to reconstruct. Methods based on shared haplotypes and rare variants improve power but are not explicitly temporal and have not been possible to adopt in unbiased ancestry models. Here we develop Twigstats, an approach of time-stratified ancestry analysis that can improve statistical power by an order of magnitude by focusing on coalescences in recent times, while remaining unbiased by population-specific drift.

A holistic study on the effects of a rural flood detention basin: Flood peaks, water quality and grass growth.

Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are widely advocated to have multiple benefits, including in flood risk reduction, water quality improvement and ecosystem health. There are, however, few empirical studies quantifying such multi-functionality. Given the ongoing pressures of flooding and poor water quality within Europe, there is an urgent need for empirical evidence to assess the potential for NbS features to address these issues.

Environmental drivers of stream metabolism in a middle TN headwater stream.

PLoS One

December 2024

Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.

Monitoring the seasonal and diurnal variations in headwater stream metabolic regimes can provide critical information for understanding how ecosystems will respond to future environmental changes. In East Fork Creek, a headwater stream in middle Tennessee, week-long field campaigns were set up each month from May 2022 to May 2023 to collect stream metabolism estimators. In a more extensive field campaign from July 2-5 in 2022, diel signals were observed for temperature, pH, turbidity, and concentrations of Ca, Mg, K, Se, Fe, Ba, chloride, nitrate, DIC, DO, DOC, and total algae.

LASP to the Future of Atomic Simulation: Intelligence and Automation.

Precis Chem

December 2024

Collaborative Innovation Center of Chemistry for Energy Material, Shanghai Key Laboratory of Molecular Catalysis and Innovative Materials, Key Laboratory of Computational Physical Science, Department of Chemistry, Fudan University, Shanghai 200433, China.

Atomic simulations aim to understand and predict complex physical phenomena, the success of which relies largely on the accuracy of the potential energy surface description and the efficiency to capture important rare events. LASP software (large-scale atomic simulation with a Neural Network Potential), released in 2018, incorporates the key ingredients to fulfill the ultimate goal of atomic simulations by combining advanced neural network potentials with efficient global optimization methods. This review introduces the recent development of the software along two main streams, namely, higher intelligence and more automation, to solve complex material and reaction problems.

Adverse events related to physiotherapy practice: a scoping review.

Arch Physiother

December 2024

Department of Physiotherapy, School of Primary and Allied Health Care, Monash University, Frankston, Victoria - Australia.

Introduction: While adverse events related to physiotherapy are possible, the type of adverse event and the area of physiotherapy practice in which they occur are not well understood. The purpose of this scoping review was to establish adverse events related to physiotherapy practice and understand the nature of these events and the circumstances in which they occurred.

Methods: Relevant literature from January 2014 to February 2024 was gathered from five electronic databases.
