Article Abstract

This study introduces a novel Blind Image Quality Assessment (BIQA) approach leveraging a multi-stream spatial and channel attention model. Our method addresses challenges posed by diverse image content and distortions by integrating feature maps from two distinct backbones. Through spatial and channel attention mechanisms, our algorithm prioritizes regions of interest, enhancing its ability to capture crucial image details. Extensive evaluations on four benchmark datasets demonstrate superior performance compared to existing methods, closely aligning with human perceptual assessment. Our approach exhibits exceptional generalization capabilities on both authentic and synthetic distortion databases. Moreover, it demonstrates a distinctive focus on perceptual foreground information, enhancing its practical applicability. Thorough quantitative analyses underscore the algorithm's superior performance, establishing its dominance over existing methods.

For finely representation of complex reservoir units, higher computing overburden and lower spatial resolution are limited to traditional stochastic simulation. Therefore, based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), spatial distribution patterns of regional variables can be reproduced through high-order statistical fitting. However, parameters of GANs cannot be optimized under insufficient training samples.

Hyperspectral Metachip-Based 3D Spatial Map for Cancer Cell Screening and Quantification.

Adv Mater

Advanced Microscopy and Instrumentation Research Center, School of Instrumentation Science and Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, 150080, China.

In this paper, compact terahertz (THz) metachips for hyperspectral screening and quantitative evaluation of human cancer cells is reported. This pixelated resonant metachips feature the resonance channel from 1 and 3 THz frequency with a record-high quality factor (up to 230). Through the interactions of various cancer cells of different concentrations, high-dimensional spectral signatures are obtained, which are further transformed into a spatial map for labelling and quantification purposes.

Revisiting astrocytic calcium signaling in the brain.

Fundam Res

November 2024

Department of Pharmacology, Jiangsu Provincial Key Laboratory of Critical Care Medicine, School of Medicine, Southeast University, Nanjing 210009, China.

Astrocytes, characterized by complex spongiform morphology, participate in various physiological processes, and abnormal changes in their calcium (Ca) signaling are implicated in central nervous system disorders. However, medications targeting the control of Ca have fallen short of the anticipated therapeutic outcomes in clinical applications. This underscores the fact that our comprehension of this intricate regulation of calcium ions remains considerably incomplete.

Ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) is the main causative factor of spinal stenosis, but how to accurately and efficiently identify the ossification region is a clinical pain point and an urgent problem to be solved. Currently, we can only rely on the doctor's subjective experience for identification, with low efficiency and large error. In this study, a deep learning method is introduced for the first time into the diagnosis of ligamentum flavum ossificans, we proposed a lightweight, automatic and efficient method for identifying ossified regions, called CDUNeXt.

In the field of rehabilitation, although deep learning have been widely used in multitype gesture recognition via surface electromyography (sEMG), their higher algorithmic complexity often leads to low computationally inefficient, which compromise their practicality. To achieve more efficient multitype recognition, We propose the Residual-Inception-Efficient (RIE) model, which integrates Inception and efficient channel attention (ECA). The Inception, which is a multiscale fusion convolutional module, is adopted to enhance the ability to extract sEMG features.
