With technological advancements in recent years, single particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has become a major methodology for structural biology. Structure determination by single particle cryo-EM is premised on randomly orientated particles embedded in thin layer of vitreous ice to resolve high-resolution structural information in all directions. Otherwise, preferentially distributed particle orientations will lead to anisotropic resolution of the structure. Here we established a deconvolution approach, named AR-Decon, to computationally improve the quality of three-dimensional maps with anisotropic resolutions reconstructed from datasets with preferred orientations. We have tested and validated the procedure with both synthetic and experimental datasets and compared its performance with alternative machine-learning based methods.

MD, DSc, Professor, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Director; N.N. Burdenko National Medical Research Center of Neurosurgery of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, 16, 4th Tverskaya-Yamskaya St., Moscow, 125047, Russia.
Unlabelled: is to develop and implement an algorithm for image analysis in brain tumors (glioblastoma and metastasis) based on diffusion kurtosis MRI images (DKI) for the assessment of anisotropic changes in brain tissues in the directions from the tumor to the intact (as shown by the standard MRI data) white matter, which will enable generating individual tumor invasion maps.
Materials And Methods: A healthy volunteer and two patients (one with glioblastoma and the other with a single metastasis of small cell lung cancer) were examined by DKI obtaining 12 parametric kurtosis maps for each participant.
Results: During the investigation, we have developed an algorithm of DKI analysis and plotting the profile of tissue parameters in the direction from the tumor towards the unaffected white matter according to the data of standard MRI.
Encoding 3D information in 2D feature maps for brain CT-Angiography.

We propose learnable 3D pooling (L3P), a CNN module designed to compress 3D information into 2D feature maps using anisotropic convolutions and unidirectional max pooling. Specifically, we used L3P followed by a 2D network to generate predictions from 3D brain CT-Angiography (CTA) in the context of large vessel occlusion (LVO). To further demonstrate its versatility, we extended its application to 3D brain MRI analysis for brain age prediction.

IEEE Trans Vis Comput Graph
March 2025
Visual localization plays an important role in the applications of Augmented Reality (AR), which enable AR devices to obtain their 6-DoF pose in the pre-build map in order to render virtual content in real scenes. However, most existing approaches can not perform novel view rendering and require large storage capacities for maps. To overcome these limitations, we propose an efficient visual localization method capable of high-quality rendering with fewer parameters.

Purpose: The hierarchical structure of skin dictates its protective function against mechanical loading, which has been extensively studied through numerous experiments. Viscoelasticity and anisotropy have been defined for skin in tensile loading, but most puncture studies utilized skin simulants, which lacked natural tension and varying skin thicknesses. The purpose of this study was to define the mechanical behavior and failure thresholds of skin during puncture with various blunt impactor sizes and loading rates.
