Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient fabric defect detection algorithm by means of exploring the sparsity characteristics of main local binary pattern (MLBP) extracted from the original fabric texture. Design/methodology/approach In the proposed algorithm, original LBP features are extracted from the fabric texture to be detected, and MLBP are selected by occurrence probability. Second, a dictionary is established with MLBP atoms which can sparsely represent all the LBP. Then, the value of the gray-scale difference between gray level of neighborhood pixels and the central

Abstract:
Ship detection with polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) has received increasing attention for its wide usage in maritime applications. However, extracting discriminative features to implement ship detection is still a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a novel ship detection method for PolSAR images via task-driven discriminative dictionary learning (TDDDL). An assumption that ship and clutter information are sparsely coded under two separate dictionaries is made. Contextual information is considered by imposing superpixel-level joint sparsity constraints. In order to am

Abstract:
In vivo monitoring of the microvasculature is relevant since diseases such as diabetes, ischemia, or cancer cause microvascular impairment. Super-resolution ultrasound imaging allows in vivo examination of the microvasculature by detecting and tracking sparsely distributed intravascular microbubbles over a minute-long period. The ability to create detailed images of the renal vasculature of Sprague-Dawley rats using a modified clinical ultrasound platform was investigated in this study. Additionally, we hypothesized that early ischemic damage to the renal microcirculation could be visualized.

Abstract:
Background Objective and continuous severity measures of anxiety and depression are highly valuable and would have many applications in psychiatry and psychology. A collective source of data for objective measures are the sensors in a person’s smartphone, and a particularly rich source is the microphone that can be used to sample the audio environment. This may give broad insight into activity, sleep, and social interaction, which may be associated with quality of life and severity of anxiety and depression.

BackgroundClearance of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) following checkpoint blockade (CB) can precede radiographic response,1 2 though current state of the art ctDNA detection via targeted panels faces limited sensitivity in low burden disease (figure 1). We previously showed that whole genome sequencing (WGS) of plasma can overcome low input of ctDNA to dynamically track low volume malignancy using matched tumor tissue.3 We therefore sought to evaluate ctDNA for tracking early response to checkpoint blockade (CB) in melanoma, and developed a novel classifier that allows us to track disease with

Abstract Introduction Minimal residual disease (MRD) has emerged as an independent prognostic factor for patients of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). There is a strong correlation between MRD levels in bone marrow and the risk of relapse in childhood & adult leukemias 1, 2. Bone marrow MRD (BM-MRD) level of ≥ 0.01% is considered as positive and a mid-induction MRD of ≥ 1% is associated with high risk of relapse 3. Recently, the concept of peripheral blood MRD (PB-MRD), as a replacement for BM-MRD, has hit the lime light. In pediatric B-ALL, presence of PB-MRD is associated with a high r

Abstract:
Background: An untargeted chemical analysis of bio-fluids provides semi-quantitative data for thousands of chemicals for expanding our understanding about relationships among metabolic pathways, diseases, phenotypes and exposures. During the processing of mass spectral and chromatography data, various signal thresholds are used to control the number of peaks in the final data matrix that is used for statistical analyses. However, commonly used stringent thresholds generate constrained data matrices which may under-represent the detected chemical space, leading to missed biological insights in

Abstract:
Summary Dynamical systems based on differential equations are useful for modelling the temporal evolution of biomarkers. Such systems can characterize the temporal patterns of biomarkers and inform the detection of interactions between biomarkers. Existing statistical methods for dynamical systems deal mostly with single time-course data based on a linear model or generalized additive model. Hence, they cannot adequately capture the complex interactions between biomarkers; nor can they take into account the heterogeneity between systems or subjects. In this article, we propose a semiparametric

AbstractEstimating the direction-of-arrival (DOA) of multiple acoustic sources is one of the key technologies for humanoid robots and drones. However, it is a most challenging problem due to a number of factors, including the platform size which puts a constraint on the array aperture. To overcome this problem, a high-resolution DOA estimation algorithm based on sparse Bayesian learning is proposed in this paper. A group sparse prior based hierarchical Bayesian model is introduced to encourage spatial sparsity of acoustic sources. To obtain approximate posteriors of the hidden variables, a var

Abstract:
Abstract Background Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has emerged has a main strategy to study transcriptional activity at the cellular level. Clustering analysis is routinely performed on scRNA-seq data to explore, recognize or discover underlying cell identities. The high dimensionality of scRNA-seq data and its significant sparsity accentuated by frequent dropout events, introducing false zero count observations, make the clustering analysis computationally challenging. Even though multiple scRNA-seq clustering techniques have been proposed, there is no consensus on the best performing
