Abstract:
Vector graphics includes both filled and stroked paths as the main primitives. While there are many techniques for rendering filled paths on GPU, stroked paths have proved more elusive. This paper presents a technique for performing stroke expansion, namely the generation of the outline representing the stroke of the given input path. Stroke expansion is a global problem, with challenging constraints on continuity and correctness. Nonetheless, we implement it using a fully parallel algorithm suitable for execution in a GPU compute shader, with minimal preprocessing. The output of our method ca

The automatic style translation of Chinese characters (CH-Char) is a challenging problem. Different from English or general artistic style transfer, Chinese characters contain a large number of glyphs with the complicated content and characteristic style. Early methods on CH-Char synthesis are inefficient and require manual intervention. Recently some GAN-based methods are proposed for font generation. The supervised GAN-based methods require numerous image pairs, which is difficult for many chirography styles. In addition, unsupervised methods often cause the blurred and incorrect strokes. Th

By contrast, we argue that figurative artworks are salience maps, and develop a novel painting algorithm that uses a genetic algorithm (GA) to search the space of possible paintings for a given image, so approaching an "optimal" artwork in which salient detail is conserved and non-salient

To address this challenge, we first establish a pencil stroke imitation mechanism.

Abstract:
AbstractWhile methods for generative image synthesis and example-based stylization produce impressive results, their black-box style representation intertwines shape, texture, and color aspects, limiting precise stylistic control and editing of artistic images. We introduce a novel method for decomposing the style of an artistic image that enables interactive geometric shape abstraction and texture control. We spatially decompose the input image into geometric shapes and an overlaying parametric texture representation, facilitating independent manipulation of color and texture. The parameters

AbstractOcclusion of the major cerebral artery usually results in brain hypoxic-ischemic injury, which evokes neuroinflammation and microglial activation. Activated microglia are considered a source of multiple neurotoxic factors, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), in the central nervous system (CNS).

Introduction Stroke code simulations have gained popularity as an educational model for neurology resident and fellow training in the diagnosis and management of hyperacute stroke. Previous simulations have used live patients or standardized patients as surrogates for learners to interact with in the simulated codes. While these provide high fidelity, there can be significant costs associated with the training and deployment of standardized patients, as well as potential for inconsistencies from encounter to encounter.

Abstract:
Abstract Stroke significantly impacts the quality of life. However, the long-term cognitive evolution in stroke is poorly predictable at the individual level. There is an urgent need to better predict long-term symptoms based on acute clinical neuroimaging data. Previous works have demonstrated a strong relationship between the location of white matter disconnections and clinical symptoms. However, rendering the entire space of possible disconnection-deficit associations optimally surveyable will allow for a systematic association between brain disconnections and cognitive-behavioural measures

Left atrial appendage (LAA) morphology assessed by contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) has been associated to the risk of cardioembolic stroke in non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Subsequent studies with the traditional LAA classification system (CS) into 4 morphologies (Chicken wing, Cauliflower, Cactus and Windsock) yielded mixed results in terms of reliability and stroke risk association. Recently, a simple LAA morphology CS (new-LAAcs) based on the LAA bend angle measurement has been suggested.

Abstract Black phosphorus (BP), as a representative metal-free semiconductor, has been extensively explored. It has a higher drug loading capacity in comparison to conventional materials and also possesses excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. Furthermore, BP nanosheets can enhance the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, owing to their photothermal effect. However, the inherent instability of BP poses a significant limitation, highlighting the importance of surface modification to enhance its stability. Ischemic stroke (IS) is caused b

Abstract Objective: Diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa cause the degradation of the photoreceptor layer. One approach to restore vision is to electrically stimulate the surviving retinal ganglion cells with a microelectrode array such as epiretinal implants. Epiretinal implants are known to generate visible anisotropic shapes elongated along the axon fascicles of neighboring retinal ganglion cells. Recent work has demonstrated that to obtain isotropic pixel-like shapes, it is possible to map axon fascicles and avoid stimulating them by inactivating elect
