Chan-Vese Reformulation for Selective Image Segmentation.
Selective segmentation involves incorporating user input to partition an image into foreground and background, by discriminating between objects of a similar type. Typically, such methods involve introducing additional...
Validation of Performance Homogeneity of Chan-Vese Model on Selected Tumour Cells
This study aims to analyze the Chan-Vese model's performance using a variety of tumor images. The processes involve the tumors' segmentation, detecting the tumors, identifying the segmented tumor region, and extracting the...

Supernumerary kidneys
BACKGROUND: A supernumerary kidney (SK) is an additional kidney with its own capsule and blood supply that is not fused with the ipsilateral kidney (IK). Because individual case reports indicate a high morbidity rate, the aim of...
Tuning of Neuronal Excitation by a Brain Specific Microrna MIR-128: From Targets to Behavior
Chan Lek Tan
Jan 01, 0001
MicroRNAs constitute a vital new component of our evolving understanding of regulatory mechanisms that shape cellular gene expression. As ubiquitous regulators of protein translation, microRNAs have a unique regulatory function...

Controversial Issues in Arthroscopic Surgery for Femoroacetabular Impingement.
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common cause of painful hip in the young and middle-aged population. This condition frequently leads to a labral tear, damage of acetabular cartilage, and secondary arthritis of the hip....

Despite recent scholarship historians still know relatively little about the dynamics of the maintenance of illegitimate children under the old poor law. This article examines the affiliation system in Southwark and Lambeth...
Statistical Signal Properties of the Pressure-Reactivity Index (PRx)
SK Kelly, SM Bishop, A Ercole
Feb 13, 2018
Objectives: The pressure-reactivity index (PRx) is defined in terms of the moving correlation coefficient between intracranial pressure (ICP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) and is a measure of cerebral autoregulation ability....
Does Knowledge Really Help?
Drawing on the self-determination theory, this study explored the effect of three kinds of low-carbon knowledge (LCB), including system knowledge (SK), action-related knowledge (AK), and effectiveness knowledge (EK), on college...
Evaluation of Diagnostic Performance of Machine Learning Algorithms to Classify the Fetal Heart Rate Baseline From Cardiotocograph
Cardiotocography (CTG) is the widely used cost-effective, non-invasive technique to monitor the fetal heart and mother’s uterine contraction pressure to assess the wellbeing of the fetus. The most important parameters of fetal...
Mutational landscape of normal epithelial cells in Lynch Syndrome patients.
Lynch Syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant disease conferring a high risk of colorectal cancer due to germline heterozygous mutations in a DNA mismatch repair (MMR) gene. Although cancers in LS patients show elevated somatic...
LEAP-GWU-2015
As part of the LEAP-GWU-2015 exercise, a dynamic centrifuge test was conducted at the University of Cambridge on a 5° slope of medium dense Ottawa F-65 sand. The model preparation and saturation details are presented in this...
Dynamic and monotonic response of Monopile Foundations for Offshore wind turbines using centrifuge testing
AbstractThe seismic response of monopile foundations is a growing area of research as the offshore wind industry expands worldwide, including in earthquake prone regions of the world. This paper...
