Fast Axial Scanning in 3D Imaging
2016
We establish the conditions for obtaining fast axial 3D microscopy with constant magnification, invariant resolution, and symmetrical displacement range. We demonstrate that liquid lenses permit the axial scanning free of mechanical movements and vibrations. This allows speeding-up the process and avoiding distortionsin the image of dynamic specimens.

Augmented Reality of the Middle Ear Combining Otoendoscopy and Temporal Bone Computed Tomography
2018
International audience; HYPOTHESIS:Augmented reality (AR) may enhance otologic procedures by providing sub-millimetric accuracy and allowing the unification of information in a single screen.BACKGROUND:Several issues related to otologic procedures can be addressed through an AR system by providing sub-millimetric precision, supplying a global view of the middle ear cleft, and advantageously unifying the information in a single screen. The AR system is obtained by combining otoendoscopy with temporal bone computer tomography (CT).METHODS:Four human temporal bone specimens were explored by high-resolution CT-scan and dynamic otoendoscopy with video recordings. The initialization of the system…
Targeting of tumor associated antigens in renal cell carcinoma using proteome-based analysis and their clinical significance
2002
The suitability of proteome-based strategies for the targeting of tumor-associated markers along with further analysis regarding their clinical significance were investigated in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The immunogenic protein expression profile of normal kidney and RCC cell lines was studied by proteome analysis combined with immunoblotting using sera from healthy donors and RCC patients, also termed PROTEOMEX. Employing this approach, a series of proteins reactive with either RCC patient sera and/or reactive with control sera were identified by microanalysis of tryptic peptides. Some of these candidate antigens represent members of the cytoskeletal family, such as cytokeratins, i…
Coxsackievirus B3-Induced Cellular Protrusions: Structural Characteristics and Functional Competence▿†
2011
ABSTRACT Virus-induced alterations in cell morphology play important roles in the viral life cycle. To examine the intracellular events of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) infection, green monkey kidney (GMK) cells were either inoculated with the virus or transfected with the viral RNA. Various microscopic and flow cytometric approaches demonstrated the emergence of CVB3 capsid proteins at 8 h posttransfection, followed by morphological transformation of the cells. The morphological changes included formation of membranous protrusions containing viral capsids, together with microtubules and actin. Translocation of viral capsids into these protrusions was sensitive to cytochalasin D, suggesting the …
Restitución 3D de las excavaciones realizadas por Lluis Pericot en Cueva de la Cocina (Dos Aguas, Valencia)
2017
Presentamos en esta comunicación el diseño y desarrollo del trabajo de virtualización 3D de las excavaciones en Cueva de la Cocina (Dos Aguas, Valencia) en el marco de un proyecto integral de invest igación cuyo objetivo es dar a conocer las dinámicas socio-ecológicas de los últimos caza-recolectores y el primer neolítico a partir de la lectura de la interesante secuencia proporcionada por este yacimiento (fig. 1). El proyecto contempla el diseño de un programa de trabajo que integra la información arqueo lógica de las diferentes intervenciones realizadas en el lugar en un entorno 3D (García Puchol et al., 2016). Los resultados ofrecidos corresponden a la reconstrucción de las campañas desa…
内部注意在维度层面对视觉工作记忆的影响
2021
Visual working memory is a memory system with limited capacity, thus internal attention plays a crucial role in selecting, controlling, and maintaining its stored content. Retro-cues are an important tool to study the influence of internal attention on visual working memory. Retro-cues are an important paradigm for studying the influence of internal attention on visual working memory. Depending on the different content of the cue, it can be divided into object-based retro-cue and dimension-based retro-cue and there are significant differences between them. The emergence of dimension-based retro-cue in recent years has become one of the hot topics of research. There are articles summarizing …
Visualizations for Decision Support in Scenario-based Multiobjective Optimization
2021
Reproducibility artifacts for: Babooshka Shavazipour, Manuel López-Ibáñez, and Kaisa Miettinen. Visualizations for Decision Support in Scenario-based Multiobjective Optimization. Information Sciences, 2021. doi:10.1016/j.ins.2021.07.025. Abstract: We address challenges of decision problems when managers need to optimize several conflicting objectives simultaneously under uncertainty. We propose visualization tools to support the solution of such scenario-based multiobjective optimization problems. Suitable graphical visualizations are necessary to support managers in understanding, evaluating, and comparing the performances of management decisions according to all objec…
Part-of-Speech Induction by Singular Value Decomposition and Hierarchical Clustering
2006
Part-of-speech induction involves the automatic discovery of word classes and the assignment of each word of a vocabulary to one or several of these classes. The approach proposed here is based on the analysis of word distributions in a large collection of German newspaper texts. Its main advantage over other attempts is that it combines the hierarchical clustering of context vectors with a previous step of dimensionality reduction that minimizes the effects of sampling errors.
Fractal approach in petrology: Small-angle neutron scattering experiments with volcanic rocks.
1988
Following Mandelbrot's pioneering work in 1977, we attempt to use the concept of fractal dimension in petrology. Fractal dimension is an intensive property of matter which offers a quantitative measure of the degree of surface roughness. Neutron scattering experiments have been performed on 18 volcanic rocks from different localities. The scattered intensity as a function of the momentum transfer obeys a power law whose exponent varies, for the rock samples presented, between -3 and -4. We conclude that, at the molecular level, our volcanic rocks are not fractal volumes. With regard to the particle-matrix interface, it is not possible to provide a determination at the present stage of resea…
L’uso del WHOQOL-BREF e dello EUROP-ASI nell’assessment dei disturbi da uso di sostanze: un’indagine comparativa
2010
Lo scopo del presente contributo è rintracciare, attraverso alcuni dati di ricerca, l’esistenza di correlazioni significative tra i punteggi compositi delle diverse aree dello EuropASI e le sezioni della forma breve del WHOQOL in pazienti con disturbo da uso di sostanze, con l’obiettivo di osservare le relazioni esistenti tra l’autovalutazione del benessere soggettivo e la valutazione degli operatori sulla gravità dei problemi connessi alla dipendenza da sostanze. La ricerca ha coinvolto un gruppo di 30 pazienti afferenti ad un Ser.T. del Distretto 13 della AUSL 6 di Palermo. I pazienti sono stati selezionati random, secondo i seguenti criteri di inclusione: diagnosi di dipendenza da sostan…
