Abstract Flash Joule heating (FJH) is an emerging and profitable technology for converting inexhaustible biomass into flash graphene (FG). However, it is challenging to produce biomass FG continuously due to the lack of an integrated device. Furthermore, the high-carbon footprint induced by both exc...

Recently, deep learning based facial landmark detection has achieved great success. Despite this, we notice that the semantic ambiguity greatly degrades the detection performance. Specifically, the semantic ambiguity means that some landmarks (e.g. those evenly distributed along the face contour) do...

Liposomes as drug vehicles have advantages, such as payload protection, tunable carrying capacity and improved biodistribution. However, due to the dysfunction of targeting moieties and payload loss during preparation, immunoliposomes have yet to be favoured in commercial manufacturing. Here we repo...

Facial pose variation is one of the major factors making face recognition (FR) a challenging task. One popular solution is to convert non-frontal faces to frontal ones on which FR is performed. Rotating faces causes facial pixel value changes. Therefore, existing CNN-based methods learn to synthesiz...

MixUp is an effective data augmentation method to regularize deep neural networks via random linear interpolations between pairs of samples and their labels. It plays an important role in model regularization, semisupervised learning (SSL), and domain adaption. However, despite its empirical success...

Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in the upper stream of Yangtze River in China is a reservoir with the largest and the longest yearly water-level drop. Considering the fact that most of safety assessments of water samples collected from TGR region were based on chemical analysis, we here employed Caenor...

This article presents a new Self-growing and Pruning Generative Adversarial Network (SP-GAN) for realistic image generation. In contrast to traditional GAN models, our SP-GAN is able to dynamically adjust the size and architecture of a network in the training stage by using the proposed self-growing...

The paper presents a dictionary integration algorithm using 3D morphable face models (3DMM) for pose-invariant collaborative-representation-based face classification. To this end, we first fit a 3DMM to the 2D face images of a dictionary to reconstruct the 3D shape and texture of each image. The 3D ...

We here employed a model animal of Caenorhabditis elegans to perform toxicity assessment of original surface water samples collected from Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in the quiet season in Wanzhou, Chongqing. Using some sublethal endpoints, including lifespan, body length, locomotion behavior, broo...

Deep convolutional networks (CNNs) have achieved great success in face completion to generate plausible facial structures. These methods, however, are limited in maintaining global consistency among face components and recovering fine facial details. On the other hand, reflectional symmetry is a pro...

During the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident, large amounts of radioactive materials were released into the environment. Among them, a large proportion of the radionuclides, such as Cs, entered into the environment as radioactive microparticles (RMs). In recent years, the charac...

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the association between peri-operative hyperglycemia and adverse events in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) fistulas without a pre-operative diagnosis of diabetes mellitus who were undergoing definitive surgery. METHODS: Pre-operative and all post-operative blood glucose c...

Estimating the pose of objects from images is a crucial task of 3D scene understanding, and recent approaches have shown promising results on very large benchmarks. However, these methods experience a significant performance drop when dealing with unseen objects. We believe that it results from the ...

Synthesizing a frontal view face from a single nonfrontal image, i.e. face frontalization, is a task of practical importance in a wide range of facial image analysis applications. However, to train the frontalization model in a supervised manner, most existing face frontalization methods rely on the...

Almost 8 years after the Japanese Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident, data for 236U and 236U/238U have mainly remained limited to only a few heavily contaminated samples. In the present study, activities of 236U, 134Cs, and 137Cs, along with 234U, 235U, 238U, in 15 river bank soi...
