Multi-scale object detection in UAV images based on adaptive feature fusion

Plos.org 

by Siqi Tan, Zhijian Duan, Longzhong Pu

With the widespread use of UAVs, UAV aerial image target detection technology can be used for practical applications in the military, traffic planning, personnel search and rescue and other fields. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale UAV aerial image detection method based on adaptive feature fusion for solving the problem of detecting small target objects in UAV aerial images. This method automatically adjusts the convolution kernel receptive field... Читать дальше...

Using texture analysis of ultrasound images to assess the effect of cupping therapy on muscle quality of the triceps

Plos.org 

by Isabella Yu-Ju Hung, Yih-Kuen Jan

The objectives were to investigate whether cupping therapy improves muscle quality and the interaction between duration and negative pressure of cupping therapy affects muscle quality. A 2×2 factorial design with repeated measures was used to examine the efficacy of cupping therapy on improving muscle quality. The independent factors were cupping pressures at −225 and −300 mmHg and cupping durations at 5 and 10 min, and the dependent factor was texture of B-mode ultrasound image of the triceps.
