Abstract: Several algorithms have been developed for the data processing of spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SAR). In particular, the range migration algorithm (RMA) does not assume that illuminating wavefronts are planar. Also, a high resolution image can be obtained by the RMA. This paper introduces an extension of the original RMA to enable a more efficient airborne SAR data processing. W...

weather and an increase in rare extreme events will have a negative effect on coffee production and the millions of farmers and their families which depend on the crop for their livelihoods. Most of these smallholder farmers live on the edge of viable existence, and any unpredictable change in circumstances can push them into poverty. " In a separate effort supported by Earthwatch, the Institut...

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in patients >50 years old. The hallmark of the disease is represented by the accumulation of extracellular material between retinal pigment epithelium and the inner collagenous layer of Bruch's membrane, called drusen. Although identified almost 30 years ago, reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) have been recently recognized as a ...

Much of the research in visual attention has been driven by the spotlight metaphor. This metaphor has been useful over many years for generating experimental questions in attention research. However, theories and models of visual selection have reached such a level of complexity that debate now centers around more specific questions about the nature of attention. In this review, the general que...

Oral presentations: 20 minutes each, 15-18 minutes presentation + 2-5 minutes Q&A. Poster Presentations: The size of the poster-boards is 0.9m (width) by 1.5m (height). Please let us know in case you require any special equipment for your poster presentations (earphones will be available in the "Audio Day"). Spotlight presentations: These are 2-minutes "promos" for some of the papers to be pres...

Research Spotlight Research Spotlight is a new section in AEDR that highlights a study that might be of interest to our readers. An interview with one or more of the study’s authors also provides a more personal, behind-the-scenes understanding of how and why research is done. In this issue, we’re highlighting a study done in Salt Lake City that looked at methods for improving the quality of CP...

A I think that understanding and effectively modeling the dynamics of cancer and affected normal tissues at all biocomplexity levels by using any effi cient combination of mathematical and computer modeling approaches (discrete, continuous, deterministic, stochastic, analytical, numerical, algorithmic etc.) is the fundamental open question and research challenge in cancer informatics.
