Correlation plenoptic imaging (CPI) is an optical technique based on intensity correlation measurement, which enables detecting, within fundamental physical limits, both the spatial distribution and direction of light in a scene. This provides possibility to perform tasks such as three-dimensional reconstruction refocusing different planes. Compared with standard devices, direct CPI overcomes p...

A critical concern of autonomous vehicles is safety. Different approaches have tried to enhance driving safety to reduce the number of fatal crashes and severe injuries. As an example, Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) systems warn the driver when the vehicle exceeds the recommended speed limit. However, these systems only take into account fixed speed limits without considering factors like r...

background: surgical site infection is known as a common complication after cardiac surgery, and cefazolin is the best prophylactic antibiotic to prevent this complication. the goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of continuous and intermittent cefazolin for the prevention of superficial surgical site infection following off-pump coronary artery bypass (opcab). methods: this prospectiv...

there is limited literature on how to engage the rural women in agriculture and improve their contributions to household food security and income. this study aimed to contribute to literature on women engagement in agriculture through vegetable production using good agricultural practices. the empirical data used were drawn from technology demonstrations and experimentation, learning fields, an...

We provide a representation for the scaling limit of the d = 2 critical Ising magnetization field as a (conformal) random field by using Schramm-Loewner Evolution clusters and associated renormalized area measures. The renormalized areas are from the scaling limit of the critical Fortuin-Kasteleyn clusters and the random field is a convergent sum of the area measures with random signs. Extensio...

We present a new approach for interactive solid animation. It allows a user to efficiently trade-off accuracy for speed, making complicated structures tractable in interactive time. Linearized displacement constraints are used in conjunction with an efficient iterative equation solver to perform the assembly of articulated solids. This allows the initialization of a scene and the correction of ...
