Multi-exposure fusion(MEF) are techniques to obtain the high dynamic range. One of MEF methods, guided filtering-based fusion(GFF) has good performance for preserving details of original images. However, GFF method considers only details, which causes a problem of missing color information. To solve this problem, we proposed a saliency map-based approach for considering both detail and color in...

Aynı sahneye ait iki ya da daha fazla düşük dinamik alana (LDR) sahip görüntülerden yüksek (HDR) tek bir görüntü elde etme yöntemlerine çoklu-pozlamalı birleştirme (MEF) denir. Bu çalışmada MEF için derin öğrenme (DL) modellerinden evrişimli sinir ağı (CNN) kullanan yeni yöntem önerilmiştir. Önerilen yöntemde ilk adımda CNN modeli kullanılarak kaynak haritası (fmap) edilmiştir. Birleştirilmiş g...

The present study aimed to determine the incidence of erm(B) and mef(A) among macrolide-resistant S. pneumoniae isolated in children with pneumonia Nghe An province (2019-2021). A total 126 clinical pnemococcal strains from unvaccinated less than 5 years age at Obstetrics Pediatrics Hospital, Vietnam during period Nov 2019 Dec 2021. All were identified using conventional microbiological method,...

Aberrant regulation of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the mechanisms involved remain elusive. Our recent study shows that GSK-3 impairs lysosomal acidification and that inhibition of GSK-3 re-acidified lysosomes in brains of AD mice. This effect was accompanied by reductions in β-amyloid pathology and amelioration of cognitive deficits. Preseni...

We characterize the mechanisms implicated in an unusual phenotype of resistance to macrolides-lincosamides (no halos of inhibition around clindamycin and lincomycin discs, and a 15 mm halo around erythromycin disc) in a Streptococcus agalactiae isolate recovered in Spain. The presence of macrolide or lincosamide resistance genes [erm(A), erm(B), erm(C), erm(T), mef(A), mrs(A), lnu(A), lnu(B), l...

embryonic stem cells (escs) are originally derived from the icm of blastocysts and are characterized by their ability to self-renew and their pluripotencies. only a few reports have been published on esc isolations and line establishment in animals, even fewer in horses. however, it is still important to isolate equine escs for animal biotechnology and therapeutic applications. in the present s...

The epidemiologic relatedness of 29 erythromycin-resistant Gemella sp. strains from normal flora, characterized previously, were evaluated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Three isolates carried the tet(O) gene and the tet(M) gene. The msr(A) gene was found in two Gemella morbillorum strains in combination with the erm(B) or mef(E) gene. The sequences of the mef(A/E), erm(B), and msr...

The prevalence and mechanisms of macrolide resistance among 1,007 clinical pneumococcal isolates collected in Finland were investigated. Of these, 217 (21.5%) were resistant to erythromycin and 11% to clindamycin. Among the erythromycin-resistant isolates, mef(E) was present in 95 isolates (44%), mef(A) was present in 12 isolates (6%), and erm(B) was present in 90 isolates (41%). A double mecha...

In this study, a multiplex rapid cycle PCR with microwell-format probe hybridization method was developed to perform high-volume screening for macrolide resistance determinants in isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes. The method was then utilized to determine the distribution of macrolide resistance mechanisms in recent isolates of S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes from G...

A novel technological approach to space division multiplexing (SDM) based on the use of multiple individual fibers embedded in a common polymer coating material is presented, which is referred to as Multi-Element Fiber (MEF). The approach ensures ultralow crosstalk between spatial channels and allows for cost-effective ways of realizing multi-spatial channel amplification and signal multiplexin...
