Color space transformation using a 3D lookup table (LUT) with interpolation is used to correlate the source and destination color values in the lattice points of a 3D table, where nonlattice points are interpolated by using the nearest lattice points. This method has been used in many applications with quite satisfactory results, and incorporated into the ICC profile standard.1 In this chapter,...

The article proposes a theoretical framework for the application of four scenario-planning approaches in strategic land-use and transportation (LUT) planning, focusing on city-regions. Each approach has specific role process, with distinct mode knowing: explanation (knowing what), narration how), argumentation to what end practical judgment) instrumentalization (doing). is contrasted reflection...

A method is proposed which aims to reduce the hardware in FPGA-based circuits of Mealy finite state machines (FSMs). The a type structural decomposition method. Its main goal reducing number look-up table (LUT) elements FSM compared three-block circuit. idea using codes collections outputs for replacing inputs and variables. interstate transitions are defined generated two adjacent cycles synch...

Female pelvic floor dysfunction (FPFD) is a complex group of conditions that include urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse (POP). In humans, elastin homeostasis has been implicated in the pathophysiology of FPFD. Lysyl oxidase-like 1 knockout (LOXL1-KO) mice demonstrate abnormal elastic fiber homeostasis and develop FPFD after parturition. We compared the lower urogenital tract (LUT) a...

Land surface albedo (LSA), one of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) environmental data records (EDRs), is a fundamental component for linking the land surface and the climate system by regulating shortwave energy exchange between the land and the atmosphere. Currently, the improved bright pixel sub-algorithm (BPSA) is a unique algorithm employed by VIIRS to routinely generat...

Auto-exposure(AE) control automatically calculates and adjusts the exposure of the tone of the subject to the midtone of the photograph. In the case of real-time performance, this is usually controlled by the sensor gain for consecutive input images. However, unsuitable sensor gain control methods invariably cause oscillation of the average luminance values for continuous input images, resultin...

The follicular phase (FOL) and pregnancy exhibit increases in uterine blood flow (UBF), estrogen levels, and uterine artery (UA) endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression. UA branching within the mesometrium increases the total vascular cross-sectional area, which reduces the vascular perfusion pressure gradient, thus locally decreasing the blood flow velocity. Shear stress (SS) activ...

Purpose Functional neuroimaging is a powerful and versatile tool to investigate central lower urinary tract (LUT) control. Despite the increasing body of literature there lack comprehensive overviews on LUT Thus, we aimed execute coordinate based meta-analysis all PET fMRI evidence descending control, i.e. pelvic floor muscle contraction (PFMC) micturition.
