Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an important public health problem in China. The identification of the spatiotemporal pattern of HFRS will provide a foundation for the effective control of the disease. Based on the incidence of HFRS, as well as environmental factors, and social-economic factors of China from 2005-2012, this paper identified the spatiotemporal characteristics of ...

Part Models Pablo Sala, Diego Macrini, and Sven Dickinson 1 University of Toronto, 2 Queen’s University Abstract. In recent work [1], we introduced a framework for modelIn recent work [1], we introduced a framework for modelbased perceptual grouping and shape abstraction using a vocabulary of simple part shapes. Given a user-defined vocabulary of simple abstract parts, the framework grouped ima...

The objective of this study was to investigate spatiotemporal characteristics with gait variability in patients with freezing of gait (FOG) after hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI).Eleven patients showing FOG after HIBI and 15 normal controls were consecutively enrolled. We performed gait analysis using a computerized gait system (VICON MX-T10 Motion Analysis System) and compared spatiotempor...

Introduction: Functional connectivity and spontaneous low frequency fluctuations (LFFs) in the BOLD signal [1] have gained considerable interest among the fMRI and neuroscience communities in the past few years. Current techniques for analyzing spontaneous LFFs (correlation maps, ICA, clustering) assume steady state and do not provide insight into spatiotemporal dynamics of the LFFs [1, 2, 3]. ...
