We develop and evaluate a novel data compression strategy for visual SLAM centered on traveled trajectory analysis. Beyond compressing scene structure based purely on geometrical information as commonly done, we aim at developing representations that are useful for re-exploration, that use low memory footprint and low CPU computation. Our work is evaluated on data collected from a visual sensor...

We propose new ADHM-like methods to compute the Coulomb branch instanton partition functions of 5D and 6D supersymmetric gauge theories, with certain exceptional groups or matters. study ${G}_{2}$ theories ${n}_{\mathbf{7}}\ensuremath{\le}3$ matters in $\mathbf{7}$ $SO(7)$ ${n}_{\mathbf{8}}\ensuremath{\le}4$ spinor representation $\mathbf{8}$. also elliptic genera self-dual strings SCFTs matter...

We read the article of Jacobs et al. (3) with interest. The authors reported they could identify serotype 6C Streptococcus pneumoniae using factor 6d, which was developed by Statens Serum Institut, Copenhagen, Denmark. We immunized a rabbit with one serotype 6C isolate identified with a monoclonal antibody (MAb6C) in the U.S. lab in which the new type was found. Based on absorption with serotyp...

Recent studies demonstrate that alternative splicing of mRNA from a single gene can produce two forms of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1): a six-immunoglobulin (Ig) domain form (VCAM-6D) and a seven-Ig domain form (VCAM-7D). Using a COS cell transient expression assay, we investigated whether VCAM-6D and VCAM-7D differ functionally in adhesion to the integrin VLA-4 (CD49d/CD29) on lym...

Mutations induced by radiation are widely used for developing new varieties of plants. To better understand the frequency and pattern of irradiation-induced chromosomal rearrangements, we irradiated the dry seeds of Chinese Spring (CS)-Dasypyrum villosum nullisomic-tetrasomic (6A/6D) addition (6V) line (2n = 44), WD14, with (60)Co-γ-rays at dosages of 100, 200, and 300 Gy. The M₀ and M₁ generat...
