Surveillance videos contain a considerable amount of data, wherein interesting information to the user is sparsely distributed. Researchers construct video synopsis that contain key information extracted from a surveillance video for efficient browsing and analysis. Geospatial–temporal information of a surveillance video plays an important role in the efficient description of video content. Mea...

This thesis describes a study to perform change detection on Very High Resolution satellite images using image fusion based on 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform and Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. Multiple other methods are also quantitatively and qualitatively compared in this study.

Designing and producing a proper fusion construction is the most important problem of producing large quantities of a properly folded functional protein. This construction should have all necessary components of a real gene. A good designed fusion gene construction could be cloned into a good and suitable host. Clostridium perfringens is an important pathogen of humans and livestock and produce...

Detection of brain tissues using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an active and challenging research area in computational neuroscience. Brain MRI artifacts lead to an uncertainty in pixel values. Therefore, brain MRI segmentation is a complicated concern which is tackled by a novel data fusion approach. The proposed algorithm has two main steps. In the first step the brain MRI is divided to...

background: one of the important sites for extrapulmonary tb involvement is the skeleton. tuberculous spondylitis (pott’s disease) comprises 50-70% of the skeletal tuberculosis. methods: in this case series study, we prospectively investigated the result of anterior surgery alone (anterior debridement, fusion and instrumentation) in the patients with spinal tuberculosis. the patients with immat...

Refolding of viral class-1 membrane fusion proteins from a native state to a trimer-of-hairpins structure promotes entry of viruses into cells. Here we present the structure of the bovine leukaemia virus transmembrane glycoprotein (TM) and identify a group of asparagine residues at the membrane-distal end of the trimer-of-hairpins that is strikingly conserved among divergent viruses. These aspa...

Microscopic level interaction between fusion-peptides and lipid bilayer membranes plays a crucial role in membrane fusion, a key step of viral infection. In this paper, we use coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) simulations to study the interaction between hemagglutinin fusion-peptides and phospholipid bilayer membranes. With CGMD, we are able to simulate the interaction of fusion peptides...

FusionDB (http://igs-server.cnrs-mrs.fr/FusionDB/) constitutes a resource dedicated to in-depth analysis of bacterial and archaeal gene fusion events. Such events can provide the 'Rosetta stone' in the search for potential protein-protein interactions, as well as metabolic and regulatory networks. However, the false positive rate of this approach may be quite high, prompting a detailed scrutiny...

The purpose of the AMDF Cluster is to investigate the benefits that data fusion, and related techniques, may bring to future military Intelligence Surveillance Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) systems. In the course of this work it is intended to showcase the practical application of some of the best multi-dimensional fusion research in the United Kingdom. This paper highlights wor...

Neurotransmitter release from synaptic vesicle fusion is the fundamental mechanism for neuronal communication at synapses. Evoked release following an action potential has been well characterized for its function in activating the postsynaptic cell, but the significance of spontaneous release is less clear. Using transgenic tools to image single synaptic vesicle fusion events at individual rele...
