The extraction of representative key-frames from video shots is very important in video processing and analysis, since it constitutes the basis for several important tasks such as video shot summarization, browsing and retrieval as well as high-level video segmentation. The extracted key-frames should capture a great percentage of the information of a shot content, while at the same time they s...

A fast method for super-resolution (SR) reconstruction from low resolution (LR) frames with known registration is proposed. The irregular LR samples are incorporated into the SR grid by stamping into 4-nearest neighbors with position certainties. The signal certainty reflects the errors in the LR pixels’ positions (computed by cross-correlation or optic flow) and their intensities. Adaptive nor...

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) r mutants, which were defective in fusion function, were isolated from fusion inducing strains G7471 and G51, and classified into several groups by complementation (Yamamoto and Kabuta, 1977; Yamamoto et al. 1989). Marker rescue experiments of intact DNA from r mutants with EcoRI fragments of G7471 DNA revealed that the r mutations belonging to the groups A, ...

Patients with multiple failures of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are challenging limb salvage cases. Twenty one patients over the last 10 years were referred to our service for knee fusion by arthroplasty surgeons who felt they were not candidates for revision TKA. Active infection was present in 76.2% and total bone loss averaged 6.6 cm. Lengthening was performed in 7/22 patients. Total time i...

Thus to obtain HPV-16 L1 and L2 proteins for serological studies, we have produced fusion proteins with cleavable polyhistidine tails to permit purification on nickel affinity columns. HPV-16 L1 and L2 open readin frames (from HPV-16 isolate 112 [l]? were cloned into the Nco-1 sites of pAcSGHis (C) and pAcSGHis (A) vectors which were transfected into Sf-21 cells with wild type AcMNPV. The resul...

Our MED 13 system is an extension of our MED 12 system [12, 13], and consists of a collection of lowlevel and high-level features, feature-specific classifiers built upon those features, and a fusion system that combines features both through mid-level kernel fusion and late fusion. Our MED submissions include total of 24 different configurations which consist of combinations of 2 submission ti...

Real-time fault detection in power distribution networks has become a popular issue current systems. However, the low and computational capabilities of edge devices often fail to meet requirements real-time detection. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes lightweight algorithm, named Comprehensive-YOLOv5, for identifying defects networks. The proposed method focuses on achieving rap...

Partial frames provide a rich context in which to do pointfree structured and unstructured topology. A small collection of axioms of an elementary nature allows one to do much traditional pointfree topology, both on the level of frames or locales, and that of uniform or metric frames. These axioms are sufficiently general to include as examples bounded distributive...

The orchid DSCKX1 is a new member of the cytokinin oxidase gene family, which catalyses the degradation of cytokinins bearing unsaturated isoprenoid side chains. A 3.7 kb fragment upstream of the DSCKX1 coding region was isolated, sequenced and characterized by deletion analysis of DSCKX1::beta-glucuronidase gene fusions using transient orchid and stable Arabidopsis transformation systems. Func...

In this paper, we define super Hilbert module and investigate frames in this space. Super Hilbert modules are  generalization of super Hilbert spaces in Hilbert C*-module setting. Also, we define frames in a super Hilbert module and characterize them by using of the concept of g-frames in a Hilbert C*-module. Finally, disjoint frames in Hilbert C*-modules are introduced and investigated.
