Spike-timing-based computation in sound localization. by Dan F M Goodman, Romain Brette

“…We designed a spiking neuron model which exploited this principle to locate a variety of sound sources in a virtual acoustic environment using measured human head-related transfer functions. The model was able to accurately estimate the location of previously unknown sounds in both azimuth and elevation (including front/back discrimination) in a known acoustic environment. …”

Implanted miniaturized antenna for brain computer interface applications: analysis and design. by Yujuan Zhao, Robert L Rennaker, Chris Hutchens, Tamer S Ibrahim

“…While the results show that the effects of the human head shape on implanted antenna performance is somewhat negligible, the constitutive properties of the brain tissues surrounding the implanted antenna can significantly impact the electrical characteristics (input impedance, and operational frequency) of the implanted antenna. …”

In-vivo and numerical analysis of the eigenmodes produced by a multi-level Tic-Tac-Toe head transmit array for 7 Tesla MRI. by Tales Santini, Yujuan Zhao, Sossena Wood, Narayanan Krishnamurthy, Junghwan Kim, Nadim Farhat, Salem Alkhateeb, Tiago Martins, Minseok Koo, Tiejun Zhao, Howard J Aizenstein, Tamer S Ibrahim

“…Corresponding finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations were performed and experimental B1+ field maps were acquired using a homogeneous spherical phantom and human head (in-vivo). The quadrature mode is the most efficient and it excites the central brain regions; the opposite-phase mode excites the brain peripheral regions; anti-quadrature mode excites the head periphery; and the zero-phase mode excites cerebellum and temporal lobes. …”

Combining multiple spatial statistics enhances the description of immune cell localisation within tumours by Bull, J, Macklin, P, Quaiser, T, Braun, F, Waters, S, Pugh, C, Byrne, H

“…In this study, we apply three spatial statistics to locations of CD68+ macrophages within human head and neck tumours, and show that images grouped semi-quantitatively by a pathologist share similar statistics. …”

Identification of compounds that bind the centriolar protein SAS-6 and inhibit its oligomerisation by Busch, J, Matsoukas, M-T, Musgaard, M, Spyroulias, G, Biggin, P, Vakonakis, I

“…Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations starting from SAS-6 head domain crystallographic structures, including that of the human head domain which we now resolve, suggest that ligand specificity derives from favorable Van der Waals interactions with a hydrophobic cavity at the dimerization site.…”

A Comparison of Semilandmarking Approaches in the Visualisation of Shape Differences by Wuyang Shui, Antonio Profico, Paul O’Higgins

“…The performance of three landmark-driven semilandmarking approaches is assessed using two different surface mesh datasets with different degrees of variation and complexity: adult human head and ape cranial surfaces. Surfaces fitted to estimates of the mean and allometrically scaled landmark and semilandmark configurations arising from geometric morphometric analyses of these datasets are compared between semilandmarking approaches and different densities, as well as with those from warping to landmarks alone. …”
