Comparison of models to predict incident chronic liver disease: a systematic review and external validation in Chinese adults by Cong, X, Song, S, Li, Y, Song, K, MacLeod, C, Cheng, Y, Lv, J, Yu, C, Sun, D, Pei, P, Yang, L, Chen, Y, Millwood, I, Wu, S, Yang, X, Stevens, R, Chen, J, Chen, Z, Li, L, Kartsonaki, C, Pang, Y

“…Models with high discrimination (C-index ≥ 0.70) in CKB were as follows: (1) general population: Li-2018 and Wen 1–2012 for HCC, CLivD score (non-lab and lab) and dAAR for CLD; (2) hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected individuals: Cao-2021 for HCC and CAP-B for CLD. In CKB, all models tended to overestimate the risk (O:E ratio 0.55–0.94). …”

Lost in quantization: improving particular object retrieval in large scale image databases by Philbin, J, Chum, O, Isard, M, Sivic, J, Zisserman, A

“…A key component of these approaches is that local regions of images are characterized using high-dimensional descriptors which are then mapped to ldquovisual wordsrdquo selected from a discrete vocabulary.This paper explores techniques to map each visual region to a weighted set of words, allowing the inclusion of features which were lost in the quantization stage of previous systems. …”

Phase extraction from electronic speckle patterns by statistical analysis by Tay, Cho Jui, Quan, Chenggen, Chen, Lujie, Fu, Yu

“…The relation is used to establish a connection between the phase to be measured and the variance of grey level difference between two speckle patterns. Subsequently, a phase map wrapped in [0,π) is extracted. In order to obtain a standard 2π wrapped phase map, an initial one step phase shift is introduced. …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…Spun-cast single chains were largely found to give neat intensity traces exhibiting discrete emission levels and clear off-states, suggesting a compact and collapsed disordered conformation favoring efficient energy funneling to one or a few low-energy exciton traps. These emissive centers of the collapsed chain were proposed to be intrachain aggregates consisting of closely π-stacked segments, therefore possessing weak oscillator strength and an extended radiative lifetime. …”

Controlled Growth and Reliable Thickness-Dependent Properties of Organic-Inorganic Perovskite Platelet Crystal by Niu, Lin, Zeng, Qingsheng, Shi, Jia, Cong, Chunxiao, Wu, Chunyang, Liu, Fucai, Zhou, Jiadong, Fu, Wei, Fu, Qundong, Jin, Chuanhong, Yu, Ting, Liu, Xinfeng, Liu, Zheng

“…Furthermore, from the time-resolved photoluminescence measurements, the best optoelectronic performance of the perovskite platelet is attributed with thickness of ≈30 nm to its dominant longest lifetime (≈4.5 ns) of perovskite excitons, which means lower surface traps or defects. This work supplies an alternative to the synthesis of high-quality organic perovskite and their possible optoelectronic applications with the most suitable materials.…”
