Salient keypoint detectors and compact feature descriptors for 3D perception by Prakhya, Sai Manoj

“…The first two steps of various 3D perception applications, such as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), 3D object recognition, retrieval and 3D reconstruction, are 1. 3D Keypoint Detection - Detect meaningful 3D points of interest that can efficiently represent the input 3D point cloud. 2. 3D Feature Description - Represent the 3D neighbourhood of the detected keypoints with a multi-dimensional vector to determine keypoint correspondences. …”

Computational analysis for infectious diseases surveillance and host-pathogen interactions (in the context of Influenza A viruses) by Beyene, Biruhalem Taye

“…To compare the expression changes between the three species, we performed comprehensive probe set re-annotation and human ortholog mapping. The result showed that the expression signatures of different IAV isolates in a single species cell type are more similar to each other compared to the expression signatures of a single isolate in different species’ cell types. …”

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. …”
