Delving deeper into the whorl of flower segmentation by Nilsback, M, Zisserman, A

“…This is a challenging problem because of the sheer variety of flower classes, the variability within a class and within a particular flower, and the variability of the imaging conditions – lighting, pose, foreshortening, etc.…”

Design and implementation of a synthesizable test-bench for testing the LDPC decoder IP by Yang, Shi

“…The simulation environment is mainly used for preliminary and functional checks, and the emulation environment is chosen for further verification due to its much higher run speed compared to simulation.…”

Proteomic and metabolomic analyses of the human adult myocardium reveal ventricle-specific regulation in end-stage cardiomyopathies by Hunter, B, Li, M, Parker, BL, Koay, YC, Harney, DJ, Pearson, E, Cao, J, Chen, GT, Guneratne, O, Smyth, GK, Larance, M, O’Sullivan, JF, Lal, S

“…Inter-ventricular significance of these metabolic pathways was then found to be diminished within end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy and ischaemic cardiomyopathy, while heart failure-associated pathways were increased in the left ventricle relative to the right within ischaemic cardiomyopathy, such as fluid sheer-stress, increased glutamine-glutamate ratio, and down-regulation of contractile proteins, indicating a left ventricular pathological bias.…”

Influence of non-linear wave load models on monopile supported offshore wind turbines for extreme conditions by Ryan, GV, Tang, T, McAdam, RA, Adcock, TAA

“…These models are compared to the widely used constrained wave approach, showing that significant differences are predicted for steel and geotechnical design checks. This suggests that the industry standard approach may be inappropriate for the design of monopile structures against extreme wave loads.…”
