What Dicey forgot by Barber, NW

“…This chapter argues that the imperial critique of Dicey is correct, but that the remedy can be found in Dicey’s own work, in his discussion of sovereignty and in the hints he dropped about the social basis of the rule of law. In each case, a link is drawn between the community and the law that regulates it, a link that renders the rule of law morally defensible and efficacious. …”

Structural and biochemical mechanisms of NLRP1 inhibition by DPP9 by Huang, Menghang, Zhang, Xiaoxiao, Toh, Gee Ann, Gong, Qin, Wang, Jia, Han, Zhifu, Wu, Bin, Zhong, Franklin, Chai, Jijie

“…Here we present structural and biochemical evidence that full-length rat NLRP1 (rNLRP1) and rat DPP9 (rDPP9) form a 2:1 complex that contains an autoinhibited rNLRP1 molecule and an active UPA-CARD fragment of rNLRP1. The ZU5 domain is required not only for autoinhibition of rNLRP1 but also for assembly of the 2:1 complex. …”

Combined 2D and 3D features for robust RGB-D visual odometry by Cai, Pei

“…Some works attempt to address this issue by incorporating line features. However, these methods still extract line features merely based on 2D RGB images, resulting in a restricted utilization of the environment’s 3D structural information and therefore providing only limited performance improvement. …”
