The accurate segmentation of the optic disc (OD) offers an important cue to extract other retinal features in an automated diagnostic system, which in turn will assist ophthalmologists to track many retinopathy conditions such as glaucoma. Research contributions regarding the OD segmentation is on… |

BACKGROUND: issues and limitations related to accessibility, understandability and ease of use of signalling pathway databases may hamper or divert research workflow, leading, in the worst case, to the generation of confusing reference frameworks and misinterpretation of experimental results. In an… |

A prey-predator system with logistic growth of prey and hunting cooperation of predators is studied. The introduction of fractional time derivatives and the related persistent memory strongly characterize the model behavior, as many dynamical systems in the applied sciences are well described by… |

The physical behavior of a class of mesoscopic models for multiphase flows is analyzed in details near interfaces. In particular, an extended pseudopotential method is developed, which permits to tune the equation of state and surface tension independently of each other. The spurious velocity… |

Continuing our analytic computation of the first-order self-force contribution to Detweiler's redshift variable we provide the exact expressions of the ninth and ninth-and-a-half post-Newtonian terms. |

The state-of-the-art deep learning-based object recognition YOLO algorithm and object tracking DeepSORT algorithm are combined to analyze digital images from fluid dynamic simulations of multi-core emulsions and soft flowing crystals and to track moving droplets within these complex flows. The YOLO… |

We derive the pair correlation function of spatial Hawkes processes and discuss its connections with the Bartlett spectrum and other summary statistics. |

In the framework of variable exponent Sobolev spaces, we prove that the variational eigenvalues defined by inf sup procedures of Rayleigh ratios for the Luxemburg norms are all stable under uniform convergence of the exponents. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |

In this paper we introduce new variables that can be used to
retrieve the atmospheric continuum emission in the inversion of remote
sensing measurements. This modification tackles the so-called sloppy model
problem. We test this approach on an extensive set of real measurements
from the Michelson… |
