In a computer-aided system for skin cancer diagnosis, hair removal is one of the main challenges to face before applying a process of automatic skin lesion segmentation and classification. In this paper, we propose a straightforward method to detect and remove hair from dermoscopic images.… |

We consider an integro-differential model for evolutionary gametheory which describes the evolution of a population adopting mixed strategies.Using a reformulation based on the first moments of the solution, we provesome analytical properties of the model and global estimates. The… |

We analyze the dynamics of a two-dimensional system of interacting active dumbbells. We characterize the mean-square displacement, linear response function, and deviation from the equilibrium fluctuation-dissipation theorem as a function of activity strength, packing fraction, and temperature for… |

A lattice Boltzmann formulation for relativistic fluids is presented and numerically validated through quantitative comparison with recent hydrodynamic simulations of relativistic fluids. In order to illustrate its capability to handle complex geometries, the scheme is also applied to the case of a… |

We numerically study by lattice Boltzmann simulations the rheological properties of an active emulsion made of a suspension of an active polar gel embedded in an isotropic passive background. We find that the hexatic equilibrium configuration of polar droplets is highly sensitive to both active… |

Large-scale simulations of blood flow allow for the optimal evaluation of endothelial shear stress for real-life case studies in cardiovascular pathologies. The procedure for anatomic data acquisition, geometry and
mesh generation are particularly favorable if used in conjunction with the Lattice… |

In Cosmology and in Fundamental Physics there is a crucial question like: where the elusive substance that we call Dark Matter is hidden in the Universe and what is it made of? that, even after 40 years from the Vera Rubin seminal discovery [1] does not have a proper answer. Actually, the more we… |

For clathrate-hydrate polymorphic structure-type (sI versus sII), geometric recognition criteria have been developed and validated. These are applied to the study of the rich interplay and development of both sI and sII motifs in a variety of hydrate-nucleation events for methane and H2S hydrate… |
