Blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a natural protective membrane that prevents central nervous
system (CNS) from toxins and pathogens in blood. However, the presence of BBB complicates …

Deep learning models stand for a new learning paradigm in artificial intelligence (AI) and
machine learning. Recent breakthrough results in image analysis and speech recognition have …

We present a novel face recognition algorithm based on the point signature-a representation
for free-form surfaces. We treat the face recognition problem as a non-rigid object …

It has been reported that ischemic insult increases the formation of autophagosomes and
activates autophagy. However, the role of autophagy in ischemic neuronal damage remains …

Spontaneous waves of activity propagating across large cortical areas may play important
roles in sensory processing and circuit refinement. However, whether these waves are in turn …

Object detection has made tremendous progress in natural images over the last decade.
However, the results are hardly satisfactory when the natural image object detection algorithm …

The purpose of this book is to introduce the basic knowledge about the classic elasticity
theory and the associated newly research achievements by the authors. The whole book is

In this paper, an exact solution is presented for the multilayered rectangular plate made of
functionally graded, anisotropic, and linear magneto-electro-elastic materials. While the edges …

Theropods have traditionally been assumed to have lost manual digits from the lateral side
inward, which differs from the bilateral reduction pattern seen in other tetrapod groups. This …

The architectonic structure of the Chinese system is based upon two principles: lineal and
collateral differentiation, and generation stratification. The former is a vertical, and the latter a …
