“…A scoping review was conducted to provide an overview of the extent of sex-disaggregated data and gender analysis in outbreak response within low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).Methods Five databases were searched for peer-reviewed literature examining sex- and gender-specific outcomes for communicable disease outbreaks published in English between 1 January 2012 and 12 April 2022. An adapted version of the WHO’s Gender Analysis Matrix was used to synthesise evidence, which was then mapped across four phases of the outbreak timeline: prevention, detection, treatment/management and recovery.Results 71 articles met inclusion criteria and were included in this review. …”

LiDAR point cloud denoising for individual tree extraction based on the Noise4Denoise by Xiangfei Lu, Zongyu Ye, Liyong Fu, Huaiyi Wang, Kaiyu Wang, Yaquan Dou, Dongbo Xie, Xiaodi Zhao

“…The processing of LiDAR point cloud data is of critical importance in the context of forest resource surveys, as well as representing a pivotal element in the realm of forest physiological and ecological studies.Nonetheless, conventional denoising algorithms frequently exhibit deficiencies with regard to adaptability and denoising efficacy, particularly when employed in relation to disparate datasets.To address these issues, this study introduces DEN4, an unsupervised, deep learning-based point cloud denoising algorithm designed to improve the accuracy of single tree segmentation in LiDAR point clouds.DEN4 introduces a multilevel noise separation module that effectively distinguishes between signal and noise, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and reducing the error.The experimental results demonstrate that DEN4 significantly outperforms traditional denoising methods in several key metrics, including mean square error (MSE), SNR, Hausdorff distance, and structural similarity index (SSIM).In the 60 sample dataset, DEN4 achieved the best mean and standard deviation on all metrics: Specifically, the MSE mean was found to be 0.0094, with a standard deviation of 0.0008, the SNR mean was 149.1570, with a standard deviation of 0.5628, the Hausdorff mean was 0.8503, with a standard deviation of 0.0947, and the SSIM mean was 0.8399, with a standard deviation of 0.0054. …”
