YOLOv9-GDV: A Power Pylon Detection Model for Remote Sensing Images by Ke Zhang, Ningxuan Zhang, Chaojun Shi, Qiaochu Lu, Xian Zheng, Yujie Cao, Xiaoyun Zhang, Jiyuan Yang

“…Finally, the Variable Minimum Point Distance Intersection over Union (VMPDIoU) loss is proposed to optimize the model’s loss function. This method employs variable input parameters to directly calculate key point distances between predicted and ground-truth boxes, more accurately reflecting positional differences between detection results and reference targets, thus effectively improving the model’s mean Average Precision (mAP). …”

The proteome of circulating extracellular vesicles and their functional effect on platelets vary with the isolation method by Eva M. Fernández-Sáez, Susana B. Bravo, Carmen Pena, Ángel García

“…Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication and serve as a source of biomarkers in several pathologies. In this study, we aimed to characterize plasma-derived EVs isolated by ultracentrifugation (UC) or size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to define the best method for proteomic and functional studies. …”

A Contrast-Enhanced Approach for Aerial Moving Target Detection Based on Distributed Satellites by Yu Li, Hansheng Su, Jinming Chen, Weiwei Wang, Yingbin Wang, Chongdi Duan, Anhong Chen

“…This method compensates for the range difference rather than the target range. In the detection period, we develop two weighting functions, i.e., the Doppler frequency rate (DFR) variance function and smooth spatial filtering function, to extract prominent areas and make efficient detection, respectively. …”
