Real-Time Heterogeneous Collaborative Perception in Edge-Enabled Vehicular Environments by Samuel Thornton, Nithin Santhanam, Rajeev Chhajer, Sujit Dey

“…To address these challenges, we propose a Heterogeneous Adaptive Collaborative Perception (HAdCoP) framework which utilizes a Context-aware Latency Prediction Network (CaLPeN) to intelligently select which vehicles should transmit their sensor data, the specific individual and collaborative perception tasks, and the amount of computational offloading that should be utilized given information about the current state of the environment. Additionally, we propose an Adaptive Perception Frequency (APF) model to determine the optimal end-to-end latency requirement according to the current state of the environment. …”

High-Resolution High-Squint Large-Scene Spaceborne Sliding Spotlight SAR Processing via Joint 2D Time and Frequency Domain Resampling by Mingshan Ren, Heng Zhang, Weidong Yu

“…Due to the nonlinear beam rotation during HHL data acquisition, the Doppler centroid varies nonlinearly with azimuth time and traditional sub-aperture approaches and two step approach fail to remove the inertial Doppler aliasing of spaceborne sliding spotlight SAR data. In addition, curved orbit effect and long synthetic aperture time make the range histories difficult to model and introduce space-variants in both range and azimuth. …”

Microglia and Immune cells interactions in multiple sclerosis cognitive impairment: a postmortem study by Catarina Barros, Ainhoa Alberro, Adelaide Fernandes

“…In high synaptic density hippocampal regions, MSCI patients exhibited a massive presence of microglia cells actively engulfing both excitatory and inhibitory synapses, accompanied by morphological alterations. Additionally, there was an increased expression of the complement protein C1q particularly localized at inhibitory synapses within microglia cells, suggesting a preferential engulfment of complement-tagged inhibitory synapses in MSCI patients. …”
