Persistent Gender and Racial Hierarchies: Marriage Migration and Mixedness in Morocco from the French Protectorate to the Present by Catherine Therrien, Catherine Phipps

“…This interdisciplinary approach combines historic data (primarily from a 1949 study into mixed marriages conducted by the colonial government as well as magazines, novels and memoirs) with 52 anthropological semi-structured interviews (conducted in Morocco between 2018 and 2022) with children of mixed couples and some of their parents.We examine first how the demographic make-up of mixed couples and where they choose to settle has shifted, looking at their gender split, their countries of origin, their occupations and where they met. …”

Nursing Analysis Based on Medical Imaging Technology before and after Coronary Angiography in Cardiovascular Medicine by Qin Li, Yangyang Yuan, Guangyu Song, Yonghua Liu

“…The algorithm first decomposes the preregistered source medical image by NSST, takes the subimages of different scales as training images, and optimizes the subdictionaries of different scales; then convolution and sparse the subimages on each scale encoding to obtain the sparse coefficients of different subimages; secondly, the combination of improved L1 norm and improved spatial frequency (novel sum-modified SF (NMSF)) is used for high-frequency subimage coefficients, and the fusion of low-frequency subimages improved the rule of combining the L1 norm and the regional energy; finally, the final fused image is obtained by inverse NSST of the fused low-frequency subband and high-frequency subband. …”
