Sulforaphane acutely activates multiple starvation response pathways by Kendra S. Plafker, Constantin Georgescu, Nathan Pezant, Atul Pranay, Scott M. Plafker

“…., cancer, diabetes, seizures) that are likewise mitigated by dietary restrictions leading us to test the hypothesis that this compound elicits cellular responses consistent with being a fasting/caloric restriction mimetic. Using immortalized human retinal pigment epithelial cells, we report that SFN impacted multiple nutrient-sensing pathways consistent with a fasted state. …”

Ship detection optimization method in SAR imagery based on multi-feature weighting by Quanhua ZHAO, Xiao WANG, Yu LI, Guanghui WANG

“…Aiming at the problem that the accuracy of traditional ship detection algorithms is not satisfying in complex scene with many false alarm targets,a ship detection optimization method in SAR imagery based on multi-feature weighting was proposed.Firstly,the marker-based watershed algorithm was employed to remove land from SAR amplitude image.Then,the CFAR algorithm based on log-normal distribution was used to obtain candidate targets from no land image.Furthermore,the length to width ratio,the ship area and the contrast ratio of the candidate targets were extracted.Finally,a variance coefficient method was proposed to distribute the weight of the three features,and the confidence levels were calculated by combining the normalized feature vectors of the candidate targets with the feature weight.By determining the best confidence level,false alarm targets among the candidate targets were removed to optimize ship detection results.In order to verify the proposed method,experiments were carried on with the GF-3 SAR images of different complex scenes.The experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective.…”
