Self-Assembled Monolayers for Dental Implants by Sidónio C. Freitas, Alejandra Correa-Uribe, M. Cristina L. Martins, Alejandro Pelaez-Vargas

“…The ability to control the composition and properties of SAMs precisely through synthesis (i.e., the synthetic chemistry of organic compounds with a wide range of functional groups is well established and in general very simple, being commercially available), combined with the simple methods to pattern their functional groups on complex geometry appliances, makes them a good system for fundamental studies regarding the interaction between surfaces, proteins, and cells, as well as to engineering surfaces in order to develop new biomaterials.…”

Facing the fear: a scaffolding approach to teaching life sciences undergraduates R coding by Elena Paci, Alex Swainson, Nadia L. Cerminara

“…We suggest the reasons for this are barriers faced by both students and staff, which coalesce into a general fear surrounding the topic. From reservations surrounding the complexity of the topic and time input required, to the increased staffing load, there are several factors which contribute to a lack of coding proficiency in Life Sciences curricula. …”

Image forgery detection algorithm based on U-shaped detection network by Zhuzhu WANG

“…Aiming at the defects of traditional image tampering detection algorithm relying on single image attribute,low applicability and current high time-complexity detection algorithm based on deep learning,an U-shaped detection network image forgery detection algorithm was proposed.Firstly,the multi-stage feature information in the image by using the continuous convolution layers and the max-pooling layers was extracted by U-shaped detection network,and then the obtained feature information to the resolution of the input image through the upsampling operation was restored.At the same time,in order to ensure higher detection accuracy while extracting high-level semantic information of the image,the output features of each stage in U-shaped detection network would be merged with the corresponding output features through the upsampling layer.Further the hidden feature information between tampered and un-tampered regions in the image upon the characteristics of the general network was explored by U-shaped detection network,which could be realized quickly by using its end-to-end network structure and extracting the attributes of strong correlation information among image contexts that could ensure high-precision detection results.Finally,the conditional random field was used to optimize the output of the U-shaped detection network to obtain a more exact detection results.The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms those traditional forgery detection algorithms based on single image attribute and the current deep learning-based detection algorithm,and has good robustness.…”
