Research on a Particle Filtering Multi-Target Tracking Algorithm for Distributed Systems by Bing Han, Zilong Ge, Zhigang Su, Jingtang Hao

“…In the proposed method, we fuse direct and coupled measurements via optimization and then build a cost function to optimize the particle weights. Comparative evaluations across motion models, noise levels, and the number of targets demonstrate the outperforming performance of the proposed method compared to conventional particle filtering and the unscented Kalman filtering algorithm, with more than 7% accuracy improvement over baselines. …”

Regulacje prawne stanów szczególnego zagrożenia państwa w debacie parlamentarnej II Rzeczypospolitej by Piotr Krzysztof Marszałek

“…The fulfilment of that need is decisive for an individual and therefore the real, or even only implied, endangerment of one's living, or the living of those to whom one feels close, is particularly painful. The protective function exercised by a state is nothing more than the engagement of relevant measures to maintain security when a certain public good is being endangered. …”

ATBHC-YOLO: aggregate transformer and bidirectional hybrid convolution for small object detection by Dandan Liao, Jianxun Zhang, Ye Tao, Xie Jin

“…Secondly, the BHC-FB module is proposed to address the large-scale variance of small objects and enhance the perception of local features. Finally, a more appropriate loss function, WIoU, is used to penalise the quality variance of small object samples and further enhance the model’s detection accuracy. …”

TIM3 Mediates T Cell Exhaustion during Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection. by Pushpa Jayaraman, Miye K Jacques, Chen Zhu, Katherine M Steblenko, Britni L Stowell, Asaf Madi, Ana C Anderson, Vijay K Kuchroo, Samuel M Behar

“…We find that TIM3 expressing T cells accumulate during chronic infection, co-express other inhibitory receptors including PD1, produce less IL-2 and TNF but more IL-10, and are functionally exhausted. Finally, we show that TIM3 blockade restores T cell function and improves bacterial control, particularly in chronically infected susceptible mice. …”
