The Effects of the Complexity of 3D Virtual Objects on Visual Working Memory Capacity in AR Interface for Mobile Phones by Xingcheng Di, Jing Zhang, Shangsong Jiang, Wei Xu, Nuowen Zhang

“…Three measurements (reaction time, proportion correct, and Cowan’s K) were analyzed for nine experimental conditions (three object complexity levels and three object set sizes). The results confirmed that the visual working memory capacity in mobile AR interfaces is modulated by the complexity of the 3D virtual objects and set size, which decreases with the increase in complexity and set size of the displayed 3D virtual objects. …”

Using the antibody-antigen binding interface to train image-based deep neural networks for antibody-epitope classification. by Daniel R Ripoll, Sidhartha Chaudhury, Anders Wallqvist

“…We hypothesized that Abs recognizing the same part of an antigen share a limited set of features at the binding interface, and that the binding site regions of these Abs share share common structure and physicochemical property patterns that can serve as a "fingerprint" to recognize uncharacterized Abs. …”

Iterative natural thresholding algorithm for seismic inversion aimed at potentially recovering geological interfaces characterized by weak reflection by Zidan Fan, Ronghuo Dai, Yue Feng

“…Through an optimal thresholding operator and a concave regularization to enforce an optimal sparse solution, INTA can potentially recover these geological interfaces characterized by weak reflection. We utilize a synthetic seismic data profile and a real seismic data set to test its feasibility and show its better protection of small reflectivity series. …”
