Boltzmann energy-based image analysis demonstrates that extracellular domain size differences explain protein segregation at immune synapses. by Nigel J Burroughs, Karsten Köhler, Vladimir Miloserdov, Michael L Dustin, P Anton van der Merwe, Daniel M Davis

“…All synapses analysed satisfy these conditions demonstrating that the mechanisms of protein redistribution have identifiable signatures in their spatial patterns. We conclude that energy processes implicit in protein size based segregation can drive the patternation observed in individual synapses, at least for the specific examples tested, such that no additional processes need to be invoked. …”

Image Reconstruction Algorithm Based on Extreme Learning Machine for Electrical Capacitance Tomography by SU Ziheng, CHEN Deyun, WANG Lili

“…Aiming at the problem that the traditional ECT is not accurate in complex situations, this paper proposes a depth learning based inversion method Through the improvement and optimization of the traditional extreme learning machine, the image feature information obtained by the reconstructed image method is used as the training data, and the result obtained by inputting the data into the predictive model is used as the prior information The cost function is used to encapsulate the prior knowledge and domain expertise, and spatial regularizers and time regularizers are introduced to enhance sparsity The separated Bregman (SB) algorithm and the iterative shrinkage threshold (FIST) method are used to solve the specified cost function The final imaging result is obtained The simulation results show that the image reconstructed by this method has less than 10% error compared with the original flow pattern, and reduces artifacts and distortion, which improves the reconstructed image quality…”

Argillipedoturbation and the development of rock fragment covers on Vertisols in the Ethiopian Highlands by Jan Nyssen, Jan Moeyersons, Jean Poesen, Mitiku Haile, Jozef A. Deckers

“…Given this stratigraphic situation and the activity of Vertisols in the study area, the rock fragment covers are thought to be squeezed up as a consequence of argillipedoturbation accompanying swell-shrink cycles in the Vertic horizon. The spatial distribution of upsqueezed rock fragments closely follows the polygonal pattern of crack bundles on top of the Vertisol. …”
