Hypoxia Signals Autophagy in Tumor Cells Via AMPK Activity, Independent of HIF-1, BNIP3, and BNIP3L
Here we report that oxygen deprivation can activate the autophagic pathway in human cancer cell lines. We observed that hypoxia induced distinct cellular changes characteristic of autophagy such as an…

Image-Guided Surgical Navigation in Implant-Based Auricular Reconstruction
In cases where surgical reconstruction is not an option, placement of osseo-integrated implants for an auricular prosthesis can be done in 1 or 2 stages in a relatively short period…

Discovering Class Specific Composite Features Through Discriminative Sampling with Swendsen-Wang Cut
This paper proposes a novel approach to discover a set of class specific composite features as the feature pool for the detection and classification of complex objects using AdaBoost.

Matching Vehicles Under Large Pose Transformations Using Approximate 3D Models and Piecewise MRF Model
We propose a robust object recognition method based on approximate 3D models that can effectively match objects under large viewpoint changes and partial occlusion.

Systematic Biological Prioritization After a Genome-Wide Association Study: an Application to Nicotine Dependence
We introduce a method for systematically prioritizing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for further study after a GWAS. The method combines evidence across multiple domains including statistical evidence of genotype–phenotype correlation,…

Building Segmentation for Densely Built Urban Regions Using Aerial LIDAR Data
We present a novel building segmentation system for densely built areas, containing thousands of buildings per square kilometer.

Geo-Spatial Aerial Video Processing for Scene Understanding and Object Tracking
This paper presents an approach to extracting and using semantic layers from low altitude aerial videos for scene understanding and object tracking.

Real-Time Global Localization with a Pre-Built Visual Landmark Database
In this paper, we study how to build a vision-based system for global localization with accuracies within 10 cm. for robots and humans operating both indoors and outdoors over wide…

Collision Sensing by Stereo Vision and Radar Sensor Fusion
To take the advantages of both stereo cameras and radar, this paper proposes a fusion approach to accurately estimate the location, size, pose and motion information of a threat vehicle…
