Article Abstract

Hyperspectral imaging is a way to explore the spatial and spectral information of the different compounds in chemical or biological samples. In addition, multivariate curve resolution - alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) can be used to extract this information based on the bilinearity assumption. However, it is well-known that using proper constraints can reduce the amount of uncertainty in the results of MCR, which is called rotational ambiguity. In MCR-ALS analysis of hyperspectral images, different image processing techniques, such as model fitting, image segmentation or sparse image recovery can be applied as spatial constraints. In this contribution, we aim to investigate how the use of these spatial constraints limits the extent of rotational ambiguity of MCR-ALS solutions. For this purpose, we evaluate the extent of rotational ambiguity and use Borgen plots to visualize it. We show on simulations and real hyperspectral imaging data that accuracy of the results is improved when spatial constraints are applied.

Assessing embryo quality through segmentation of blastocyst components is crucial, as embryo morphology directly correlates with its potential for implantation. However, automatic blastocyst segmentation remains a challenging task due to factors such as poor contrast, noise, and ambiguous boundaries between different tissue structures. In this study, we introduce a novel transformer-based architecture, termed BTFormer (Blastocyst Transformer), designed to effectively segment blastocyst components.

Introduction: The discovery of a novel magnetic actuator is critical for the application of magnetogenetic technique. However, whether MagR can perceive magnetic fields is ambiguous in previous studies that evoked great interest and debate.

Material And Method: Here, the fusion protein ΔTRPV4 is constructed by genetically linking MagR to the C-terminus of truncated TRPV4, and the magnetic perception capacity of MagR is read out by TRPV4 cation channel characteristics in vitro and in vivo.

Background: Vestibular migraine (VM) and Menière's disease (MD) are spontaneous episodic vestibular syndromes and often present with overlapping features, making clinical differentiation challenging. This study aimed to (1) identify key features distinguishing VM from MD and (2) investigate discrepancies between expert diagnosis and International Classification of Vestibular Disorders (ICVD) criteria for VM.

Methods: We analyzed data from patients diagnosed with VM or MD at the tertiary dizziness center of LMU Munich.
