Article Abstract

Three-dimensional electric field sensors (3D EFSs) can simultaneously measure electric field components in three mutually orthogonal directions and comprehensively capture the spatial distribution and dynamic changes of the electric field. They can be widely used in atmospheric science, smart grids, aerospace, target detection, and other fields. This paper deeply analyzes the latest progress in 3D EFSs, focusing on four major types of sensors: DC field mill, electro-optic effect, capacitive sensing, and microelectromechanical system (MEMS). It elaborates on their working principles, structural design, and decoupling calibration methods. At the same time, the advantages and disadvantages of various types of 3D EFSs and their applications in different fields are analyzed. Finally, the challenges faced by 3D EFS technology and its future development direction are discussed.

Background: Deformable medical image registration is a critical task in medical imaging-assisted diagnosis and treatment. In recent years, medical image registration methods based on deep learning have made significant success by leveraging prior knowledge, and the registration accuracy and computational efficiency have been greatly improved. Models based on Transformers have achieved better performance than convolutional neural network methods (ConvNet) in image registration.

Objectives: In patients with cochlear implants, tools for measuring intracochlear electric environment as well as neural responses to electrical stimulation are widely available. This study aimed to investigate the possible correlation of changes in the responsiveness of the auditory nerve measured by neural response telemetry with changes in the peak and spread of the intracochlear electric field measured by transimpedance matrix (TIM) in patients implanted with straight electrode arrays.

Design: In this retrospective study, we analyzed a cohort of 144 ears of 113 consecutive patients who were implanted with Slim Straight electrode array (Cochlear Ltd.

Background: Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have enabled the collection and sharing of a massive amount of omics data, along with its associated metadata-descriptive information that contextualizes the data, including phenotypic traits and experimental design. Enhancing metadata availability is critical to ensure data reusability and reproducibility and to facilitate novel biomedical discoveries through effective data reuse. Yet, incomplete metadata accompanying public omics data may hinder reproducibility and reusability and limit secondary analyses.
