We present our technique for facial key point localization in the wild submitted to the 300-W challenge. Our approach begins with a nearest neighbour search using global descriptors. We then employ an alignment of local neighbours and dynamically fit a locally linear model to the global key point configurations of the returned neighbours. Neighbours are also used to define restricted areas of the...
Women have glandular tissue below the bladder and surrounding the urethra that appears to be homologous to the male prostate. This tissue (also called “female prostate” or Skene’s glands) appears to the source of a viscous, white secretion, which exits from the urethra upon sexual stimulation in some women. Analysis of this secretion (also known as “female ejaculate”), and comparison with pre-coital...
The mystery surrounding the apparent lack of iron within the macrophages of individuals with hereditary hemochromatosis, a condition of excessive uptake of dietary iron, has yet to be fully explained. We have suggested that iron deficiency of macrophages in people with hereditary hemochromatosis mutations is associated with increased resistance to infection by Yersinia and other intracellular pathogens,...
Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is a disorder associated with progressive iron overload and deposition in multiple organs. It is the most common inherited single gene disorder in people of Northern and Western European descent. About 80% of individuals of European descent with HH are homozygous for a cysteine-to-tyrosine substitution (C282Y) in the gene now called HFE. The function of HFE protein,...
