We reviewed 47 documents published 1967–2019 that reported measurements of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on commercial aircraft. We compared the measurements with the air quality standards and guidelines for aircraft cabins and in some cases buildings. Average levels of VOCs for which limits exist were lower than the permissible levels except for benzene with average concentration at 5.9 ± 5.5 μg/m...
In this research we presented a novel method to address the issue of urbanization process from time-series MODIS products. By employing a metrics, a phenological parameter extracted from time-series MODIS data and the advantages of MODIS data with high temporal resolution and intermediate spatial resolution, a remote sensing based model for mapping urban dynamics in Wuhan city was built through integration...
The cytotoxicity of quercetin is not well understood. Using an ICR murine model, we unexpectedly found that mice exposed to 7 Gy total body irradiation (TBI) exhibited general in vivo toxicity after receiving quercetin (100 mg/kg PO), whereas this result was not observed in mice that received TBI only. In order to understand the involvement of alterations in mitochondrial biogenesis, we used a real-time...
This paper presents a simple exemplar-based method for 2D image texture synthesis. The contribution of the proposed algorithm lies in the effective combination of MEBC (minimum error boundary cut) and LBP (local binary patterns) feature. Given a texture sample, the corresponding LBP image is firstly generated, then block matching is carried out based on LBP image and the candidate block with MEBC...
This paper proposes a novel colorization algorithm for monochrome still images based on fuzzy clustering and distance transformation. Given small amount of typical color scribbles manually marked on the input grayscale image, the followed colorization process consists of four main steps: color scribble extraction, distance transformation and spatial weight estimation, fuzzy clustering and luminance...
This paper presents a modified codebook model for real-time moving foreground detection. The proposed method is an effective combination of background modeling and motion detection. Without a long training sequence, the background model can be represented in a compressed form, a series of codebooks, which means sample background values for each pixel are quantized into codebooks that can used in detection...
