Horse Rugs Image segmentation is an essential initial stage in several computer vision applications.However, unsupervised image segmentation is still a challenging task in some cases such as when objects with a similar visual appearance overlap.Unlike 2D images, 4D Light Fields (LFs) convey both spatial and angular scene information facilitating de
With increasing industrialization, the industrial byproducts (wastes) are being accumulated to a large extent, leading to environmental and economic concerns related to their disposal (land filling).Wood ash is the residue produced from the incineration of wood and its products (chips, saw dust, bark) for power generation or other uses.Cement is an
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a disease characterized by proteinuria and subsequent hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia and edema due to the defective renal glomerular filtration barrier (GFB).Mutations of NPHS1, encoding NEPHRIN, a podocyte protein essential for normal GFB, cause congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) of the Finnish type (CNF), which accoun
