    • S-polarized light-sheets improve resolution and light-efficiency in oblique plane microscopy 

      Sommernes, Jon-Richard; Millett-Sikking, Alfred; Ströhl, Florian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-12)
      Oblique plane microscopy (OPM) offers 3D optically sectioned imaging with high spatial- and temporal-resolution while enabling conventional sample mounting. The technique uses a concatenation of three microscopes, two for remote focusing and a tilted tertiary microscope, often including an immersion objective, to image an oblique sample plane. This design induces Fresnel reflections and a reduced ...

      Zheng, Kaizhong; Yu, Shujian; Chen, Liangjun; Dang, Lujuan; Chen, Badong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-01)
      Converging evidence increasingly suggests that psychiatric disorders, such as major depressive disorder (MDD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), are not unitary diseases, but rather heterogeneous syndromes that involve diverse, co-occurring symptoms and divergent responses to treatment. This clinical heterogeneity has hindered the progress of precision diagnosis and treatment effectiveness in ...

      Banerjee, Pragyan; Milind Akarte, Shivam; Kumar, Prakhar; Shamsuzzaman, Muhammad; Butola, Ankit; Agarwal, Krishna; Prasad, Dilip Kumar; Melandsø, Frank; Habib, Anowarul (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-18)
      Acoustic microscopy is a cutting-edge label-free imaging technology that allows us to see the surface and interior structure of industrial and biological materials. The acoustic image is created by focusing high-frequency acoustic waves on the object and then detecting reflected signals. On the other hand, the quality of the acoustic image's resolution is influenced by the signal-to-noise ratio, the ...

      Rusin, Jozef; Lavergne, Thomas; Doulgeris, Anthony Paul; Scott, K. Andrea (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-30)
      Passive-microwave sea ice concentration (SIC) algorithms employ different frequencies and polarisations in their operational implementations. Commonly, these algorithms utilise combinations such as 19/37 GHz, yielding reduced measurement uncertainties but at a coarse spatial resolution. Alternatively, these algorithms can solely use 89 GHz, producing a higher spatial resolution but with increased ...

    • Abrupt increase in Greenland melt enhanced by atmospheric wave changes 

      Graversen, Rune Grand; Heiskanen, Tuomas Ilkka Henrikki; Bintanja, Richard; Goelzer, Heiko (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024-05-25)
      Recent Greenland ice-sheet melt constitutes a considerable contribution to global sea-level rise. Observations indicate an approximate zero mass balance of the ice sheet until the late 1990s, after which a strong increase in melting occurred. This cannot be attributed linearly to gradually-increasing global warming. Instead the abrupt shift has been linked to atmospheric circulation changes, although ...
    • Leveraging tensor kernels to reduce objective function mismatch in deep clustering 

      Trosten, Daniel Johansen; Løkse, Sigurd Eivindson; Jenssen, Robert; Kampffmeyer, Michael Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-29)
      Objective Function Mismatch (OFM) occurs when the optimization of one objective has a negative impact on the optimization of another objective. In this work we study OFM in deep clustering, and find that the popular autoencoder-based approach to deep clustering can lead to both reduced clustering performance, and a significant amount of OFM between the reconstruction and clustering objectives. To ...
