Abstract Drones have become steadily affordable, which raises privacy and security concerns as well as interest in drone detection systems. On the other hand, drone detection is a challenging task due to small dimensions of drones, difficulty of long-distance detection, strict real-time constraints and necessity of wide angle coverage for drones. Although different radar and audio-assisted drone detection systems have been presented, they suffer from the cost, range, or interference...
Abstract 3D-high efficiency video coding (3D-HEVC) contains more encoding viewpoints than traditional HEVC, resulting in a significant increase of coding complexity. In this paper, we propose a low complexity intra mode decision algorithm to reduce the number of intra modes by detecting the flat area and texture direction of the depth map. The corresponding intra prediction modes are skipped when the flat region condition is satisfied. Otherwise, the direction of the edge is detected...

Abstract Curcumin is a biologically active compound of vegetable origin which has a hormetic effect. Pro-health and anti-aging properties of curcumin have been known for years. The main benefit of curcumin is thought to be its anti-oxidative action.

Abstract Age-related deterioration of physiological functions is one of the most evident manifestations of ageing.

To clarify how age affects the responsiveness...
