Existing road extraction methods based on deep learning often struggle with distinguishing ground objects that share similar spectral information, such as roads and buildings.Consequently, this study proposes a dual encoder-decoder deep neural network to address road extraction in complex backgrounds.In the feature extraction stage, the first encod
Abstract Background In the fall, Eastern North American monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) undergo a magnificent long-range migration.In contrast to spring and summer butterflies, fall migrants are juvenile hormone deficient, which leads to reproductive arrest and increased longevity.Migrants also use a time-compensated sun compass to help them
After an injury to the central nervous system (CNS), functional recovery is limited by the inability of severed axons to regenerate and form functional connections with appropriate target neurons beyond the injury.Despite tremendous advances in our understanding of the mechanisms of axon growth, and of the inhibitory factors in the injured CNS that
Introduction: The primary second molar relation is also called the terminal plane, which is the relation between the distal surface of the maxillary and mandibular second primary molars in a centric occlusion position.One of the most important characteristics of the ideal occlusion development on the primary dentition is if the primary second molar
