Abstract The tuatara ( Sphenodon punctatus )—the only living member of the reptilian order Rhynchocephalia (Sphenodontia), once widespread across Gondwana 1,2 —is an iconic species that is endemic to New Zealand 2,3 . A key link now-extinct stem reptiles (from which dinosaurs, modern reptiles, birds and mammals evolved), provides insights into ancestral amniotes 2,4 Here we analyse genome tuatara, which—at approximately 5 Gb—is among largest vertebrate genomes yet assembled. Our analyses...
Abstract Animal mitochondrial genomic polymorphism occurs as low-level heteroplasmy and deeply divergent co-existing molecules. The latter is rare, known only in bivalvian mollusks. Here we show two mt-genomes a vertebrate through sequencing of the Tuatara ( Sphenodon punctatus ), sole-representative an ancient reptilian Order. molecules, revealed using combination short-read long-read technologies, differ by 10.4% nucleotide divergence. A single covers entire mt-molecule for both strands....
A user often needs training and guidance while performing several daily life procedures, e.g., cooking, setting up a new appliance, or doing COVID test. Watch-based human activity recognition (HAR) can track users' actions during these procedures. However, out of the box, state-of-the-art HAR struggles from noisy data less-expressive that are part tasks. This paper proposes PrISM-Tracker, procedure-tracking framework augments existing models with (1) graph-based procedure representation (2)...
Dematological skill training is essential for medical students to perform successful skin tumor surgery. However, there no exisitng system that can provide high-quality tactile simulation and as the substitute of clinical with patients. In this study, we developed immersive haptic combined virtual reality simulating two important dermatological skills, outlining incision, investigated effectiveness be used a tool at clinic or school. evaluation professional (dermatologists, residents,...
The tuatara ( Sphenodon punctatus ), the only living member of archaic reptilian order Rhynchocephalia (Sphenodontia) once widespread across Gondwana, is an iconic and enigmatic terrestrial vertebrate endemic to New Zealand. A key link now extinct stem reptiles from which dinosaurs, modern reptiles, birds mammals evolved, provides exclusive insights into ancestral amniotes. genome, at ∼5 Gbp, among largest genomes assembled. Analysis this genome comparisons other vertebrates reinforces...
We present the Virtual Reality Haptic Surgery Platform (VRHSP), a multimodal haptic virtual reality training simulator for elliptical skin excisions (i.e., tumor surgeries). Using device and head mounted display, participants interact with actual images mapped to 3D simulated surgical suite. In this study, primary aim is build VRHSP an initial narrow focus of simulating outlining incision steps surgeries realistic tactile visual feedback collocated in clinical scene. The secondary...
