In vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI) has played a more and important role in biomedical research of small animals. Bioluminescence tomography (BLT) further translates the BLI optical information into three-dimensional bioluminescent source distribution, which could greatly facilitate applications related studies. Although diffusion approximation (DA) is one most widely-used forward models, higher-order approximations are still needed for animal imaging. this work, as relatively accurate...

This study proposes a precise and rapid binocular camera calibration (BCC) method based on stereo target composed of 12 coded planar targets which each corner has unique number. Unlike Zhang's requires numerous pairs images in process fails to realize the matching homonymous corners case incomplete projection, proposed can implement an accurate BCC using single image per even incompete projection. The greatly decreases complexity process. An optimization multi-constraint is also presented...

Summary Compared with lowlander migrants, native Tibetans have a higher reproductive success at high altitude though the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we compared transcriptome and histology of full-term placentas between Han migrants. We found that placental trophoblast shows largest expression divergence Han, show decreased immune response endoplasmic reticulum stress. Remarkably, detected sex-biased divergence, where male-infant greater between-population difference than...
