文摘This paper presents a novel method for reconstructing a highly accurate 3D nose model of the human from 2D images and pre-marked landmarks based on algorithmic methods.The study focuses on the reconstruction of a 3D nose model tailored for applications in healthcare and cosmetic surgery.The approach leverages advanced image processing techniques,3D Morphable Models(3DMM),and deformation techniques to overcome the limita-tions of deep learning models,particularly addressing the interpretability issues commonly encountered in medical applications.The proposed method estimates the 3D coordinates of landmark points using a 3D structure estimation algorithm.Sub-landmarks are extracted through image processing techniques and interpolation.The initial surface is generated using a 3DMM,though its accuracy remains limited.To enhance precision,deformation techniques are applied,utilizing the coordinates of 76 identified landmarks and sub-landmarks.The resulting 3D nose model is constructed based on algorithmic methods and pre-marked landmarks.Evaluation of the 3D model is conducted by comparing landmark distances and shape similarity with expert-determined ground truth on 30 Vietnamese volunteers aged 18 to 47,all of whom were either preparing for or required nasal surgery.Experimental results demonstrate a strong agreement between the reconstructed 3D model and the ground truth.The method achieved a mean landmark distance error of 0.631 mm and a shape error of 1.738 mm,demonstrating its potential for medical applications.

文摘This study aims to develop a high-precision and cost-efficient method for the threedimensional reconstruction of large particles in natural gravel and blasted rock fragments,utilizing Structure from Motion(SfM)and Multi-View Stereo(MVS)techniques.The proposed approach was applied to characterize the three-dimensional morphology of rockfill dam materials at a real construction site.Particle shape was quantitatively analyzed using shape indices of sphericity,convexity,and angularity.The predominant morphology of natural gravel is characterized as slightly elongated and slightly flat,while rock fragments are slightly elongated and not flat.Probability density distributions of shape indices follow a skewed normal distribution:sphericity and convexity show leftward skewness,whereas angularity is right-skewed.Skewness parameters of sphericity and angularity are consistent between natural gravel and blasted rock fragments,indicating comparable shape asymmetry.Convexity skewness is significantly higher in natural gravel compared to rock fragments,by approximately an order of magnitude.The relationship between size and particle shape shows that form ratios and associated shape descriptors change linearly with the logarithm of size;larger particles approach spherical or cubic forms.The innovative measurements contribute to the particle shape data set of rockfill dam materials,providing valuable insights into the three-dimensional and statistical morphological characteristics of relatively large particles in natural gravel and blasted rock fragments.This approach enhances understanding of particle morphology's impact on the mechanical behavior of granular materials.

文摘Optical three-dimensional(3D)measurement is a critical tool in micro-nano manufacturing,the automotive industry,and medical technology due to its nondestructive nature,high precision,and sensitivity.However,passive light field system still requires a refractive primary lens to collect light of the scene,and structured light can not work well with the highly refractive object.Meta-optics,known for being lightweight,compact,and easily integrable,has enabled advancements in passive metalens-array light fields and active structured light techniques.Here,we propose and experimentally validate a novel 3D measurement metasystem.It features a transmitting metasurface generating chromatic line focuses as depth markers and a symmetrically arranged receiving metasurface collecting depth-dependent spectral responses.A lightweight,physically interpretable algorithm processes these data to yield high-precision depth information efficiently.Experiments on metallic and wafer materials demonstrate a depth accuracy of±20μm and lateral accuracy of±10μm.This single-layer optical metasystem,characterized by simplicity,micro-level accuracy,easy installation and scalability,shows potential for diverse applications,including process control,surface morphology analysis,and production measurement.

文摘Efficient three-dimensional(3D)building reconstruction from drone imagery often faces data acquisition,storage,and computational challenges because of its reliance on dense point clouds.In this study,we introduced a novel method for efficient and lightweight 3D building reconstruction from drone imagery using line clouds and sparse point clouds.Our approach eliminates the need to generate dense point clouds,and thus significantly reduces the computational burden by reconstructing 3D models directly from sparse data.We addressed the limitations of line clouds for plane detection and reconstruction by using a new algorithm.This algorithm projects 3D line clouds onto a 2D plane,clusters the projections to identify potential planes,and refines them using sparse point clouds to ensure an accurate and efficient model reconstruction.Extensive qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of our method,demonstrating its superiority over existing techniques in terms of simplicity and efficiency.
文摘BACKGROUND Gastric cancer(GC)remains a significant global health challenge,with high incidence and mortality rates.Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is increasingly used to improve surgical outcomes and long-term survival in advanced cases.However,individual responses to treatment vary widely,and current imaging methods often fall short in accurately predicting efficacy.Advanced imaging techniques,such as computed tomography(CT)3D reconstruction and texture analysis,offer potential for more precise assessment of therapeutic response.AIM To explore the application value of CT 3D reconstruction volume change rate,texture feature analysis,and visual features in assessing the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced GC.METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and imaging data of 97 patients with advanced GC who received S-1 plus Oxaliplatin combined chemotherapy regimen neoadjuvant chemotherapy from January 2022 to March 2024.CT texture feature analysis was performed using MaZda software,and ITK-snap software was used to measure the tumor volume change rate before and after chemotherapy.CT visual features were also evaluated.Using postoperative pathological tumor regression grade(TRG)as the gold standard,the correlation between various indicators and chemotherapy efficacy was analyzed,and a predictive model was constructed and internally validated.RESULTS The minimum misclassification rate of texture features in venous phase CT images(7.85%)was lower than in the arterial phase(13.92%).The volume change rate in the effective chemotherapy group(75.20%)was significantly higher than in the ineffective group(41.75%).There was a strong correlation between volume change rate and TRG grade(r=-0.886,P<0.001).Multivariate analysis showed that gastric wall peristalsis(OR=0.286)and thickness change rate≥40%(OR=0.265)were independent predictive factors.Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the volume change rate[area under the curve(AUC)=0.885]was superior to the CT visual feature model(AUC=0.795).When the cutoff value was 82.56%,the sensitivity and specificity were 85.62%and 96.45%,respectively.CONCLUSION The CT 3D reconstruction volume change rate can serve as a preferred quantitative indicator for evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in GC.Combining it with a CT visual feature predictive model can further improve the accuracy of efficacy evaluation.

文摘Photomechanics is a crucial branch of solid mechanics.The localization of point targets constitutes a fundamental problem in optical experimental mechanics,with extensive applications in various missions of unmanned aerial vehicles.Localizing moving targets is crucial for analyzing their motion characteristics and dynamic properties.Reconstructing the trajectories of points from asynchronous cameras is a significant challenge.It encompasses two coupled sub-problems:Trajectory reconstruction and camera synchronization.Present methods typically address only one of these sub-problems individually.This paper proposes a 3D trajectory reconstruction method for point targets based on asynchronous cameras,simultaneously solving both sub-problems.Firstly,we extend the trajectory intersection method to asynchronous cameras to resolve the limitation of traditional triangulation that requires camera synchronization.Secondly,we develop models for camera temporal information and target motion,based on imaging mechanisms and target dynamics characteristics.The parameters are optimized simultaneously to achieve trajectory reconstruction without accurate time parameters.Thirdly,we optimize the camera rotations alongside the camera time information and target motion parameters,using tighter and more continuous constraints on moving points.The reconstruction accuracy is significantly improved,especially when the camera rotations are inaccurate.Finally,the simulated and real-world experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method.The real-world results indicate that the proposed algorithm achieved a localization error of 112.95 m at an observation distance range of 15-20 km.

文摘We present a grid-growth method to reconstruct 3D rock joints with arbitrary joint roughness and persistence.In the first step of this workflow,the joint model is divided into uniform grids.Then by adjusting the positions of the grids,the joint morphology can be modified to construct models with desired joint roughness and persistence.Accordingly,numerous joint models with different joint roughness and persistence were built.The effects of relevant parameters(such as the number,height,slope of asperities,and the number,area of rock bridges)on the joint roughness coefficient(JRC)and joint persistence were investigated.Finally,an artificially split joint was reconstructed using the method,and the method's accuracy was evaluated by comparing the JRC of the models with that of the artificially split joint.The results showed that the proposed method can effectively control the JRC of joint models by adjusting the number,height,and slope of asperities.The method can also modify the joint persistence of joint models by adjusting the number and area of rock bridges.Additionally,the JRC of models obtained by our method agrees with that of the artificially split surface.Overall,the method demonstrated high accuracy for 3D rock joint reconstruction.

文摘Neural organoids and confocal microscopy have the potential to play an important role in microconnectome research to understand neural patterns.We present PLayer,a plug-and-play embedded neural system,which demonstrates the utilization of sparse confocal microscopy layers to interpolate continuous axial resolution.With an embedded system focused on neural network pruning,image scaling,and post-processing,PLayer achieves high-performance metrics with an average structural similarity index of 0.9217 and a peak signal-to-noise ratio of 27.75 dB,all within 20 s.This represents a significant time saving of 85.71%with simplified image processing.By harnessing statistical map estimation in interpolation and incorporating the Vision Transformer–based Restorer,PLayer ensures 2D layer consistency while mitigating heavy computational dependence.As such,PLayer can reconstruct 3D neural organoid confocal data continuously under limited computational power for the wide acceptance of fundamental connectomics and pattern-related research with embedded devices.

文摘3D medical image reconstruction has significantly enhanced diagnostic accuracy,yet the reliance on densely sampled projection data remains a major limitation in clinical practice.Sparse-angle X-ray imaging,though safer and faster,poses challenges for accurate volumetric reconstruction due to limited spatial information.This study proposes a 3D reconstruction neural network based on adaptive weight fusion(AdapFusionNet)to achieve high-quality 3D medical image reconstruction from sparse-angle X-ray images.To address the issue of spatial inconsistency in multi-angle image reconstruction,an innovative adaptive fusion module was designed to score initial reconstruction results during the inference stage and perform weighted fusion,thereby improving the final reconstruction quality.The reconstruction network is built on an autoencoder(AE)framework and uses orthogonal-angle X-ray images(frontal and lateral projections)as inputs.The encoder extracts 2D features,which the decoder maps into 3D space.This study utilizes a lung CT dataset to obtain complete three-dimensional volumetric data,from which digitally reconstructed radiographs(DRR)are generated at various angles to simulate X-ray images.Since real-world clinical X-ray images rarely come with perfectly corresponding 3D“ground truth,”using CT scans as the three-dimensional reference effectively supports the training and evaluation of deep networks for sparse-angle X-ray 3D reconstruction.Experiments conducted on the LIDC-IDRI dataset with simulated X-ray images(DRR images)as training data demonstrate the superior performance of AdapFusionNet compared to other fusion methods.Quantitative results show that AdapFusionNet achieves SSIM,PSNR,and MAE values of 0.332,13.404,and 0.163,respectively,outperforming other methods(SingleViewNet:0.289,12.363,0.182;AvgFusionNet:0.306,13.384,0.159).Qualitative analysis further confirms that AdapFusionNet significantly enhances the reconstruction of lung and chest contours while effectively reducing noise during the reconstruction process.The findings demonstrate that AdapFusionNet offers significant advantages in 3D reconstruction of sparse-angle X-ray images.

文摘The alkali adatoms with controlled coverage on the surface have been demonstrated to effectively tune the surface band of quantum materials through in situ electron doping.However,the interplay of orderly arranged alkali adatoms with the surface states of quantum materials remains unexplored.Here,by using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy(STM/S),we observed the emergent 3×3 super modulation of electronic states on the√3×√3R30°(R3)Cs ordered surface of kagome superconductor CsV_(3)Sb_(5).The nondispersive 3×3 superlattice at R3 ordered surface shows contrast inversion in positive and negative differential conductance maps,indicating a charge order origin.The 3×3 charge order is suppressed with increasing temperature and undetectable at a critical temperature of~62 K.Furthermore,in the Ta substituted sample CsV_(2.6)Ta_(0.4)Sb_(5),where long-range 2×2×2 charge density wave is significantly suppressed,the 3×3 charge order on the R3 ordered surface becomes blurred and much weaker than that in the undoped sample.It indicates that the 3×3 charge order on the R3 ordered surface is directly correlated to the bulk charge density waves in CsV_(3)Sb_(5).Our work provides a new platform for understanding and manipulating the cascade of charge orders in kagome superconductors.
