While the established paradigm of human evolution asserts that the lineages leading to the extant great apes and Homo arose in Africa, the large number of fossil discoveries from Europe in recent decades support arguments for a European origin of the Hominidae (all great apes) and plausibly, also a European common ancestor of the Homininae (African

In order to decrease the communication bandwidth and save the transmitting power in the wireless endoscopy capsule, this paper presents GLASS a new near-lossless image compression algorithm based on the Bayer format image suitable for hardware design.This algorithm can provide low average compression rate ( bits/pixel) with high image quality (larg

The process of creating high-quality labeled data is crucial for training machine-learning models, but it can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive process.Moreover, manual annotation by human annotators can lead to varying degrees of competency, training, and experience, which can result in inconsistent labeling and arbitrary standards.To addres

Neurophysiological data acquisition using multi-electrode arrays and/or (semi-) chronic recordings frequently has to deal with low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of neuronal responses and potential failure of detecting evoked responses within random background fluctuations.Conventional methods to extract action potentials (spikes) from background nois
