- The Visual Object Tracking Segmentation VOTS2023 challenge is the eleventh annual tracker benchmarking activity of the VOT initiative. This challenge is the first to merge short-term and long-term as well as single-target and multiple-target tracking with segmentation masks as the only target location specification. A new dataset was created; the ground truth has been withheld to prevent overfitting. New performance measures and evaluation protocols have been created along with a new toolkit and an evaluation server. Results of the presented 47 trackers indicate that modern tracking frameworks are well-suited to deal with convergence of short-term and long-term tracking and that multiple and single target tracking can be considered a single problem. A leaderboard, with participating trackers details, the source code, the datasets, and the evaluation kit are publicly available at the challenge website1

- The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2021 is the ninth annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by the VOT initiative. Results of 71 trackers are presented; many are state-of-the-art trackers published at major computer vision conferences or in journals in recent years. The VOT2021 challenge was composed of four sub-challenges focusing on different tracking domains: (i) VOT-ST2021 challenge focused on short-term tracking in RGB, (ii) VOT-RT2021 challenge focused on "real-time" short-term tracking in RGB, (iii) VOT-LT2021 focused on long-term tracking, namely coping with target disappearance and reappearance and (iv) VOT-RGBD2021 challenge focused on long-term tracking in RGB and depth imagery. The VOT-ST2021 dataset was refreshed, while VOT-RGBD2021 introduces a training dataset and sequestered dataset for winner identification. The source code for most of the trackers, the datasets, the evaluation kit and the results along with the source code for most trackers are publicly available at the challenge website(1).

- The brain, with its diverse physiology and intricate cellular organization, is the most complex organ of the mammalian body. To expand our basic understanding of the neurobiology of the brain and its diseases, we performed a comprehensive molecular dissection of 10 major brain regions and multiple subregions using a variety of transcriptomics methods and antibody-based mapping. This analysis was carried out in the human, pig, and mouse brain to allow the identification of regional expression profiles, as well as to study similarities and differences in expression levels between the three species. The resulting data have been made available in an open-access Brain Atlas resource, part of the Human Protein Atlas, to allow exploration and comparison of the expression of individual protein-coding genes in various parts of the mammalian brain.

- Emulsion wastewater contain substantial amounts of oil and various additives, which pose threats to the environment and human health. Demulsification is a crucial pretreatment stage for wastewater. This study aims to identify a novel electro-demulsification method with high oil removal efficiency and low energy consumption. Modified carbonized birch wood with a unique isotropic multiscale pore structure is used as a self-standing electrode to treat a toluene oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion. The electrode must have a highly porous structure to facilitate efficient water diffusion and oil adsorption. It must also have high electronic conductivity to expedite polarized molecular electrophoresis to realize penetration into the pores and, subsequently, demulsification. Guided by an applied electric field force, polarized O/W droplets are drawn toward the electrode, revealing electrical characteristics distinct from those of polarized organic molecules. This electric field force augments the capture and adhesion of droplets by the electric double layer at the electrode interface. Consequently, adsorbed droplets in close proximity to the electrode rupture due to the combined influence of the electric field force and the electrostatic effects stemming from the electrode's multiscale porous structure. This synergistic action enables demulsification to occur efficiently at low energy consumption levels. This study has revealed that electro-demulsification can effectively treat toluene emulsions stabilized by various surfactants and microemulsion containing toluene. Therefore, this electro-demulsification technology can be further developed for various types of water pollution.

Depression-like behavior in rat: Involvement of galanin receptor subtype 1 in the ventral periaqueductal gray

- The neuropeptide galanin coexists in rat brain with serotonin in the dorsal raphe nucleus and with noradrenaline in the locus coeruleus (LC), and it has been suggested to be involved in depression. We studied rats exposed to chronic mild stress (CMS), a rodent model of depression. As expected, these rats showed several endophenotypes relevant to depression-like behavior compared with controls. All these endophenotypes were normalized after administration of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. The transcripts for galanin and two of its receptors, galanin receptor 1 (GALR1) and GALR2, were analyzed with quantitative real-time PCR using laser capture microdissection in the following brain regions: the hippocampal formation, LC, and ventral periaqueductal gray (vPAG). Only Galr1 mRNA levels were significantly increased, and only in the latter region. After knocking down Galr1 in the vPAG with an siRNA technique, all parameters of the depressive behavioral phenotype were similar to controls. Thus, the depression-like behavior in rats exposed to CMS is likely related to an elevated expression of Galr1 in the vPAG, suggesting that a GALR1 antagonist could have antidepressant effects.

Investigation of the dynamic airtightness coefficient of high-speed trains traveling through a tunnel: A field study

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Determining the dynamic airtightness coefficient (τdyn) of train carriages using a high-accuracy and high-efficiency method is essential regarding the study of the dynamic airtightness performance of high-speed trains (HSTs) traveling through tunnels. This study set out to provide a systematic elaboration and investigation of the whole process of establishing the calculation methodology of τdyn of HST carriages. Moreover, the applicability of three different typical optimization algorithms in the calculation of τdyn was explored and compared. These were the traversal algorithm (TRAA), the trichotomy algorithm (TRIA), and the genetic algorithm (GA). Using the established calculation method, the values of τdyn of different HST carriages for tunnels with different lengths were calculated based on field test data of pressure outside and inside HST carriages. Results revealed that the selection of optimization algorithms had significant effects on the calculation process of τdyn because of their different optimization mechanisms. These three optimization algorithms were proven to be feasible for establishing the calculation method of τdyn and gave the same calculation result of τdyn for the calculation example within the expected accuracy. The elapsed time of the TRAA and GA were approximately 100 and 80 times that of the TRIA regarding the calculation example. The TRIA was the preferable choice for the calculation of τdyn among the three algorithms because of its uncomplicated implementation logic and high efficiency. Within the tunnel-length range involved, the tunnel length itself had no significant effect on τdyn of HST carriages. A significant increasing trend in τdyn of HST carriages was found along the train length. Compared to the head car, the increasing ratio of τdyn of the second car was varying from 0.2 to 0.5, while the increasing ratio of the seventh car was ranging from 0.8 to 1.7 considering different tunnel lengths. These findings provide a reference basis for the design of the calculation method of τdyn of HST carriages and also enhance understanding of τdyn of HST carriages under different operating circumstances.
