Modern background subtraction techniques can handle gradual illumination changes but can easily be confused by rapid ones. We propose a technique that overcomes this limitation by relying on a statistical model, not of the pixel intensities, but of the ill ...

The paper presents Kernel Ridge Regression, a nonlinear extension of the well known statistical model of ridge regression. New insights on the method are also presented. In particular, the connection between ridge regression and local translation-invariant ...
This paper introduces a new approach to orthonormal wavelet image denoising. Instead of postulating a statistical model for the wavelet coefficients, we directly parametrize the denoising process as a sum of elementary nonlinear processes with unknown weig ...

Ciliary neurotrophic factor prevents behavioural deficits and striatal degeneration in rat and primate models of Huntington's disease. Interleukin- 6, another member of the cytokine family, and the chimeric molecule (IL6/IL6R) in which interleukin-6 and it ...
OBJECTIVE: To compare a novel resorbable hydrogel barrier with two previously studied barriers, oxidized regenerated cellulose and hyaluronic acid, for the prevention of postoperative adhesions. STUDY DESIGN: Two models were employed in the rat uterine hor ...
Methylobacterium dichloromethanicum DM4 is able to grow with dichloromethane as the sole carbon and energy source by using a dichloromethane dehalogenase/glutathione S-transferase (GST) for the conversion of dichloromethane to formaldehyde. Mammalian homol ...
A new real-time ergometric system, ERGORAT, for measuring the energy expenditure due to muscular activity of small mammals is described. The method is based on measuring the vibrations induced by a freely moving rat to a platform on which it is living. Six ...
Although chronic stress has been reported to induce deleterious effects on hippocampal structure and function, the possible existence of individual differences in the vulnerability to develop stress-induced cognitive alterations was hypothesized. This stud ...
We examined the activation of memory-related processes in the hippocampus and the amygdala following spatial learning under stress, in the rat. Animals were trained in a water maze in a massed spatial task under two stress conditions (cold and warm water). ...
In humans, sex steroids have been implicated in the regulation of hepatic and lipoprotein lipase activity. Therefore, the effects of orchidectomy and subsequent androgen or estrogen administration on hepatic lipase (HL) and adipose tissue and heart lipopro ...
