Clustering thermograms of Schubert autographs based on chain and laid line features

Abstract We propose a novel approach towards the automated clustering of handmade paper. Specifically, we acquired a large dataset of thermographic images and developed a feature extraction and automated clustering method to identify leaves of paper made with the same mold. Our m...

VIA1 is a conserved regulator of thylakoid membrane integrity that acts through VIPP1

Abstract Thylakoid membranes are indispensable for oxygenic photosynthesis, yet the mechanisms that protect these membranes from photooxidative damage remain poorly understood. By screening previously uncharacterized proteins induced during the chloroplast unfolded protein respon...

Widespread thermophilization but weak link to climate warming in Europe’s summit plant communities

Abstract Recent changes in alpine vegetation are often attributed to climate warming, particularly community composition shifts towards more warmth-associated species, or thermophilization. Here we assess the link between thermophilization and warming across 53 European mountain...

Histological aging signatures for monitoring tissue-specific aging and disease

Aging is the primary risk factor for chronic disease and is characterized by profound structural and architectural remodeling of human tissues. Here, we present a comprehensive assessment of these changes using 25,712 whole-slide histopathological images from 40 tissue types acro...

Review of Particle Physics *

The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 3,200 new measurements from 903 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and b...
