A perceptual model for reducing Moiré patterns in autostereoscopic displays
Abstract Autostereoscopic displays have transformative potential in entertainment, education, and emerging fields such as humanoid robotics. However, moiré artifacts caused by interference between display pixels and optical elements severely reduce image quality and limit this ap...

Political context and system conditions for university community engagement
The paper explores whether the political context and institutional settings of the higher education system are elements that could affect the community engagement of universities and how much it is likely to be transformative for academia. The questions guiding the research are:...

Surgical treatment of anal fistula: classic elastic seton application and LIFT method
Anal fistulas remain a challenging problem in colorectal surgery, and the optimal sphincter-preserving technique is still debated. We compared the LIFT procedure and elastic seton application in terms of treatment outcomes, postoperative pain, anal continence, and quality of life...

Investigating a Devonian vertebrate assemblage with synchrotron microtomography of coprolites
Abstract Fossilised faeces (coprolites) are a unique source of information as they record palaeontological evidence of animal behaviour (autecology) as well as interactions between extinct organisms and their environment (synecology). Four samples bearing coprolites found in a ne...
