    Abstract The development of high-performance, low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles paired with rapid progress in vision-based perception systems herald a new era of autonomous flight systems with mission-ready capabilities. One of the key features of an autonomous UAV is a robust mid-air collision avoidance strategy. This paper proposes a vision-based in-flight collision avoidance system based on background subtraction using an embedded computing system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The pipeline of proposed in-flight collision avoidance system is as follows: (i) subtract dynamic background subtraction to remove it and to detect moving objects, (ii) denoise using morphology and binarization methods, (iii) cluster the moving objects and remove noise blobs, using Euclidean clustering, (iv) distinguish independent objects and track the movement using the Kalman filter, and (v) avoid collision, using the proposed decision-making techniques. This work focuses on the design and the demonstration of a vision-based fast-moving object detection and tracking system with decision-making capabilities to perform evasive maneuvers to replace a high-vision system such as event camera. The novelty of our method lies in the motion-compensating moving object detection framework, which accomplishes the task with background subtraction via a two-dimensional transformation approximation. Clustering and tracking algorithms process detection data to track independent objects, and stereo-camera-based distance estimation is conducted to estimate the three-dimensional trajectory, which is then used during decision-making procedures. The examination of the system is conducted with a test quadrotor UAV, and appropriate algorithm parameters for various requirements are deduced.

    Abstract Introduction: The purpose of this study was to identify possible associations between classification, treatment, and 1-year outcome of external cervical resorption (ECR) lesions using the Heithersay and Patel systems. Performance of the Patel 3-dimensional classification system was also evaluated.
    Methods: A chart review identified 142 cases of ECR over a 12-year period. Information regarding demographics, predisposing factors, lesion classification, treatment, and outcomes were collected and analyzed. Inter- and intraobserver reliability analyses were conducted for both classification systems.
    Results: There were 72 cases with at least 1 year of follow up; 70% of these cases survived. Treatment recommendations were correlated with both Heithersay and Patel classification. There were no correlations found between 1-year outcome and either classification or treatment done. The weighted reliability analysis showed substantial agreement in both classification systems for both inter- and intraobserver agreement. There was a significant association between the 2 systems; however, the Heithersay system tended to underestimate the apical extent of the lesion.
    Conclusions: Periodic review of ECR lesions presents as a viable treatment option, at least for 1 year after diagnosis. The Patel 3-dimensional classification system is at least as effective as the Heithersay system and should be used in future ECR prognosis studies. Further long-term outcome assessments are still needed.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has incited widespread anti-Asian racism, which is linked to numerous behavioral health consequences including depressive symptoms. As racism-induced depressive symptoms are linked to coping-related alcohol use and because alcohol-related problems represent a significant public health concern in this population, we investigated whether COVID-19 racism predicted alcohol use severity through depressive symptoms and drinking to cope motives among Asian American emerging adults (

    Abstract The sea cucumber evolved to bear mutable collagenous tissue (MCT) that enables its elastic modulus to change by a factor of 10 within a few seconds. It does this by controlling the amount of chemical regulator released, which can subsequently form or break hydrogen bonds within the MCT. Although existing water-driven, self-operating, soft actuators have great potential for soft robotics, they remain fragile and slow; ergo, their range of application remains modest. Inspired by MCT, we introduce a programmable, powerful, and ultra-fast water-driven self-operating soft actuator exerting an actuation force of approximately 2 N with an actuation speed of approximately 3 s⁻¹ in 80 °C water based on the dramatic stiffness alteration of bulk poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel. This actuator also exhibits outstanding robustness by preserving its original shape over multiple cycles of highly strained (300%) actuations under harsh environments. A simple modulation of cross-linker concentration with its dimensional adjustment enabled the precise tuning of not only the actuation force but also the actuation speed in a wide range. Thus, the soft robotic gripper was able to perform a myriad of intricate tasks such as capturing a fragile object, acting as a biomedical appliance, and closing a large wound with uniform appropriate forces.
