Improving text-to-image generation with object layout guidance by Jezia Zakraoui (14151399)

“…To evaluate the performance of our approach, we use the COCO dataset and compare it with three baseline approaches, namely, sg2im, StackGAN and AttnGAN, in terms of image quality and user evaluation. According to the obtained assessment results, our object layout guidance-based approach significantly outperforms the abovementioned baseline approaches in terms of the accuracy of semantic matching and realism of the generated images representing the story text sentences.…”

Translation of atherosclerotic disease features onto healthy carotid ultrasound images using domain-to-domain translation by Hazrat Ali (421019)

“…<h3>Objective </h3><p dir="ltr">In this work, we evaluated a model for the translation of atherosclerotic disease features onto healthy carotid ultrasound images. </p><h3>Methods </h3><p dir="ltr">An un-paired domain-to-domain translation model – the cycle Generative Adversarial Network (cycleGAN) – was trained to translate between carotid ultrasound images of healthy arteries and images of pronounced disease. …”

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…However, questions related to its mechanism of interaction with the substrate, furimazine, as well as bioluminescence activity remain elusive. Here, we combined molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and mutational analysis to show that the R162A mutation results in a decreased but stable <u>bioluminescence </u>activity of NLuc in living cells and in vitro. …”

Performance evaluation of 3D-printed PLA composites doped with WE43 magnesium alloy for bone tissue engineering applications by Sumama Nuthana Kalva (17302906)

“…While a low Mg content (5 %) only slightly impacted the print quality and dimensions, higher Mg concentrations (10 % and 15 %) led to increased weight, rougher surfaces, dimensional shrinkage in height, and overall poorer formation quality. Adding WE43 alloy to PLA decreased the average pore sizes of the composites. …”

Notch Signaling Inhibition by LY411575 Attenuates Osteoblast Differentiation and Decreased Ectopic Bone Formation Capacity of Human Skeletal (Mesenchymal) Stem Cells by Nihal AlMuraikhi (6002234)

“…Among the tested molecules, LY411575, a potent γ-secretase and Notch signaling inhibitor, exhibited significant inhibitory effects on osteoblastic differentiation of hBMSCs manifested by reduced ALP activity, mineralized matrix formation, and decreased osteoblast-specific gene expression as well as in vivo ectopic bone formation. …”

Implementation of Deep Learning for Measurement of Penile Curvature on Real 2D Intraoperative Images by Sriman Bidhan Baray (15302398)

“…A YOLOv8 model was trained to localize and crop the penile region, then a deep-learning model was employed to segment the shafts and generate binary mask images. In the final stage, a modified HRNet model was used to integrate angle error, predict four key points denoting mid-axes of the proximal and distal shaft, and then use these landmarks to calculate curvature automatically. …”

Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations are inversely associated with body adiposity measurements but the association with bone mass is non-linear in postmenopausal women by Vijay, Ganji

“…In a continuous variable analysis, the association between 25(OH)D and bone mass was significant, non-linear, inverse ‘U’. In conclusion, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was inversely associated with adiposity measures and non-linearly associated to bone mass in postmenopausal Qatari women.…”
