FrankenGAN Powerpoint presentation
No full textPowerpoint presentation from Siggraph Asia (Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques in Asia) 2018, including 3D models and animation.
Coarse building mass models are now routinely generated at scales ranging from individual buildings through to whole cities. For example, they can be abstracted from raw measurements, generated procedurally, or created manually. However, these models typically lack any meaningful semantic or texture details, making them unsuitable for direct display. We introduce the problem of automatically and realistically decorating such models by adding semantically consistent geometric details and textures. Building on the recent success of generative adversarial networks (GANs), we propose FrankenGAN, a cascade of GANs to create plausible details across multiple scales over large neighborhoods. The various GANs are synchronized to produce consistent style distributions over buildings and neighborhoods. We provide the user with direct control over the variability of the output. We allow her to interactively specify style via images and manipulate style-adapted sliders to control style variability. We demonstrate our system on several large-scale examples. The generated outputs are qualitatively evaluated via a set of user studies and are found to be realistic, semantically-plausible, and style-consistent

Motion analysis in total hip replacement patients
Get PDFThis dataset contains a sample set of data from the kinematic and kinetic motion capture data collected on 137 post-operative total hip replacement patients. The data has been stratified into age groups and function groups in order to understand whether function in THR patients is dependent on patient or biomechanical characteristics. This study was supported by the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement no. GA-310477 LifeLongJoints. The complete set of this data can be found at the following location https://doi.org/10.5518/170

Dataset associated with “Effects of poling and crystallinity on the dielectric properties of Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)-Pb(Mn1/3Nb2/3)-PbTiO3 at cryogenic temperatures”
No full textWe provide dielectric data (real permittivity, imaginary permittivity, relative permittivity, loss tangent) as a function of temperature and frequency for the relaxor-ferroelectric Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 with nominal composition 28%(PIN)-40%(PMN)-32%(PT). The data are for three samples: an (001) cut single crystal, a (111) cut single crystal, a polycrystalline ceramic. Permittivity data were measured for both a poled and depoled state for each sample, at cryogenic temperatures down to 20 K and above room temperature up to 800 K. Low temperature dielectric relaxation peak positions for the poled (001) crystal have been extracted and fitted to a Vogel-Fulcher function. The dielectric data are accompanied by room temperature characterisation of the piezoelectric charge coefficients
Lipid coated liquid crystal droplets for the on-chip detection of Antimicrobial peptides - dataset
Get PDFWe describe a novel biosensor based on phospholipid-coated nematic liquid crystal (LC) droplets and demonstrate the detection of Smp43, a model antimicrobial peptide (AMP) from the venom of North African scorpion Scorpio maurus palmatus. Mono-disperse lipid-coated LC droplets of diameter 16.7 ± 0.2 μm were generated using PDMS microfluidic devices with a flow-focusing configuration and were the target for AMPs. The droplets were trapped in a bespoke microfluidic trap structure and were simultaneously treated with Smp43 at gradient concentrations in six different chambers. The disruption of the lipid monolayer by the Smp43 was detected (< 6 μM) at concentrations well within its biologically active range, indicated by a dramatic change in the appearance of the droplets associated with the transition from a typical radial configuration to a bipolar configuration, which is readily observed by polarizing microscopy. This suggests the system has feasibility as a drug-discovery screening tool. Further, compared to previously reported LC droplet biosensors, this LC droplet biosensor with a lipid coating is more biologically relevant and its ease of use in detecting membrane-related biological processes and interactions has the potential for development as a reliable, low-cost and disposable point of care diagnostic tool
Data for Embossing Reactive Mesogens: A Facile Approach to Polarisation-Independent Liquid Crystal Devices
No full textReactive mesogens (RMs) have found their way into different branches of science and application. They can be processed as standard liquid crystals and can then be polymerised to stabilise their shape and anisotropic properties. Their birefringence is used in optical compensation films while the complex director field is exploited for actuators. However, creating complex shapes while maintaining good alignment is a challenge in these applications. In the present work, the embossing of reactive mesogens is introduced. Embossing is a fast and large-scale method, which allows to form a large variety of structured reactive mesogen devices. To create a polarisation-independent lens, two birefringent Fresnel zone plates (FZPs) are embossed. A lens is formed by assembling the FZPs in a twisted nematic cell and filling the cell with a nematic crystal index matched to the RM. The device can be switched from a non-focusing to a focusing state by applying a small voltage. After characterising the efficiency and beam properties, the method is used to fabricate a switchable multi-level Fresnel zone plate with optical efficiencies beyond 50%. Finally, manufactured polarisation-independent gratings and microlens arrays are presented using the method to illustrate the wide range of applicability

JULES DGVM modified SURFACE subroutines only, incorporating Sphagnum PFT function
No full textThis is the modified program-code within the JULES DGVM for a new Sphagnum PFT. In order to achieve a level of process detail consistent with existing vascular vegetation PFTs within DGVMs, this is a new process-based non-vascular-PFT model that is implemented within the TRIFFID DGVM used by the JULES land surface model
