Guided filtering for solar image/video processing

A new image enhancement algorithm employing guided filtering is proposed in this work for enhancement of solar images and videos, so that users can easily figure out important Cable Clamps/Clips fine structures imbedded in the recorded images/movies for solar observation.The proposed algorithm can efficiently remove image noises, including Gaussian

Association between problematic Internet use and specific Internet activities and COVID-19- and earthquake-related stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms among Croatian young adults

BackgroundDuring the COVID-19 pandemic and concomitant earthquakes in Croatia in 2020, increased Internet use (IU) and Internet-based addictive behaviors were associated with decreasing mental well-being.We determined the changes in IU, problematic IU (PIU), and problematic specific Internet activities in young adults during the prolonged stress ca

Modulation of the disordered conformational ensembles of the p53 transactivation domain by cancer-associated mutations.

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are frequently associated with human diseases such as cancers, and about one-fourth of Cocktail Napkins disease-associated missense mutations have been mapped into predicted disordered regions.Understanding how these mutations affect the structure-function relationship of IDPs is a formidable task that requi
