Modality-Constrained Density Estimation via Deformable Templates (2021)
Journal Article
Estimation of a probability density function (pdf) from its samples, while satisfying certain shape constraints, is an important problem that lacks coverage in the literature. This article introduces a novel geometric, deformable template constrained... Read More about Modality-Constrained Density Estimation via Deformable Templates.
Early stage dental caries detection using near infrared spatial frequency domain imaging (2021)
Journal Article
Early stage dental caries can be remineralized without the need for “drill-and-fill” treatments that are more invasive and less permanent. However, early stage caries lesions typically present as a white spot on a white background, resulting in many...

Informal mhealth at scale in Africa: Opportunities and challenges (2021)
Journal Article
The extraordinary global growth of digital connectivity has generated optimism that mobile technologies can help overcome infrastructural barriers to development, with ‘mobile health’ (mhealth) being a key component of this. However, while ‘formal’ (... Read More about Informal mhealth at scale in Africa: Opportunities and challenges.
Memorials of Queen Elizabeth I in early Stuart London (2021)

Sex/gender differences in brain activity - It's time for a biopsychosocial approach to cognitive neuroscience (2020)
Journal Article
There is compelling evidence that men and women differ in brain activity in long-term memory and other cognitive functions. However, until the origins of sex/gender differences in brain activity, and consequently behavior, are not fully understood, t...

Being shown samples of composted, granulated faecal sludge strongly influences acceptability of its use in peri-urban subsistence agriculture (2020)
Journal Article
Using human excreta derived fertiliser (HEDF) in agriculture reduces dependence on diminishing phosphorus rock reserves, improves soil health, and facilitates sustainable nutrient recycling. Such schemes have particular scope for expansion in peri-ur...

Dividual identity in grief theories, palliative and bereavement care (2020)
Journal Article
Methods: As in life at large, ideas of ‘self’ underlie a great deal of theory and practice in palliative care and in bereavement care, they are frequently implicit, being part of shared cultural assumptions, but may assume a degree of theoretical abs...

Three-dimensional data capture and analysis of intact eye lenses evidences emmetropia-associated changes and strain-dependent differences in epithelial cell organization (2020)
Journal Article
Organ and tissue development are highly coordinated processes; lens growth and functional integration into the eye (emmetropia) is a robust example. An epithelial monolayer covers the anterior hemisphere of the lens, and its organization is the key t...

The relationship between language ability and brain activity across language processes and modalities (2020)
Journal Article
Existing neuroimaging studies on the relationship between language ability and brain activity have found contradictory evidence: On the one hand, increased activity with higher language ability has been interpreted as deeper or more adaptive language...

Cumuliform Cloud Formation Control using Parameter-Predicting Convolutional Neural Network (2020)
Journal Article
Physically-based cloud simulation is an effective approach for synthesizing realistic cloud. However, generating clouds with desired shapes requires a time-consuming process for selecting the appropriate simulation parameters. This paper addresses su...
