A Region Based Descriptor for Spatial Distribution of Motion Activity for Compressed Video
In this paper we present a new descriptor for spatial distribution of motion activity in video sequences. We construct a histogram of areas of distinct regions (or "blobs&quo...

Promoter prediction and annotation of microbial genomes based on DNA sequence and structural responses to superhelical stress
Background: In our previous studies, we found that the sites in prokaryotic genomes which are most susceptible to duplex destabilization under the negative superhelical stresses t...
