Structural configuration of the Teras fault (southern Basin and Range Province) and its rupture in the 3 May 1887 MW 7.5 Sonora, Mexico earthquake by Max Suter

“…This suggests that the Teras and Otates segments could be part of a single continuous 1887 rupture that stepped across the structurally complex basement ridge between them. A rough estimate of the average recurrence interval of 1887-size earthquakes on the Teras fault can be obtained from the average slip rate since 23 Ma and the amount of slip on this segment during the 1887 earthquake; the resulting values are 15 to 26 kyr. …”

MICROPERIMETRY AND MORPHOMETRIC PARAMETERS OF OPTIC NERVE HEAD AND MACULAR AREA IN PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY OPEN ANGLE GLAUCOMA by B. M. Aznabaev, A. Sh. Zagidullina, A. A. Alexandrov

“…The highest correlation of morphometric parameters and microperimetry parameters was defined in MI patients with POAG with the focal loss of volume (FLV) of ganglion cells complex (GCC) (ρ = 0,642, p <0,001). A significant positive relationship of moderate strength was found between microperimetry parameter MI in patients with POAG and the FVL GCC (ρ = 0,346, p <0,01), a moderate negative relationship with the index of MI was obtained with an average GCC thickness (ρ = -0,378, p <0 , 01), and an average RNFL thickness (ρ = -0,355, p <0,01). …”

UAV-to-Ground Target Detection Based on YOLO-DSBE by Meng Pengshuai, Wang Feng, Zhai Weiguang, Ma Xingyu, Zhao Wei

“…To address the issues of complex background, small target scale, mutual occlusion and high missed detection rate in UAV captured images, this paper proposes a ground target detection algorithm based on YOLO-DSBE.The DC-ELAN and DC-MP modules based on deformable convolution are proposed to adapt to input features of different shapes and sizes, and to improve the network’s ability to parse features in complex backgrounds; A high-resolution multi-scale detection layer is designed to boost the algorithm’s capability in extracting small target features, thereby improving the detection accuracy of minute targets. …”
