CD81 is a receptor for equine arteritis virus (family: Arteriviridae) by Sara M. Maloney, Teressa M. Shaw, Kylie M. Nennig, Malorie S. Larsen, Aadit Shah, Ashish Kumar, Joseph Marcotrigiano, Joe Grove, Eric J. Snijder, Robert N. Kirchdoerfer, Adam L. Bailey

“…Bypassing the entry step of the viral life cycle by transfecting the EAV genome into CD81-knockout cells produced infectious EAV, implicating CD81 in the EAV entry process. Screening of CD81 orthologs from natural arterivirus hosts identified the brushtail possum CD81 as unsupportive of EAV entry, indicating that CD81 incompatibility can serve as a barrier to cross-species infection. …”

Multipurpose watermarking realizing image copyright notification,copyright protection and content authentication by ZHU Cong-xu

“…A multipurpose image watermarking scheme based on chaotic systems and sub-image lifting wavelet transformation（LWT） was proposed.Firstly, the host image was divided into 8×8 sub-images and each sub-image was performed 2-level LWT.Then, the invisible watermarks for copyright protection and content authentication were respectively embedded into low and intermediate frequency LWT components of some sub-images that were randomly selected by general Arnold map.A new kind of quantization technique was adopted in the embedding process and the extracting process was blind.Secondly, the visible watermarks for copyright notification were embedded into the image spatial domain based on image fusion method, in which the embedding coefficients were generated by the 4D hyperchaotic sequences.Experimental results were presented, showing that the proposed watermarking scheme is effective.…”

The Right to the Museum: From the White Cube to the Critical Museum by Sara Pastore

“…Building on this, the article draws upon institutional critique and critical museology to explore the reconceptualization of the museum as a critical institution: one endowed with social agency and accountability towards the communities that host and engage with it. Focusing on the urban dimension, the article examines the relationship between museums and the premises and practices of critical urbanism, mapping how their interactions with the cities they inhabit have evolved. …”
