In this work, we propose a new three-dimensional nonlocal spinor superfield model. This theory is constructed by introducing form factors in the local spinor superfield action. Then, we couple it minimally to a scalar superfield, for which we calculate the one-loop effective potential as a first constructive example of perturbative calculations in this new theory.
The purpose of this paper is to provide an algorithm for detecting and tracking astral MTs in a fully automated way and supply a description of their dynamic behaviour. For the algorithm testing, a dataset of stacks (i.e. time-lapse image sequences), acquired with a confocal microscope, has been employed. Cells were treated with two different drugs, nocodazole and taxol, in order to explore their effect on microtubule dynamic instability.
Distributed source coding schemes are typically based on the use of channels codes as source codes. In this paper we propose a new paradigm, termed "distributed arithmetic coding", which exploits the fact that arithmetic codes are good source as well as channel codes. In particular, we propose a distributed binary arithmetic coder for Slepian-Wolf coding with decoder side information, along with a soft joint decoder. The proposed scheme provides several advantages over existing Slepian-Wolf coders, especially its good performance at small block lengths, and the ability to incorporate arbitrary source models in the encoding process, e.g. context-based statistical models. We have compared the performance of distributed arithmetic coding with turbo codes and low-density parity-check codes, and found that the proposed approach has very competitive performance.
