Major Histocompatibility Complex class I (MHC-I) molecules bind and present peptides to cytotoxic T cells, protecting against pathogens and cancer.MHC-I is highly polymorphic and each allotype is promiscuous, and capable of binding a unique and diverse repertoire of peptide ligands.The peptide editing chaperone tapasin optimizes this allotype speci
Background As BIKINI more preterm infants survive, complications of preterm birth, including retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), become more prevalent.ROP rates and blindness from ROP are higher in low-income and middle-income countries, where exposure to risk factors can be higher and where detection and treatment of ROP are under-resourced or non-e
The task of hyperspectral image completion generally involves random missing entries completion, stripes inpainting, and cloud removal, which can enhance the accuracy of subsequent image analysis.Recently, tensor completion has been presented for image recovery.Owing to the framelet basis redundancy, the tensor rank of the extended tensor via featu
