    摘要: A sensing bone fixing element includes a fixing portion, a fastening portion, a capacitor structure, and a coil. The fastening portion is fixed to the fixing portion and suitable for being fastened to a bone. The fastening portion passes through the capacitor structure which has a capacitance value and includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, and an elastic dielectric layer. The first conductive layer leans against the fixing portion, the second conductive layer leans against the bone, and the elastic dielectric layer is located between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The coil has an inductance value, and two ends of the coil are respectively connected to the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The coil receives a detection radio frequency (RF) signal and generates a responding RF signal according to variations in the capacitance value and the inductance value.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method of calculating an average moment arm row by row, comprising measuring the pressure an object exerts on a pressure sensor matrix, obtaining the pressure values and moment arms for each sensor of the sensor matrix in a time sequence, and calculating an average moment arm for each row of the sensor matrix, to reveal a row of sensors whose pressure is distributed farthest from or closest to the reference axis over time. The present invention also provides a method of calculating a percentage of average moment arm row by row to reveal the relative pressure distribution in a row between the sensors sensing pressure closest to and farthest from the reference axis. The present invention further provides a method of calculating a change of average moment arm and a change of percentage of average moment arm over time row by row.

    摘要: A wound opener is provided. An operative field can be created through head/neck soft tissues for introducing the endoscopes and robotic surgical tools. An incision size can be properly adjusted. Thus, endoscopes, robotic arms or other devices can be smoothly introduced into the operative field to evaluate and treat lesions of head and neck soft tissues. Hence, the present invention facilitates surgical procedure, reduces wound size and effectively conceals wound to make it become invisible.

    摘要: A method for analyzing apoptosis inducing factor-2 (AIF-2) is disclosed, which has not been found in urine samples of human patients with chronic kidney disease, to establish AIF-2 as a non-invasive biomarker for chronic kidney disease. The method includes: collecting a plurality of urine samples; conducting western blot for each urine sample for detecting the AIF-2 protein content in each urine sample; and conducting statistical analysis of the AIF-2 protein content in each urine sample to establish AIF-2 as a biological marker for chronic kidney disease.

    摘要: Disclosed are an object detection method and a convolution neural network. The method is performed through hierarchical architecture of the CNN and includes extracting groups of augmented feature maps from an input image through a backbone and two other groups of feature maps, identifying positive and negative samples with an IOU-based sampling scheme to be proposals for foreground and background through a proposal-sampling classifier, mapping the proposals to regions on the groups of augmented feature maps through the region proposal module, pooling the regions to fixed scale feature maps based on ROI aligning, fusing the fixed scale feature maps, and flattening the fused feature maps to generate an ROI feature vector through an ROI aligner for object classification and box regression. Because extracted features in the groups of augmented feature maps range from spatially-rich features to semantically-rich features, enhanced performance in object classification and box regression can be secured.
