    Abstract: A method of localizing a mobile robot 100 with respect to a target object 601 using an initial map of a reference object which is a representation of the target object is disclosed herein. The method comprises obtaining LiDAR data 503 of the target object 601 captured by a LiDAR device 203 of the mobile robot 100 as the mobile robot 100 traverses in an environment associated with the target object 601 the LiDAR data including respective point cloud representations of the target object 501 and the environment in various sampling instances; iteratively updating pose data representing estimated pose of the mobile robot 100 with respect to a known reference location in corresponding sampling instances as the mobile robot traverses the environment; extracting a subset of LiDAR data points in the point cloud representation of a previous sampling instance, the subset of LiDAR data points corresponding to features of the target object 601 in the initial map based on the estimated pose of the mobile robot 100 associated with the previous sampling instance; obtaining desired LiDAR data points in the point cloud representation in a current sampling instance, the desired LiDAR data points including current LiDAR data points which correspond to the extracted subset of LiDAR data points in the previous sampling instance; and determining a localization pose of the mobile robot 100 with respect to the target object 601 in the current sampling instance based on the desired LiDAR data points. A system for localizing a mobile robot is also disclosed herein.

    Abstract: Various embodiments may relate to a resonator. The resonator may include a support including a substrate portion, and a membrane portion extending from the substrate portion over a cavity. The resonator may also include a piezoelectric layer on the membrane portion. The resonator may further include an electrode on the piezoelectric layer. The substrate portion may include dopants of a first conductivity type. The membrane portion may include dopants of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type. A ratio of a thickness of the membrane portion to a combined thickness of the electrode and the piezoelectric layer may be above 3:1 for temperature compensation.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting and/or characterising an immunosuppressive neutrophil comprising determining and/or measuring the expression of one or more anti-apoptotic markers in a neutrophil population. In an embodiment, the immunosuppressive neutrophil is a polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cell (PMNMDSC) and the anti-apoptotic marker is TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-receptor 3 (TRAILR3/TNFRSF10C) and/or decoy TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-receptor (dcTRAILR1). Also disclosed are methods of evaluating the progression of a proliferative disease in a subject, methods of evaluating the efficacy of a treatment regimen for a proliferative disease in a subject, methods of treating a proliferative disease in a subject, and kits thereof.
