Year: 2012

description: Aged-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye condition among people older than 65 years and is a leading cause of vision loss. It gradually destroys the macula, the part of the eye that provides sharp, central vision needed for seeing objects clearly. This study aims to test the hypothesis that the morphology of retina pigment epithelium, a key site of AMD pathology, can reflect the various stresses aging and AMD progression impose. We first identify and separate the young and old age group for mouse eyes. Then we classify, the mouse eyes using two genotypes (C57BL/6L, RD10), and two age group (young, old).We show that without dimensional reduction, the cell area and shape measures do not provide good classification of the mouse eyes.
But with the dimension reduction at the eye level, the cell area and shape measures provide excellent classification for mouse genotype and age.

description: Doxorubicin (DOXO) induces significant, but transient, increases in apoptosis in the stem cell zone of the jejunum, followed by mucosal damage involving a decrease in crypt proliferation, crypt number, and villus height. The gastrointestinal tract is home to a vast population of commensal bacteria and numerous studies have demonstrated a symbiotic relationship between intestinal bacteria and intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) in maintaining homeostatic functions of the intestine. However, whether enteric bacteria play a role in DOXO-induced damage is not well understood. We hypothesized that enteric bacteria are necessary for induction of apoptosis and damage associated with DOXO treatment. Conventionally raised (CONV) and germ free (GF) mice were given a single injection of DOXO, and intestinal tissue was collected at 6, 72, and 120 h after treatment and from no treatment (0 h) controls. Histology and morphometric analyses quantified apoptosis, mitosis, crypt depth, villus height, and crypt density. Immunostaining for muc2 and lysozyme evaluated Paneth cells, goblet cells or dual stained intermediate cells. DOXO administration induced significant increases in apoptosis in jejunal epithelium regardless of the presence of enteric bacteria; however, the resulting injury, as demonstrated by statistically significant changes in crypt depth, crypt number, and proliferative cell number, was dependent upon the presence of enteric bacteria. Furthermore, we observed expansion of Paneth and goblet cells and presence of intermediate cells only in CONV and not GF mice. These findings provide evidence that manipulation and/or depletion of the enteric microbiota may have clinical significance in limiting chemotherapy-induced mucositis.

description: OBJECTIVES: To determine the relationship between severity of stenosis and hemodynamic significance in calcified coronary arteries.
BACKGROUND: Severity of stenosis is widely used to determine the need for revascularization but the effect of lesion calcification on hemodynamic significance is not well understood.
METHODS: Two hundred consecutive patients undergoing fractional flow reserve (FFR) testing of an intermediate coronary lesion with a pressure wire and intravenous infusion of adenosine were studied. Coronary calcium was quantified based upon radiopacities at the site of the stenosis on cineangiography using the method of Mintz et al. (0 = none or mild calcium, 1 = moderate calcium, 2 = severe calcium).
RESULTS: Mean age was 61 ± 11 years, 66% were males, 87.5% had hypertension, 44.5% had diabetes, and 20.5% were current smokers. The mean coronary stenosis by quantitative coronary angiography was 60 ± 12% and the mean FFR was 0.83 ± 0.08. There were 109, 45, and 46 patients classified as Calcium Score of 0, 1, or 2, respectively. Compared to those with no/mild or moderate calcification, patients with severe coronary calcium were older and more likely to have chronic kidney disease and pulmonary disease. The correlation between angiographic severity and FFR decreased as lesion calcification increased [calcium score = 0 (R2  = 0.25, P < 0.005); calcium score = 1 (R2  = 0.11, P < 0.005); calcium score = 2 (R2  = 0.02, P = 0.35)].
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with heavily calcified coronary lesions, there was no association between angiographic stenosis and hemodynamic significance and FFR is needed to determine hemodynamic significance of intermediate lesions. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

description: The emergence of Generation Z, born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, into the nursing profession signifies a global transformation in healthcare and nursing education, driven by their digital fluency, emphasis on work-life balance, and preference for innovative, interactive, and collaborative learning approaches. This qualitative study explored the perceived roles and lived experiences of Generation Z (Gen Z) nurses in shaping responsive nursing education within the National Capital Region (NCR), Philippines. As digital natives born between 1995 and 2010, Gen Z nurses bring a unique set of competencies, preferences, and values that are redefining traditional educational models. Using a phenomenological design, twelve purposively selected Gen Z nurses participated in semi-structured interviews to examine their engagement with technological integration, curriculum advocacy, peer mentorship, and educational innovation. Thematic analysis revealed three overarching roles: Catalysts, Advocates, and Innovators. As Catalysts, Gen Z nurses promoted the integration of immersive learning tools such as virtual reality, simulation-based training, mobile applications, and artificial intelligence in clinical education. As Advocates, they influenced policy and curriculum redesign, championed diversity and inclusion, and facilitated peer mentorship programs. As Innovators, they embodied lifelong learning, promoted evidence-based pedagogy, encouraged interprofessional collaboration, and demonstrated creative problem-solving to overcome instructional and clinical limitations. These findings underscore the vital contribution of Gen Z nurses in modernizing nursing education and ensuring its alignment with future healthcare demands. The study recommends embedding student-driven innovation hubs, digital literacy frameworks, inclusive pedagogy, and interdisciplinary practices into nursing curricula.

description: OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of BMI on pathologic findings, cancer recurrence and survival in cervical cancer patients.
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of cervical cancer patients treated from July 2000 to March 2013 was performed. BMI was calculated, and patients were classified by BMI. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS). Secondary outcomes included stage, histopathology, disease-specific survival (DSS) and recurrence free survival (RFS). Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated and compared using Cox proportional hazard ratios.
RESULTS: Of 632 eligible patients, 24 (4%) were underweight, 191 (30%) were normal weight, 417 (66%) were overweight/obese. There was no difference in age (p=0.91), stage at presentation (p=0.91), grade (p=0.46), or histology (p=0.76) between weight categories. There were fewer White patients in the underweight (54%) and overweight/obese (58%) groups compared to the normal weight (71%) group (p=0.04). After controlling for prognostic factors, underweight and overweight/obese patients had worse median RFS than normal weight patients (7.6 v 25.0months, p=0.01 and 20.3 v 25.0months, p=0.03). Underweight patients also had worse OS (10.4 v 28.4months, p=0.031) and DSS (13.8 v 28.4months, p=0.04) compared to normal weight patients. Overweight/obese patients had worse OS than normal weight patients (22.2 v 28.4months, p=0.03) and a trend toward worse DSS (21.9 v 28.4months, p=0.09).
CONCLUSION: Both extremes of weight (underweight and overweight/obesity) were associated with worse survival in patients with cervical cancer. Optimizing weight in cervical cancer patients may improve outcomes in these patients.

description: Since 2015, Canada has experienced a new wave of influx of Hong Kong residents moving to Canada. However, their settlement and integration conditions are not known outside the Hong Kong immigrant community. The purposes of this study are to fill this knowledge gap and to provide empirical evidence to inform government policies to support this group of newcomers to successfully settle and integrate in the Canadian society. To reach this widely spread population, an online survey was conducted from December 19, 2022 to February 28, 2023. We targeted the survey to people who a) resided in Hong Kong consecutively for over five years in the 10 years prior to their recent return/move to Canada; b) returned to or arrived in Canada on or after January 1, 2015; c) lived in Canada consecutively for over six months at the time when they responded to the survey; d) are currently living in Canada; and e) 19 or over years old. A total of 1053 people attempted the survey and 660 completed responses were recorded and analyzed. In this report, we provide a descriptive summary of the general profile, settlement and integration conditions of this group of respondents.

description: Depression is a common but serious illness, which may have significant impact on a person?s daily life. This study examined racial/ethnic disparities on the prevalence of lifetime diagnosis of depression and current depression according to 2010 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data. Logistic regression models were constructed to calculate odds ratios for comparing prevalence rates of depression across racial/ethnic groups. Significant racial/ethnic differences were found in both the prevalence of lifetime diagnosis of depression and current depression. Regional disparities were also found to be significant in the prevalence of depressive disorders across racial/ethnic groups.

description: There is a deeply entrenched view in philosophy and physics, the closed systems view, according to which isolated systems are conceived of as fundamental. On this view, when a system is under the influence of its environment this is described in terms of a coupling between it and a separate system which taken together are isolated. We argue against this view, and in favor of the alternative open systems view, for which systems interacting with their environment are conceived of as fundamental, and the environment's influence is represented via the dynamical equations that govern the system's evolution. Taking quantum theories of closed and open systems as our case study, and considering three alternative notions of fundamentality: (i)~ontic fundamentality, (ii)~epistemic fundamentality, and (iii)~explanatory fundamentality, we argue that the open systems view is fundamental, and that this has important implications for the philosophy of physics, the philosophy of science, and for metaphysics.

description: In clinical studies, it is often of interest to see the diagnostic agreement among clinicians on certain symptoms. Previous work has focused on the agreement between two clinicians under two different conditions or the agreement among multiple clinicians under one condition. Few have discussed the agreement study with a design where multiple clinicians examine the same group of patients under two different conditions. In this paper, we use the intraclass kappa statistic for assessing nominal scale agreement with such a design. We derive an explicit variance formula for the difference of correlated kappa statistics and conduct hypothesis testing for the equality of kappa statistics. Simulation studies show that the method performs well with realistic sample sizes and may be superior to a method that did not take into account the measurement dependence structure. The practical utility of the method is illustrated on data from an eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) study.

Destination After Entering Foster Care: Road Toward Stability
Creators: name: Yang, Dong
Publisher: name: Georgia State University

description: The duration of children stay in a temporary foster care system needs to be minimal in order to ensure a stable and successful life. However, a time-consuming procedure of investigations is usually taken to decide whether they can reunite with their birth parents. Moreover, if the child fails to reunite with their family, another discharge decision needs to be assessed, leading to even longer time without a normal life. Based on the data from Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS), this thesis derives a prediction model to discriminate the children with a tendency of unsuccessful reunification from the rest. An alternative discharge option can therefore be prepared concurrently for the foster youth with high non-reunification probability. The model is obtained by logistic regression and evaluated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

description: The need for benchmarking hydrogen evolution catalysts has increasingly been recognized. The influence of acid choice on activity is often reduced to the overpotential for catalysis. Through the study of a stable cobalt hydride complex, we demonstrate the influence of acid choice, beyond pKa, on the kinetics of hydride formation. A linear free energy relationship between acid pKa and second-order rate constants is observed for weaker acids. For stronger acids, however, further increases in pKa do not correlate to increases in rate constants. Further, steric bulk around the acidic proton is shown to influence rate constants dramatically. Together, these observations reveal the complex factors dictating catalyst performance.

description: Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a key site of pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). A key first step toward developing statistical quantifications of RPE morphology is image analysis of RPE flatmount. This thesis work aims to facilitate image analysis by developing a procedure for automated selecting regions with biological information from flatmount images.  Our new approach, based on clustering analysis, can extract informative regions from a typical flatmount image of a mouse eye within one minute, a three order magnitude time saving improvement from the current manual procedure.  This method is already contributing to the image analysis of RPE flatmounts.
Quantifying Ligand Exchange Reactions at CdSe Nanocrystal Surfaces

description: The exchange reactions of X-type ligands at the surface of CdSe nanocrystals have been quantified via 1H NMR, absorbance, and emission spectroscopies. 1H NMR was used to quantify displacement reactions of oleate-capped CdSe nanocrystals with carboxylic-acid-, phosphonic-acid-, and thiol-terminated ligands that incorporate terminal alkene functionalities. The alkenyl protons of the native oleate ligand and the vinylic protons of the exchange ligand provide spectroscopic handles to quantify both free and surface-bound forms of these ligands. Undec-10-enoic acid was found to undergo an exchange equilibrium with oleate (K eq = 0.83), whereas phosphonic-acid- and thiol-terminated ligands irreversibly displace native oleate ligands. Absorption and emission experiments indicate that the carboxylic acid exchanges occur solely between surface-bound ligands, whereas exchange reactions with phosphonic acids and thiols alter the surface metal atoms of the nanocrystals, presumably through the displacement of Cd­(oleate)2. These quantifications can be used to guide the selective functionalization of CdSe nanocrystals.

description: Kitaev's quantum double model is a lattice gauge theoretic realization of Dijkgraaf-Witten topological quantum field theory (TQFT), its topologically protected ground state space has broad applications for topological quantum computation and topological quantum memory. We investigate the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry enriched generalization of the model for the cyclic Abelian group in a categorical framework and present an explicit Hamiltonian construction. This model provides a lattice realization of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry enriched topological (SET) phase. We discuss in detail the categorical symmetry of the phase, for which the electric-magnetic (EM) duality symmetry is a special case. The aspects of symmetry defects are investigated using the $G$-crossed unitary braided fusion category (UBFC). By determining the corresponding anyon condensation, the gapped boundaries and boundary-bulk duality are also investigated. Then we carefully construct the explicit lattice realization of EM duality for these SET phases.

description: Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a principal site of pathogenesis in age-related macular de-generation (AMD). AMD is a main source of vision loss even blindness in the elderly and there is no effective treatment right now. Our aim is to describe the relationship between the morphology of RPE cells and the age and genotype of the eyes. We use principal component analysis (PCA) or functional principal component method (FPCA), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) methods to analyze the morphological data of RPE cells in mouse eyes to classify their age and genotype. Our analyses show that amongst all morphometric measures of RPE cells, cell shape measurements (eccentricity and solidity) are good for classification. But combination of cell shape and size (perimeter) provide best classification.

description: BACKGROUND: High affinity androgen binding to the androgen receptor (AR) activates genes required for male sex differentiation and promotes the development and progression of prostate cancer. Human AR transcriptional activity involves interactions with coregulatory proteins that include primate-specific melanoma antigen-A11 (MAGE-A11), a coactivator that increases AR transcriptional activity during prostate cancer progression to castration-resistant/recurrent prostate cancer (CRPC).
METHODS: Microarray analysis and quantitative RT-PCR were performed to identify androgen-regulated MAGE-A11-dependent genes in LAPC-4 prostate cancer cells after lentivirus shRNA knockdown of MAGE-A11. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was used to assess androgen-dependent AR recruitment, and immunocytochemistry to localize an androgen-dependent protein in prostate cancer cells and tissue and in the CWR22 human prostate cancer xenograft.
RESULTS: Microarray analysis of androgen-treated LAPC-4 prostate cancer cells indicated follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1) is up-regulated by MAGE-A11. Androgen-dependent up-regulation of FSTL1 was inhibited in LAPC-4 cells by lentivirus shRNA knockdown of AR or MAGE-A11. Chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrated AR recruitment to intron 10 of the FSTL1 gene that contains a classical consensus androgen response element. Increased levels of FSTL1 protein in LAPC-4 cells correlated with higher levels of MAGE-A11 relative to other prostate cancer cells. FSTL1 mRNA levels increased in CRPC and castration-recurrent CWR22 xenografts in association with predominantly nuclear FSTL1. Increased nuclear localization of FSTL1 in prostate cancer was suggested by predominantly cytoplasmic FSTL1 in benign prostate epithelial cells and predominantly nuclear FSTL1 in epithelial cells in CRPC tissue and the castration-recurrent CWR22 xenograft. AR expression studies showed nuclear colocalization of AR and endogenous FSTL1 in response to androgen.
CONCLUSION: AR and MAGE-A11 cooperate in the up-regulation of FSTL1 to promote growth and progression of CRPC. Prostate 77:505-516, 2017. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

description: Development of a network for remote entanglement of quantum processors is an outstanding challenge in quantum information science. We propose and analyze a two-species architecture for remote entanglement of neutral atom quantum computers based on integration of optically trapped atomic qubit arrays with fast optics for photon collection. One of the atomic species is used for atom-photon entanglement, and the other species provides local processing. We compare the achievable rates of remote entanglement generation for two optical approaches: free space photon collection with a lens and a near-concentric, long working distance resonant cavity. Laser cooling and trapping within the cavity removes the need for mechanical transport of atoms from a source region, which allows for a fast repetition rate. Using optimized values of the cavity finesse, remote entanglement generation rates $> 10^3~\rm s^{-1}$ are predicted for experimentally feasible parameters.

description: We consider hierarchical regression models for circular data using the projected normal distribution, applied in the development of weights for the Access Point Angler Intercept Survey, a recreational angling survey conducted by the US National Marine Fisheries Service. Weighted estimates of recreational fish catch are used in stock assessments and fisheries regulation. The construction of the survey weights requires the distribution of daily departure times of anglers from fishing sites, within spatio-temporal domains subdivided by the mode of fishing. Because many of these domains have small sample sizes, small area estimation methods are developed. Bayesian inference for the circular distributions on the 24-hour clock is conducted, based on a large set of observed daily departure times from another National Marine Fisheries Service study, the Coastal Household Telephone Survey. A novel variational/Laplace approximation to the posterior distribution allows fast comparison of a large number of models in this context, by dramatically speeding up computations relative to the fast Markov Chain Monte Carlo method while giving virtually identical results.

The Topology and Algebraic Functions on Affine Algebraic Sets Over an Arbitrary Field
Creators: name: Preslicka, Anthony
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2012

description: This thesis presents the theory of affine algebraic sets defined over an arbitrary field K. We define basic concepts such as the Zariski topology, coordinate ring of functions, regular functions, and dimension. We are interested in the relationship between the geometry of an affine algebraic set over a field K and its geometry induced by the algebraic closure of K. Various versions of Hilbert-Nullstellensatz are presented, introducing a new variant over finite fields. Examples are provided throughout the paper and a question on the dimension of irreducible affine algebraic sets is formulated.

a single root cause, in which a constellation of
genetic, epigenetic, demographic, and environmental
factors converge to enable disease expression.
Although novel genetic and molecular defects
predisposing to glomerular disease development
have recently been elucidated representing major
breakthroughs in the field, the demographic predilections
and environmental triggers that regulate
disease onset and progression remain poorly understood.
To this end, exploring the epidemiology of
glomerular disease provides useful insights.

description: The development of the technology makes it possible to measure large amount of genes expressions simultaneously. Since biological functions are mostly coordinated by multiple genes, called ?gene pathway?, it is interesting to identify differential gene pathways which are associated with clinical phenotype. Principal component analysis has been proposed to identify differential gene pathways in several literatures, while sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) has not drawn any attention. We proposed to use SPCA to identify differential gene pathways. The results show that, comparing to PCA, SPCA could identify more differential expressed gene pathways, especially when the higher-order interactions among genes are considered.

description: Comprehending and critically analyzing complex, content-rich text is an essential requirement of academic excellence as well as a life-long skill for students. Unfortunately, students often struggle to comprehend print and digital media, and subsequently, they are unable to complete essential tasks, such as identifying information, making inferences, examining arguments, or vetting sources. In the present study, we compared the effectiveness of three reading interventions (i.e., Quality Talk (QT), Think before reading, think While reading, think After reading (TWA), and TWA/QT Hybrid) in promoting fourth- and fifth-grade students’ reading comprehension and critical–analytic thinking. Specifically, teachers in each intervention delivered the respective instructional mini-lessons in their language arts classes and conducted weekly text-based discussions. The results suggested that the Hybrid and QT interventions were effective at promoting high-level comprehension among fourth- and fifth-grade students. Evidence supported that students participating in the Hybrid and QT interventions engaged in more critical–analytic thinking during text-based discussions than those who received the TWA intervention, as evidenced by statistically significantly greater numbers of student-generated authentic questions and elaborated explanations. The Hybrid and QT interventions were also found to effectively boost students’ oral reading fluency in both grades across two phases. Moreover, fifth-grade students who participated in the Hybrid intervention outperformed their peers from the TWA group on the post-discussion reading comprehension assessments.
On the primality of totally ordered $q$-factorization graphs

description: We introduce the combinatorial notion of a $q$-fatorization graph intended as a tool to study and express results related to the classification of prime simple modules for quantum affine algebras. These are directed graphs equipped with three decorations: a coloring and a weight map on vertices, and an exponent map on arrows (the exponent map can be seen as a weight map on arrows). Such graphs do not contain oriented cycles and, hence, the set of arrows induces a partial order on the set of vertices. In this first paper on the topic, beside setting the theoretical base of the concept, we establish several criteria for deciding whether or not a tensor product of two simple modules is a highest-$\ell$-weight module and use such criteria to prove, for type $A$, that a simple module whose $q$-factorization graph has a totally ordered vertex set is prime.
Observation of four-top-quark production in the multilepton final state with the ATLAS detector
Creators: name: ATLAS Collaboration
Publisher: name: Springer Berlin Heidelberg
Year: 2023

description: This paper presents the observation of four-topquark (ttt¯ t ¯) production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The analysis is performed using an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected using the ATLAS detector. Events containing two leptons with the same electric charge or at least three leptons (electrons or muons) are selected. Event kinematics are used to separate signal from background through a multivariate discriminant, and dedicated control regions are used to constrain the dominant backgrounds. The observed (expected) significance of the measured ttt¯ t ¯signal with respect to the standard model (SM) background-only hypothesis is 6.1 (4.3) standard deviations. The ttt¯ t ¯ production cross section is measured to be 22.5+6.6 −5.5 fb, consistent with the SM prediction of 12.0 ± 2.4 fb within 1.8 standard deviations. Data are also used to set limits on the three-top-quark production cross section, being an irreducible background not measured previously, and to constrain the top-Higgs Yukawa coupling and effective field theory operator coefficients that affect ttt¯ t ¯production.
Small Improvement to the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test
Creators: name: Dong, Xing
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2013

description: The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test is widely used as a goodness-of-fit test. This thesis consists of two parts to describe ways to improve the classical K-S test in both 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional data. The first part is about how to improve the accuracy of the classical K-S goodness-of-fit test in 1-dimensional data. We replace the p-values estimated by the asymptotic distribution with near-exact p-values. In the second part, we propose two new methods to increase power of the widely used 2-dimensional two-sample Fasano and Franceschini test. Simulation studies show the new methods are significantly more powerful than the Fasano and Franceschini?s test.

description: We continue the study of prime simple modules for quantum affine algebras from the perspective of $q$-fatorization graphs. In this paper we establish several properties related to simple modules whose $q$-factorization graphs are afforded by trees. The two most important of them are proved for type $A$. The first completes the classification of the prime simple modules with three $q$-factors by giving a precise criterion for the primality of a $3$-vertex line which is not totally ordered. Using a very special case of this criterion, we then show that a simple module whose $q$-factorization graph is afforded by an arbitrary tree is real. Indeed, the proof of the latter works for all types, provided the aforementioned special case is settled in general.

description: Effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) is essential for viral suppression (VS) in HIV-infected patients. However, there is a lack of nationally representative data on types of ART regimens used and their impact on VS. This thesis used self-reported interview and abstracted medical record from 2009 Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) to study ART regimen type and related health outcomes. Results showed that 88.6% of HIV-infected adults in care was prescribed ART, and about half took regimens designated as ?preferred? according to U.S ART guidelines. Among MMP participants prescribed ART, 62.7% achieved durable VS, 77.8% achieved recent VS, 83.5% were 100% dose-adherent, and 17.1% reported side effects. Multivariate regression analyses revealed that although ART was critical for VS, there were minor differences in health outcomes among the major ART classes in the U.S. ART guidelines or six most-commonly used regimens. This study could be potentially useful for future strategic planning of HIV care.

description: Airplane detection from satellite imagery is a challenging task due to the complex backgrounds in the images and differences in data acquisition conditions caused by the sensor geometry and atmospheric effects. Deep learning methods provide reliable and accurate solutions for automatic detection of airplanes; however, huge amount of training data is required to obtain promising results. In this study, we create a novel airplane detection dataset called High Resolution Planes (HRPlanes) by using images from Google Earth (GE) and labeling the bounding box of each plane on the images. HRPlanes include GE images of several different airports across the world to represent a variety of landscape, seasonal and satellite geometry conditions obtained from different satellites. We evaluated our dataset with two widely used object detection methods namely YOLOv4 and Faster R-CNN. Our preliminary results show that the proposed dataset can be a valuable data source and benchmark data set for future applications. Moreover, proposed architectures and results of this study could be used for transfer learning of different datasets and models for airplane detection.
