Exploring the origins of EEG motion artefacts during simultaneous fMRI acquisition: Implications for motion artefact correction
( Academic Press Inc. , 2018 , Article)Motion artefacts (MAs) are induced within EEG data collected simultaneously with fMRI when the subject's head rotates relative to the magnetic field. The effects of these artefacts have generally been ameliorated by removing ... -
Fabrication and applications of nickel selenide
( Academic Press Inc. , 2019 , Article)This article presents synthetic strategies of different phases and morphologies of nickel selenide in terms of solid state reactions, solvothermal and hydrothermal processes, electrodeposition, precipitation reactions, ... -
Hadoop Perfect File: A fast and memory-efficient metadata access archive file to face small files problem in HDFS
( Academic Press Inc. , 2021 , Article)HDFS faces several issues when it comes to handling a large number of small files. These issues are well addressed by archive systems, which combine small files into larger ones. They use index files to hold relevant ... -
Multiscale structural evolution of citrate-triggered intrafibrillar and interfibrillar mineralization in dense collagen gels
( Academic Press Inc. , 2020 , Article)The mineralized extracellular matrix of bone is an organic?inorganic nanocomposite consisting primarily of carbonated hydroxyapatite, fibrous type I collagen, noncollagenous proteins, proteoglycans, and diverse biomolecules ... -
Post K-Pg diversification of the mammalian order Eulipotyphla as suggested by phylogenomic analyses of ultra-conserved elements
( Academic Press Inc. , 2019 , Article)The origin of the mammalian order Eulipotyphla has been debated intensively with arguments around whether they began diversifying before or after the Cretaceous-Palaeogene (K-Pg) boundary at 66 Ma. Here, we used an in-solution ... -
