It is well known that the human visual system (HVS) cannot sense all changes in an image/video due to its underlying physiological and psychological mechanisms. We propose a complete masking estimation model for image/video in this paper. In our model, a very important mechanism of the HVS, visual attention, is incorporated to the existing just noticeable difference (JND) estimation models. A formula...

Oxygen is an important parameter with significant effect on cellular development and function. Based on microfluidics, laminar flow and hydrodynamic focusing provide ideal tools for the generation of controlled micro-environments and their application as stimuli to cells. In this paper we demonstrate, for the first time inside a microfluidic device, the generation and characterization of hydrodynamically...
