A perceptual model of motion quality for rendering with adaptive refresh-rate and resolution

Limited GPU performance budgets and transmission bandwidths mean that real-time rendering often has to compromise on the spatial resolution or temporal resolution (refresh rate). A common practice is to keep either the resolution or the refresh rate constant and dynamically control the other variable. But this strategy is non-optimal when the velocity of displayed content varies. To find the best trade-off between the spatial resolution and refresh rate, we propose a perceptual visual model that predicts the quality of motion given an object velocity and predictability of motion. The model considers two motion artifacts to establish an overall quality score: non-smooth (juddery) motion, and blur. Blur is modeled as a combined effect of eye motion, finite refresh rate and display resolution. To fit the free parameters of the proposed visual model, we measured eye movement for predictable and unpredictable motion, and conducted psychophysical experiments to measure the quality of motion from 50 Hz to 165 Hz. We demonstrate the utility of the model with our on-the-fly motion-adaptive rendering algorithm that adjusts the refresh rate of a G-Sync-capable monitor based on a given rendering budget and observed object motion. Our psychophysical validation experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm performs better than constant-refresh-rate solutions, showing that motion-adaptive rendering is an attractive technique for driving variable-refresh-rate displays.</jats:p

КЛИНИКО-МОРФОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ ОСОБЕННОСТИ НАСЛЕДСТВЕННОГО РАКА ЯИЧНИКА

Germ-line mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are the most established risk factors for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. The purpose of the study was to analyze BRCA1/2 testing in ovarian cancer patients. Materials and methods. We analyzed 222 patients with ovarian cancer (OC) who underwent genetic testing. Results. Recurrent Slavic mutations in these genes were detected in 60/222 (27%) patients.104 patients lacked any clinical signs of hereditary form of the disease, however BRCA1/2 genetic defects were identified among 11 (11%) of these women. BRCA1/2-associated carcinomas were characterized by more advanced stage at diagnosis and predominance of high-grade serous histological tumor subtype. Conclusion. These results emphasize the need for BRCA1/2 testing for all patients with OC. BRCA1/2-associated carcinomas have clinical and pathological cgaracteristics, which should be considered while planning therapy. Наследственные мутации в генах BRCA1 и BRCA2 являются наиболее известными и изученными факторами риска карцином молочной железы и яичника. Цель исследования – анализ опыта BRCA1/2- тестирования больных раком яичника. Материал и методы. Проанализированы данные 222 больных раком яичника (РЯ), направленных на генетическое тестирование. Результаты. Генетический дефект в генах BRCA1/2 был выявлен у 60 (27 %) из 222 пациенток. В группе женщин без клинических признаков наследственной формы заболевания генетические дефекты BRCA1/2 были обнаружены у 11 (11 %) из 104 пациенток. BRCA1/2-ассоциированные карциномы характеризовались более поздней стадией заболевания и преобладанием низкодифференцированного серозного гистологического типа опухоли. Заключение. BRCA1/2-ассоциированные опухоли составляют значимую часть злокачественных новообразований яичника, что обусловливает целесообразность генетического тестирования для всех пациенток с РЯ. BRCA1/2-ассоциированные карциномы имеют клинические и морфологические особенности, которые необходимо учитывать при планировании терапии.
