(E)-Methyl N′-[(1H-indol-3-yl)methyl­idene]hydrazinecarboxyl­ate 0.25-hydrate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C11H11N3O2·0.25H2O, contains two independent organic mol­ecules and a water mol­ecule, which lies on a twofold rotation axis. The side chains of the two mol­ecules have slightly different orientations, the C=N—N—C torsion angle being −163.03 (15)° in one and −177.52 (14)° in the other, with each adopting a trans configuration with respect to the C=N bond. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked into chains extending along b by N—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and in addition, four inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions are present

(E)-2-[(2-Amino-4,5-dibromo­phen­yl)imino­meth­yl]-6-methoxy­phenol

The title compound, C14H12Br2N2O2, was prepared from the condensation of 4,5-dibromo-1,2-phenyl­enediamine and 2-hydr­oxy-3-methoxy­benzaldehyde in methanol. The N=C double bond shows a trans conformation and the dihedral angle between the aromatic ring planes is 5.9 (4)°. In the crystal structure, there are intra­molecular O—H⋯N and N—H⋯N and inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, the latter resulting in inversion dimers

Di-μ-chlorido-bis­[chlorido(N,N-di­methyl­ethylenediamine-κ2 N,N′)zinc(II)]

The centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Zn2Cl4(C4H12N2)2], is isostructural with its previously reported CuII analogue [Phelps, Goodman & Hodgson (1976 ▶). Inorg. Chem. 15, 2266–2270]. In the title compound, each of the ZnII ions is coordinated by two N atoms from a chelating N,N-dimethyl­ethylenediamine ligand, two bridging Cl atoms and one terminal Cl atom. The coordination environment is distorted square-pyramidal. The Zn—Cl bond distances of the two bridging Cl atoms are distinctly different: the equatorial Cl atom exbibits a Zn—Cl distance of 2.318 (1) Å and the axial Cl atom exbibits a Zn—Cl distance of 2.747 (2) Å, which is significantly longer. The mol­ecule can thus be seen as a dimer of two nearly square-planar monomeric units which are related to each other by an inversion center located in the middle of the dimer. Within one monomeric unit, the Zn atom, the two N atoms and the two Cl atoms are almost coplanar, with a mean deviation of only 0.05 (1) Å from the associated least-squares plane. The Zn⋯Zn distance within the dimer is 3.472 (3) Å. N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen-bond inter­actions connect neighboring mol­ecules with each other

Tris(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)iron(II) μ-oxido-bis[trichloridoferrate(III)] ethanol hemisolvate

The title compound, [Fe(C12H8N2)3][Fe2Cl6O]·0.5CH3CH2OH, consists of one [Fe(phen)3]2+ cation (phen = 1,10-phen­anthroline), one [Fe2Cl6O]2− anion and one half-mol­ecule of ethanol. In the cation, the FeII atom is coordinated by six N atoms from three phen ligands in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. In the bent anion, two FeIII atoms are connected by a bridging oxide O atom [bridging angle = 160.6 (4)°], and each FeIII atom is also coordinated by three Cl atoms, completing a distorted tetra­hedral geometry

Diaqua­{6,6′-dimeth­oxy-2,2′-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato-κ2 O,N,N′,O′}manganese(III) perchlorate 18-crown-6 hemisolvate monohydrate

In the cation of the title compound, [Mn(C18H18N2O4)(H2O)2]ClO4·0.5C12H24O6·H2O, the MnIII ion is coordinated by two water O atoms, and two O atoms and two N atoms from the tetradentate 6,6′-dimeth­oxy-2,2′-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]di­phenolate ligand, completing a distorted octa­hedral geometry. One O atom of the 18-crown-6-ether is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.70 (2) and 0.30 (2)

Compositor: Bottom-up Clustering and Compositing for Robust Part and Object Segmentation

In this work, we present a robust approach for joint part and object segmentation. Specifically, we reformulate object and part segmentation as an optimization problem and build a hierarchical feature representation including pixel, part, and object-level embeddings to solve it in a bottom-up clustering manner. Pixels are grouped into several clusters where the part-level embeddings serve as cluster centers. Afterwards, object masks are obtained by compositing the part proposals. This bottom-up interaction is shown to be effective in integrating information from lower semantic levels to higher semantic levels. Based on that, our novel approach Compositor produces part and object segmentation masks simultaneously while improving the mask quality. Compositor achieves state-of-the-art performance on PartImageNet and Pascal-Part by outperforming previous methods by around 0.9% and 1.3% on PartImageNet, 0.4% and 1.7% on Pascal-Part in terms of part and object mIoU and demonstrates better robustness against occlusion by around 4.4% and 7.1% on part and object respectively.
