Adversarial Patch Attacks on Monocular Depth Estimation Networks
Thanks to the excellent learning capability of deep convolutional neural
networks (CNN), monocular depth estimation using CNNs has achieved great
success in recent years. However, depth estimation from a monocular image alone
is essentially an ill-posed problem, and thus, it seems that this approach
would have inherent vulnerabilities. To reveal this limitation, we propose a
method of adversarial patch attack on monocular depth estimation. More
specifically, we generate artificial patterns (adversarial patches) that can
fool the target methods into estimating an incorrect depth for the regions
where the patterns are placed. Our method can be implemented in the real world
by physically placing the printed patterns in real scenes. We also analyze the
behavior of monocular depth estimation under attacks by visualizing the
activation levels of the intermediate layers and the regions potentially
affected by the adversarial attack.Comment: Publisher's Open Access PDF with the CC-BY copyright. Associated

A comprehensive framework for visual quality assessment of light field tensor displays
In recent years, light field technology has attracted the interest of academia and industry, thanks to the possibility of rendering 3D scenes in a more realistic and immersive way. In particular, light field displays have been consistently investigated for their ability to offer a glass-free 3D viewing experience. Among others, tensor displays represent a promising way to render light field contents. However, only a few prototypes of such type of displays have been implemented and are available to the scientific community. As a direct consequence, the visual quality of such displays has not been rigorously investigated. In this paper, we propose a new framework to assess the visual quality of light field tensor displays on conventional 2D screens. The multilayer components of the tensor displays are virtually rendered on a typical 2D monitor through the use of a GUI, and different viewing angles can be accessed by simple mouse interactions. Both single and double stimulus methodologies for subjective quality assessment of light field contents are supported in this framework, while the total time of interaction is recorded for every stimulus. Results obtained in two different laboratory settings demonstrate that the framework can be successfully used to perform subjective quality assessment of different compression solutions for light field tensor displays
Free Flap Blood Flow Evaluated Using Two-Dimensional Laser Speckle Flowgraphy
Objective. We investigated the efficiency of laser speckle flowgraphy for evaluating blood flow in free flaps used for plastic surgery.
Methods. We measured blood flow using a visual laser meter capable of providing two-dimensional color graphic representations of flow distribution for a given area using a dynamic laser speckle effect. Using laser speckle flowgraphy, we examined the blood flow of 20 free flaps applied following the excision of head and neck tumors.
Results. After anastomosis of the feeding and draining blood vessels and sewing the flap, musculocutaneous (MC) flaps showed significantly lower blood flow than jejunal or omental flaps (P < .05). The ratio of blood flow decrease from the edge to the center was significantly greater in MC flaps than in jejunal or omental flaps (P < .001).
Conclusion. Laser speckle flowgraphy is useful for the perioperative measurement of blood flow in free flaps used in plastic surgery. This method is a highly useful, practical, and reliable tool for assessing cutaneous blood flow and is expected to be applicable to several clinical fields
Assessment of Growth Disturbance in Japanese Children with IBD
In Japan, there is as yet no report on growth retardation in children with IBD. We therefore investigated the cause of growth retardation in Japanese children with IBD. We investigated the height, body weight, serum levels of albumin, IGF-I, CRP, and cytokines, and the amount of corticosteroid administered in children with Crohn's disease (CD, n = 15) and ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 18). Our results suggest that growth retardation is already present before the initial visit in children with CD, and chronic inflammation may be responsible this growth disturbance. Moreover, the amount of PSL used may contribute to growth retardation by decreasing the serum levels of IGF-I in children with IBD
