  • Patent number: 11928792
    Abstract: Disclosed is a fusion network-based method for image super-resolution and non-uniform motion deblurring. The method achieves, for the first time, restoration of a low-resolution non-uniform motion-blurred image based on a deep neural network. The network uses two branch modules to respectively extract features for image super-resolution and non-uniform motion deblurring, and achieves, by means of a feature fusion module that is trainable, adaptive fusion of outputs of the two branch modules for extracting features. Finally, an upsampling reconstruction module achieves a non-uniform motion deblurring and super-resolution task. According to the method, a self-generated set of training data is configured to perform offline training on a network, thereby achieving restoration of the low-resolution non-uniform motion-blurred image.

  • Publication number: 20240074990
    Abstract: The present invention relates to application of gossypol and its optical isomers to preparation of an anti-Coronavirus drug. Specifically disclosed is application of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, isotopes, stereoisomers, stereoisomer mixtures, and tautomers of the gossypol and its optical isomers to preparation of a drug for preventing and/or treating a disease caused by a Coronavirus. The Coronavirus is MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV, or SARS-CoV-2. It is found in the present invention for the first time that the gossypol and its optical isomers can inhibit the activity of Coronavirus 3CL proteases to achieve an anti-Coronavirus effect. The half maximal inhibitory concentrations of gossypol and (?)-gossypol to SARS-CoV proteases and SARS-CoV-2 3CL proteases are all lower than 10 ?M. The anti-Coronavirus 3CL protease effect is good. Therefore, the gossypol and its optical isomers have the potential for use in the preparation of a drug for preventing and/or treating novel Coronavirus infections.
