We present a hybrid approach for modeling complex interior structural elements from the unstructured point cloud without additional information. The proposed approach focuses on an integrated modeling strategy that can reconstruct structural elements and keep the balance of model completeness and quality. First, a data-driven approach detects the complete structure points of indoor scenarios including the curved wall structures and detailed structures. After applying the down-sampling process to point cloud dataset, ceiling and floor points are detected by RANSAC. The ceiling boundary points are selected as seed points of the growing algorithm to acquire points related to the wall segments. Detailed structures points are detected using the Grid-Slices analysis approach. Second, a model-driven refinement is conducted to the structure points that aims to decrease the impact of point cloud accuracy on the quality of the model. RANSAC algorithm is implemented to detect more accurate layout, and the hole in structure points is repaired in this refinement step. Lastly, the Screened Poisson surface reconstruction approach is conducted to generate the model based on the structure points after refinement. Our approach was validated on the backpack laser dataset, handheld laser dataset, and synthetic dataset, and experimental results demonstrate that our approach can preserve the curved wall structures and detailed structures in the model with high accuracy.

Quite recently, considerable attention has been paid to the design, implementation and evaluation of graphical user interfaces due to the apparition of the new strategic trend of computing everywhere. Accordingly, it is necessary to adopt an abstract representation of systems front-end in order to ensure this trend. IFML (Interaction Flow Modeling Language) is a user interfaces description language used to describe the content and interaction behavior of applications front-end. It has been conceived with executability aspect that is obtained via model transformations and full code generators into functional codes. however, these code generators are often accompanied by a loss of information. The main goal of this paper is to present a new virtual machine for directly executing GUIs models designed with IFML language in combination with UML domain model; that captures the content dependency. These input models will be then run on different platforms and devices. We adopted a new model driven approach that includes the hybrid approach of interpretive compiler; through a set of transformation rules, for the implementation of the desired virtual machine.

Abstract. Background: Multilevel peripheral arterial disease is frequently observed in patients with intermittent claudication or critical limb ischemia. This report evaluates the efficacy of one-stage hybrid revascularization in patients with multilevel arterial peripheral disease. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospective database included all consecutive patients treated by a hybrid approach for a multilevel arterial peripheral disease. The primary outcome was the patency rate at 6 months and 1 year. Secondary outcomes were early and midterm complication rate, limb salvage and mortality rate. Statistical analysis, including a Kaplan-Meier estimate and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were carried out with the primary, primary assisted and secondary patency, comparing the impact of various risk factors in pre- and post-operative treatments. Results: 64 patients were included in the study, with a mean follow-up time of 428 days (range: 4 − 1140). The technical success rate was 100 %. The primary, primary assisted and secondary patency rates at 1 year were 39 %, 66 % and 81 %, respectively. The limb-salvage rate was 94 %. The early mortality rate was 3.1 %. Early and midterm complication rates were 15.4 % and 6.4 %, respectively. The early mortality rate was 3.1 %. Conclusions: The hybrid approach is a major alternative in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease in multilevel disease and comorbid patients, with low complication and mortality rates and a high limb-salvage rate.

There are several strategies of surgical approach for the repair of multiple muscular ventricular septal defects (mVSDs), but none leads to a fully predictable, satisfactory therapeutic outcome in infants. We followed a concept of treating multiple mVSDs consisting of a hybrid approach based on intraoperative perventricular implantation of occluding devices. In this report, we describe a 2-step procedure consisting of a final hybrid approach for multiple mVSDs in the infant following initial coarctation repair with pulmonary artery banding in the newborn. At 7 months, sternotomy and debanding were performed, the right ventricle was punctured under transesophageal echocardiographic guidance, and the 8-mm device was implanted into the septal defect. Color Doppler echocardiography results showed complete closure of all VSDs by 11 months after surgery, probably via a mechanism of a localized inflammatory response reaction, ventricular septum growth, and implant endothelization.
