Deep learning skin lesion classifier explained using CAVs.
In this paper, we demonstrate the potential of applying Variational Autoencoder (VAE) [10] for anomaly detection in skin disease images.

Certain classes of 3-manifolds, following Thurston, give rise to a 'skinning map', a self-map of the Teichmüller space of the boundary. This paper examines the skinning map of a 3-manifold M, a genus-2 handlebody with two rank-1 cusps. We exploit an orientation-reversing isometry of M to conclude that the skinning map …
