Mr. Jiayu Han | Northeast Electric Power University | China

Mr. Jiayu Han is a student at Northeast Electric Power University in Jilin City, China, currently enrolled in the School of Computer Science. In October 2025, he co-authored a peer-reviewed journal article titled “DocCPLNet: Document Image Rectification via Control Point and Illumination Correction,” published in Sensors (Volume 25, Article 6304). This research introduces DocCPLNet, a deep learning framework designed to rectify distortions in document images captured by digital cameras. The method utilizes control points and illumination correction to enhance image quality, demonstrating robust performance across various scenarios. As of now, Mr. Han has one publication to his name. The article has been accepted and published, but citation metrics such as the number of citations and h-index are not available due to the recent publication date.

Signal peptide peptidase-like 2b modulates the amyloidogenic pathway and exhibits an Aβ-dependent expression in Alzheimer’s disease

Journal: Progress in Neurobiology
Publication Date: April 2024
DOI: 10.1016/j.pneurobio.2024.102585
ISSN: 0301-0082
Contributors: Riccardo Maccioni, Caterina Travisan, Jack Badman, Stefania Zerial, Annika Wagener, Yuniesky Andrade-Talavera, Federico Picciau, Caterina Grassi, Gefei Chen, Laetitia Lemoine, et al.
Summary: This study investigates the role of Signal peptide peptidase-like 2b (SPPL2b) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The research demonstrates that SPPL2b modulates the amyloidogenic pathway and its expression is dependent on amyloid-beta (Aβ) presence. The findings suggest that targeting SPPL2b could provide new therapeutic avenues for managing AD.

Targeting galectin-3 to counteract spike-phase uncoupling of fast-spiking interneurons to gamma oscillations in Alzheimer’s disease

Journal: Translational Neurodegeneration
Publication Date: 2023
DOI: 10.1186/S40035-023-00338-0
WOSUID: WOS:000924688700001
Contributors: Luis Enrique Arroyo-Garcia, Sara Bachiller, Rocio Ruiz, Antonio Boza-Serrano, Antonio Rodriguez-Moreno, Tomas Deierborg, Yuniesky Andrade-Talavera, André Fisahn
Summary: This research explores the potential of targeting galectin-3 to mitigate the disruption of spike-phase coupling in fast-spiking interneurons, which is crucial for gamma oscillations in the brain. The study’s outcomes indicate that galectin-3 modulation could restore gamma oscillations and ameliorate cognitive deficits in Alzheimer’s disease.
