The participants identified the following five key points for optimal image acquisition: five sites per organ, avoidance of pressure artifacts, elimination of secretions, adequate focus and contrast adjustment, and recording quality.
This effect was dependent on R26 FlpoER1 (not shown) and thus not an artifact resulting from elimination of GFP (see Additional file 1, Figure S2).
In the AMR investigation, an 'interfering event' is one located near the 'target event', with a magnitude difference from the 'target event' less than 1.0 (e.g., Brehm and Braile, 1998), causing an abrupt change of the AMR curve, which is considered as an artifact in need of elimination.
Comparing the second and the fourth column, it is obvious improvement achieved with the proposed procedure in elimination of artifacts from the decision-based/adaptive median filters.
Data normalization was performed in multiple steps based on the raw fluorescence intensities ensuring the elimination of artifacts resulting from the unequal distribution of probes or from unbalanced fluorescence intensities within one microarray slide.
For the elimination of artifacts caused by eye and body movements, EEG data were rejected offline whenever the standard deviation within a 200 ms gliding window exceeded 80 µV at EOG electrodes or 50 µV at any other electrode.
*The CDSs were manually curated in the MaGe system for the elimination of artifacts.
The detector readings were filtered by using the discrete cosine transform for noise suppression and elimination of artifacts due to movement or respiration.
From 21 trials for each condition, after the elimination of artifacts, from 9 to 21 trials for memory tasks (mean for all subjects = 15.43, SD = 4.39) and from 12 to 18 trials for reasoning tasks (mean for all subjects = 14.14, SD = 1.95) were left for analysis.
Visual inspection guided elimination of remaining artifacts (e.g., drifts or movement artifacts).
