Sheikh et al. [27, 28] also developed methods, such as IFC and VIF, based on natural scene statistics (NSS) to introduce the concept of information fidelity.
Besides traditional, already well developed methods – such as first order perturbation theory or Monte Carlo sampling – Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE) has been given a growing emphasis in recent years due to its simple application and good performance.
In order to inhibit the DC circulating current, there are some developed methods such as voltage and current double close-loop control, three-state hysteresis control, filter circuit elimination and regulation of the reference sine wave DC component (Chen et al. 2004; He and Xu 2012; He and Zhang 2008).
Modern psychometrics [44] [45] offers statistically and theoretically well developed methods, such as (genetically informed) latent factor models and Item Response Theory, for addressing the phenotypic measurement issues discussed here, and as such has the potential to contribute considerably to the success of genetic studies.
Movement of the target volume can be reduced using newly developed methods such as respiratory gating, active breathing control devices or deep inspiration breath hold.
The second group of analyses focuses on ecologic studies that associate hazard with health outcomes using recently developed methods such as GIS spatial analysis, hierarchical models, and Bayesian methods.
By establishing the benefits of He MRI functional lung avoidance and validating it against less developed methods such as Xe and H Fourier Decomposition MRI, these latter methods will allow for widespread implementation of functional lung avoidance radiotherapy.
These methods include early methods such as Lee filter [ 3], Frost filter [ 4], Kuan filter [ 5], and recently developed methods such as adaptive filters [ 6, 7], wavelet transform [ 8- 11], bilateral filters [ 12], nonlocal-means [ 13] and anisotropic diffusion filters [ 14- 18], etc.
By developing methods such as the PhPP to explore in silico the metabolic capabilities of microorganisms, we can generate new hypotheses as to how these organisms operate, and, more importantly, we can gain insight into the impact of individual cellular components on the organism as a whole.
Much effort has been devoted to develop methods to avoid such side effects as well as to increase its in vivo half-life.
