The use of two successive segmentations at different scales allowed us to adjust the segmentation parameters to the local structure of the landscape and of the cover.
We analyzed the efficacy of PET/CT parameters to predict local response of HNSCC treated by CRT with curative intent.
Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were made to assess the utility of PET/CT parameters to predict local response, with complete response (CR) as the gold standard.
Understanding these issues combined with these unique characteristics can eventually be used for parameters to customise local implementations of expert-based recommendations.
32 A limited number of recent studies have developed site-specific multivariate regression models using various combinations of time-lagged weather parameters to predict local dengue incidence and/or mosquito density in Australia, 21 Taiwan, 33 Singapore, 27, 34, 35 New Caledonia, 36 Mexico, 37, 38 Guadeloupe, 39 and Puerto Rico.
Mapping of orphaned reads to the mouse genome (mm9) was performed by bowtie2 with parameters set to local very sensitive alignment.
Tissue perfusion may be quantified also by further evaluating the replenishment kinetics of the volume of microbubbles after their destruction in the imaged slice (using high mechanical index US), obtaining quantitative parameters related to local tissue perfusion [ 15, 19].
Since our aim was to test the hypothesis of a positive threshold for radiation carcinogenesis and provide an alternative to the LNTH, we did not seek global minima of the mismatch Var for sigmoids but preferred fit parameters corresponding to local minima and apparent thresholds.
Questions such as scalability, sequential multistage optimization by automated exploration of model parameter space, the problem of equifinality, and parameter sensitivity to local conditions are explored.
The best trade-off between image sharpness and denoising is achieved by adapting the smoothing parameter h to local image features.
