But Russia is no longer desperate for a hero, as it was after the 1998 economic collapse, and Mr. Putin no longer offers a robust contrast to a sickly President Boris N. Yeltsin.
The edge structure is first detected by a robust one-way design model, and then localized by a robust contrast test.
Like other sauropods, its limbs were robust, contrasting with the extremely lightweight construction of the rest of the skeleton.
Inorganic iodine readily penetrates all soft tissues tested so far, and it has proven to be versatile and robust contrast stain.
However, FD platforms are limited in their application in small animal imaging due to the small volumes encountered in murine models which necessitates the modulation of the source in the GHz range for robust contrast in the phase function [ 12].
We directly tested for this possibility in our data by separately localizing left Heschl's gyrus in each subject with the same contrast used to define the sensorimotor frontoparietal network, [Plan & Execute > 2*Preview] (recall that auditory cues initiate the onset of the Plan and Execute phases of the trial and so this was a robust contrast for localizing primary auditory cortex).

The overall effect is robust, and contrasts with the delicacy of the pinnacled choir stalls, the tracery of the windows and the rich decoration of the vault which was carried out by the ecclesiastical designers, Clayton and Bell.
Hence, the proposed method is robust against contrast adjustment.
Threshold selection is more robust if contrast enhancement and denoising algorithms, like bilateral filter and non-local means, are applied.
