Iterative Approach for Automatic Beam Angle Selection in Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy Planning
Introduction: Beam-angle optimization (BAO) is a computationally intensive problem for a number of reasons. First, the search space of the solutions is huge, requiring enumeration of all possible beam orientation combinations. For example, when choosing 4 angles out of 36 candidate beam angles, C36 = 58905 possible combinations exist. Second, any change in a beam 4 config...

Introduction: An accurate and fast radiation dose calculation is essential for successful radiation radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to implement a new graphic processing unit (GPU) based radiation therapy treatment planning for accurate and fast dose calculation in radiotherapy centers. Materials and Methods: A program was written for parallel runnin...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Surrogate Based Method for Global Optimization
We evaluate the performance of a numerical method for global optimization of expensive functions. The method is using a response surface to guide the search for the global optimum. This metamodel could be based on radial basis functions, kriging, or a combination of different models. We discuss how to set the cyclic parameters of the optimization method to get a balance between local and global...

متن کاملA surrogate method for density-based global sensitivity analysis
This paper describes an accurate and computationally efficient surrogate method, known as the polynomial dimensional decomposition (PDD) method, for estimating a general class of density-based fsensitivity indices. Unlike the variance-based Sobol index, the f-sensitivity index is applicable to random input following dependent as well as independent probability distributions. The proposed method...
