A practical method for obtaining an index of lens density with an automated perimeter.

چکیده
Uncontrolled variables often limit meaningful assessment of visual sensitivity. Previously, we developed a procedure and apparatus for in vivo assessment of light absorption by the human lens. In the current study, we modified a widely used automated perimeter to include our procedure for obtaining an index of lens density. Nineteen individuals were tested on both the original apparatus and the modified perimeter. Results were comparable with a correlation of r = 0.92 (P less than 0.01). We conclude that employing the procedure on an automated perimeter is a practical method for obtaining an accurate lens density index.

Objective: In general, financial time series such as stock indexes have nonlinear, mutable and noisy behavior. Structural and statistical models and machine learning-based models are often unable to accurately predict series with such a behavior. Accordingly, the aim of the present study is to present a new hybrid model using the advantages of the GMDH method and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic A...
