Automatic Statistical Identification of Neuroanatomical Abnormalities between Different Populations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a completely automatic method to identify abnormal anatomical configurations of the brain resulting from various pathologies. The statistical framework developed here is applied to identify regions that significant differ from normal anatomy in two groups of patients, namely subjects who subsequently converted to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and subjects with mild AD. The regions identified are consistent with post-mortem pathological findings in AD.

Managed Pressure Drilling Using Integrated Process Control
Control of wellbore pressure during drilling operations has always been important in the oil industry as this can prevent the possibility of well blowout. The present research employs a combination of automatic process control and statistical process control for the first time for the identification, monitoring, and control of both random and special causes in drilling operations. To this end, ...
متن کاملPhylogeny of gazelles in some islands of Iran based on mtDNA sequences: Species identification and implications for conservation
Different species of gazelles are among the most endangered mammals on the Asian steppes and occur in the central, southern and northwestern regions of Iran. The previous conservation efforts in this region have been incomplete due to confusion about the phylogenetic relationship among various populations. So that, different conservation programs such as ex-situ breeding and transfer of captive...
متن کاملIdentification of a sex-linked SCAR marker for Plecoglossus altivelis and its application for identifying gender in cultivated and wild populations
Ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis), one kinds of valuable cultured fish species, show almost no morphological difference between male and female until sexual maturity. Here, we report the identification of sex-linked markers for the ayu, based on Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) generated from cultured fish (15 males and 15 females) by using 63 different primer combinations. Genomic frag...
متن کاملUse of neuroanatomical pattern classification to identify subjects in at-risk mental states of psychosis and predict disease transition.
CONTEXT Identification of individuals at high risk of developing psychosis has relied on prodromal symptomatology. Recently, machine learning algorithms have been successfully used for magnetic resonance imaging-based diagnostic classification of neuropsychiatric patient populations. OBJECTIVE To determine whether multivariate neuroanatomical pattern classification facilitates identification ...
متن کاملText - Based Automatic Language Identification
— We present a statistical approach to text-based automatic language identification that focuses on discrimination between as opposed to representation of different language models. The system is evaluated on a text corpus containing six African and six European languages.
