This paper aims to better understand the physiological meaning of negative correlations in resting state functional connectivity MRI (r-fcMRI). The correlations between anatomy-based brain regions of 18 healthy humans were calculated and analyzed with and without a correction for global signal and with and without spatial smoothing. In addition, correlations between anatomy-based brain regions ...

Compressive sensing is an emerging research field that has applications in signal processing, error correction, medical imaging, seismology, and many more other areas. Compressive sensing has a wide range of applications that include error correction, imaging, radar and many more. We present a new algorithm (the Modified Orthogonal Matching) for signal reconstruction in compressive sensing. We ...

OBJECTIVE To compare the breathing effects on dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI between controlled aliasing in parallel imaging results in higher acceleration (CAIPIRINHA)-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE), radial VIBE with k-space-weighted image contrast view-sharing (radial-VIBE), and conventional VIBE (c-VIBE) sequences using a dedicated phantom experiment. MATERIALS...

The detailed analysis of measured interferograms generally requires phase correction. Phase-shift correction methods are commonly used and well documented for conventional Fourier-transform spectroscopy. However, measured interferograms can show additional phase errors, depending on the optical path difference and signal frequency, which we call phase distortion. In spatial heterodyne spectrosc...

In this paper a state-of-the-art FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) based high speed parallel signal processing system (SPS) for adaptive optics (AO) testbed with 1 kHz wavefront error (WFE) correction frequency is reported. The AO testbed consists of Shack-Hartmann sensor (SHS) and deformable mirror (DM), tip-tilt sensor (TTS), tip-tilt mirror (TTM) and an FPGA-based high performance SPS to ...

direct orthogonal signal correction(dosc) and savitzky-golay filters (sgf) were applied as preprocessing methods on the original and first derivative absorbance data. principle component regression (pcr), partial least squares (pls) and iterative target transformation factor analysis (ittfa), were used in spectrophotometric simultaneous determination of heavy divalent metal ions, lead, zinc,mer...

Forward Error Correction is an essential requirement for wireless communication systems with high bit error rates. Redundant Residue Number System codes are normally superior in parallel communication environments, such as sensor networks due to their weightless structure. Underlying error correction capability of redundant residue representation has led to the development of a new set of codin...

In digital communication system error correction codes are used when channel is noisy. An error correction code removes errors induced in communication and make possible error free transmission. By use of such error correction code we can send signal at lower transmit power as compared to un-coded system. Convolutional code corrects both type of errors random and burst and used in deep space an...

Detector response in sensors such as the Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) is typically modeled as a linear function of the incident radiance reaching the focal plane. Due to differences in gain and bias among the detectors, the resulting imagery can contain significant striping artifacts that must be removed. Given knowledge of the detector bias, such ‘destriping’ of the imagery can be achieved t...
