TL;DR: A fully automated processing pipeline for the structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the developing neonatal brain is proposed, which has been specifically designed to address considerable differences between adult and neonatal brains, as imaged using MRI.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A new regularisation penalty, derived from physically relevant equations of strain (deformation) energy, is proposed and implemented and it is demonstrated that its use leads to improved and more robust alignment of multimodal imaging data.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The segmentation method is extended to detect cortical sulci and provide a detailed delineation of the cortical ribbon to build a 4-dimensional spatio-temporal structural atlas of the brain for 82 cortical and subcortical structures throughout this developmental period.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This work automatically quantify patterns of normal cortical folding in the developing fetus from in utero MR images over a wide gestational age (GA) range and supports visual observations that, after a slow initial start, cortical folding increases rapidly between 25 and 30weeks and subsequently slows near birth.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The method is based on a spherical registration approach: Multimodal Surface Matching (MSM), using cortical folding for driving the alignment and generated templates capture expected patterns of cortical development including an increase in gyrification as well as a increase in thickness and T1w/T2w myelination with increasing age.

TL;DR: The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or her own research.
Abstract: I have developed "tennis elbow" from lugging this book around the past four weeks, but it is worth the pain, the effort, and the aspirin. It is also worth the (relatively speaking) bargain price. Including appendixes, this book contains 894 pages of text. The entire panorama of the neural sciences is surveyed and examined, and it is comprehensive in its scope, from genomes to social behaviors. The editors explicitly state that the book is designed as "an introductory text for students of biology, behavior, and medicine," but it is hard to imagine any audience, interested in any fragment of neuroscience at any level of sophistication, that would not enjoy this book. The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or

Abstract: Thank you for downloading linear and nonlinear programming. As you may know, people have search numerous times for their favorite novels like this linear and nonlinear programming, but end up in malicious downloads. Rather than reading a good book with a cup of tea in the afternoon, instead they juggled with some infectious bugs inside their desktop computer. linear and nonlinear programming is available in our book collection an online access to it is set as public so you can download it instantly. Our digital library spans in multiple locations, allowing you to get the most less latency time to download any of our books like this one. Kindly say, the linear and nonlinear programming is universally compatible with any devices to read.

TL;DR: An auto‐context version of the VoxResNet is proposed by combining the low‐level image appearance features, implicit shape information, and high‐level context together for further improving the segmentation performance, and achieved the best performance in the 2013 MICCAI MRBrainS challenge.

TL;DR: This paper presents a method for the automatic segmentation of MR brain images into a number of tissue classes using a convolutional neural network, and demonstrates its robustness to differences in age and acquisition protocol.
Abstract: Automatic segmentation in MR brain images is important for quantitative analysis in large-scale studies with images acquired at all ages. This paper presents a method for the automatic segmentation of MR brain images into a number of tissue classes using a convolutional neural network. To ensure that the method obtains accurate segmentation details as well as spatial consistency, the network uses multiple patch sizes and multiple convolution kernel sizes to acquire multi-scale information about each voxel. The method is not dependent on explicit features, but learns to recognise the information that is important for the classification based on training data. The method requires a single anatomical MR image only. The segmentation method is applied to five different data sets: coronal $ {\rm T}_{2}$ -weighted images of preterm infants acquired at 30 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA) and 40 weeks PMA, axial $ {\rm T}_{2}$ -weighted images of preterm infants acquired at 40 weeks PMA, axial $ {\rm T}_{1}$ -weighted images of ageing adults acquired at an average age of 70 years, and $ {\rm T}_{1}$ -weighted images of young adults acquired at an average age of 23 years. The method obtained the following average Dice coefficients over all segmented tissue classes for each data set, respectively: 0.87, 0.82, 0.84, 0.86, and 0.91. The results demonstrate that the method obtains accurate segmentations in all five sets, and hence demonstrates its robustness to differences in age and acquisition protocol.
