Bayesian model selection using test statistics.
Jianhua Hu,Valen E. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: This work proposes a new approach towards Bayesian model selection that uses classical test statistics to compute Bayes factors between possible models and facilitates the selection of hyperparameter values through prior‐predictive simulation.
Book ChapterDOI
Analysis and Reconstruction of Medical Images Using Prior Information
TL;DR: A Bayesian model for medical image analysis that permits prior structural information to be incorporated into the estimation of image features and can be applied to a broad spectrum of images is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the count rate performance of modern gamma cameras
TL;DR: The CRP curves for three modern gamma camera models have been characterized, demonstrating unexpected behavior that necessitates the determination of both τ and maximum count rate to fully characterize the CRP curve.
Book ChapterDOI
A Hierarchical Feature Based Deformation Model Applied to 4D Cardiac SPECT Data
TL;DR: The addition of a contraction mechanism to the baseline model provides particularly convincing results in gated cardiac SPECT images and provides marked improvement in the quality of summary images for the time series.
