Quantitative Techniques in Volumetric Analysis

Volumetric Quantitative Analysis of Receptor Function

In neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, examination of the living brain by high-resolution positron emission tomography (PET), combined with the appropriate pharmacokinetic and physiological analyses, can provide valuable quantitative information of altered brain function. The primary objective of the thesis is accomplished by developing a volumetric process for the quantitative ...

Volumetric and Calorimetric Techniques

Analysis of Human Shape Variation Using Volumetric Techniques

Analyzing human shape variability is important for human system engineering and for animation applications where synthesizing realistic virtual humans is needed to re-create social human activities in historical and cultural context. In this paper, we present a new method for extracting main modes of variations of the human shape from a 3-D anthropometric database. Previous approaches rely on a...

Quantitative Techniques and Analysis of Multidimensional Matrices

The importance of quality is often recognised more by its absence at the end of a software project, than by its presence at the start of a new project. Quality cannot be added into a product after it has been developed, it should be built into it from the start. This paper investigates the application of metrics to measure duration, effort and quality, as related to software supporting the Matr...

Techniques of image analysis for quantitative immunohistochemistry.

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the usefulness of digital image analysis techniques to measure the amount and strength of immunohistochemical markers. The new method, based on the spatial visualization technique, was confronted with methods of colour sampling and grey scale thresholding. Examples of applications of the techniques for apoptosis and proliferation markers are also presented.
