Two non-parametric methods for derivation of constraints from radiotherapy dose-histogram data.
Dose constraints based on histograms provide a convenient and widely-used method for informing and guiding radiotherapy treatment planning. Methods of derivation of such constraints are often poorly described. Two non-parametric methods for derivation of constraints are described and investigated in the context of determination of dose-specific cut-points-values of the free parameter (e.g., per...
متن کاملRegression Modeling for Spherical Data via Non-parametric and Least Square Methods
Introduction Statistical analysis of the data on the Earth's surface was a favorite subject among many researchers. Such data can be related to animal's migration from a region to another position. Then, statistical modeling of their paths helps biological researchers to predict their movements and estimate the areas that are most likely to constitute the presence of the animals. From a geome...
متن کاملParametric v non-parametric methods for data analysis.
Continuous data arise in most areas of medicine. Familiar clinical examples include blood pressure, ejection fraction, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), serum cholesterol, and anthropometric measurements. Methods for analysing continuous data fall into two classes, distinguished by whether or not they make assumptions about the distribution of the data. Theoretical distributions are ...
متن کاملVery High Resolution Parametric and Non- Parametric Sartomography Methods for Monitoring Urban Areas Structures
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is the only way to evaluate deformation of the Earth’s surface from space on the order of centimeters and millimeters due to its coherent nature and short wavelengths. Hence, by this means the long term risk monitoring and security are performed as precisely as possible. Traditional SAR imaging delivers a projection of the 3-D object to the two dimensional (2-D) a...
متن کاملNon-parametric Methods for Comparing Two Survival Distributions
Survival curves for each group gives comparison at some arbitrary point(s) but it does not provide a comparison of the total survival experience of two groups. So some Non-parametric methods like log rank test, Cox-Mantel test are popular methods used for comparing the survival distribution and also these methods takes whole follow-up period. In this paper non-parametric methods are used for da...
