Visual grading regression: analysing data from visual grading experiments with regression models.
For visual grading experiments, which are an easy and increasingly popular way of studying image quality, hitherto used data analysis methods are often inadequate. Visual grading analysis makes assumptions that are not statistically appropriate for ordinal data, and visual grading characteristic curves are difficult to apply in more complex experimental designs. The approach proposed in this pa...
متن کاملQuantifying the potential for dose reduction with visual grading regression.
Objectives To propose a method to study the effect of exposure settings on image quality and to estimate the potential for dose reduction when introducing dose-reducing measures. Methods Using the framework of visual grading regression (VGR), a log(mAs) term is included in the ordinal logistic regression equation, so that the effect of reducing the dose can be quantitatively related to the eff...
متن کاملRegression models for analyzing radiological visual grading studies – an empirical comparison
BACKGROUND For optimizing and evaluating image quality in medical imaging, one can use visual grading experiments, where observers rate some aspect of image quality on an ordinal scale. To analyze the grading data, several regression methods are available, and this study aimed at empirically comparing such techniques, in particular when including random effects in the models, which is appropria...
متن کاملRegression Testing for Visual Models
In this paper, we present a set of Eclipse plug-ins which adapts the idea of regression testing for the area of visual modelling in software engineering: Expected properties of models in languages such as UML, BPMN, etc. are stored together with the model (comparable with test cases added to software). With each change of the model, these properties can be checked. The solution should work with...
متن کاملVisual grading characteristics and ordinal regression analysis during optimisation of CT head examinations
OBJECTIVES To evaluate visual grading characteristics (VGC) and ordinal regression analysis during head CT optimisation as a potential alternative to visual grading assessment (VGA), traditionally employed to score anatomical visualisation. METHODS Patient images (n = 66) were obtained using current and optimised imaging protocols from two CT suites: a 16-slice scanner at the national Maltese...
