Cells In Silico (CIS): A biomedical simulation framework based on Markov random field
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents CIS, a biomedical simulation framework based on the markov random field (MRF). CIS is a discrete domain 2-D simulation framework emphasizing on the spatial interactions of biomedical entities. The probability model within the MRF framework facilitates the construction of more realistic models than deterministic differential equation approaches and cellular automata. The global phenomenon in CIS are dictated by the local conditional probabilities. In addition, multiscale MRF is potentially useful for the modelling of complex biomedical phenomenon in multiple spatial and time scales. The methodology and procedure of CIS for a biomedical simulation is presented using the scenario of tumor-induced hypoxia and angiogenesis as an example. The goal of this research is to unveil the complex appearances of biomedical phenomenon using mathematical models, thus enhancing our understanding on the secrets of life.

I-1: Screening of Subfertile Men for Testicularlar Carcinoma In Situ by An Automated Image Analysis-Based Cytological Test of The Ejaculate
Background: Testicular cancer (TC) is usually diagnosed after manifestation of an overt tumour. Tumour formation is preceded by a pre-invasive and asymptomatic stage, carcinoma in situ (CIS) testis, except for very rare subtypes. The CIS cells are located within seminiferous tubules but can be exfoliated and detected in ejaculates with specific CIS markers. Materials and Methods: We have built ...
متن کاملCluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field
Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
متن کاملA Design Methodology for Reliable MRF-Based Logic Gates
Probabilistic-based methods have been used for designing noise tolerant circuits recently. In these methods, however, there is not any reliability mechanism that is essential for nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In this paper, we propose a novel method for designing reliable probabilistic-based logic gates. The advantage of the proposed method in comparison with previous probabilistic-based met...
متن کاملA Minimal-Cost Inherent-Feedback Approach for Low-Power MRF-Based Logic Gates
The Markov random field (MRF) theory has been accepted as a highly effective framework for designing noise-tolerant nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In MRF-based design, proper feedback lines are used to control noise and keep the circuits in their valid states. However, this methodology has encountered two major problems that have limited the application of highly noise immune MRF-based circui...
متن کاملKernel Based Surface Reconstruction in a Side-scan Sonar Simulation Framework
In this paper we present an existing framework for surface reconstruction from side-scan data based on a forward simulation stage and an estimation stage which considers vehicular ego-motion. It is discussed how an extension of the method using a kernelized surface representation could look like and discuss approaches from literature like a Bayesian formulation in a Markov Random Field structure.
