From today’s perspective, a mathematical technique that lacks rigor or leads to paradoxes is a contradiction in terms. It must be expelled from mathematics, lest it discredit the profession, sow chaos, and put a large stain on the shining surface of eternal truth. This is precisely what the leading mathematicians of the most learned Catholic order, the Jesuits, said about the “method of indivis...

The social brain hypothesis, an explanation for the unusually large brains of primates, posits that the size of social group typical of a species is directly related to the volume of its neocortex. To test whether this hypothesis also applies at the within-species level, we applied the Cavalieri method of stereology in conjunction with point counting on magnetic resonance images to determine th...

In this paper, we take advantage of the reconstruction properties sampling Kantorovich (SK) algorithm to estimate volume human brain for quantification Alzheimer's biomarkers. At first, goodness reconstructions is evaluated, comparing it different interpolation methods by means Peak Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR) index; then stereological Cavalieri/Point-counting technique used infer volumetric data...

The AMSR-E sea ice standard level 3 products include sea ice concentration, sea ice temperature, and snow depth on sea ice. The AMSR-E standard sea ice concentration product is generated using the enhanced NASA Team (NT2) algorithm described by Markus and Cavalieri (2000), the snow depth is produced from the algorithm described by Markus and Cavalieri (1998) for both hemispheres, but excluding ...
