Get PDFData used in the paper: "Data-driven image mechanics (D2IM): a deep learning approach to predict displacement and strain fields from undeformed X-ray tomography images - Evaluation of bone mechanics"by Peter Soar, Marco Palanca, Enrico Dall'Ara and Gianluca Tozzisubmitted to publication in Extreme Mechanical Letters, 2024There are 2 parts of this directory:The main dataset 'D2IM_Data':- 'input' comprises slices of XTC scans of porcine vertebra. There is a subfolder 'Removed' containing slices that were manually removed from the dataset due to not containing enough bone. The original 3D scans of the images can be found at: https://orda.shef.ac.uk/articles/dataset/Data_for_paper_MicroFE_models_of_porcine_vertebrae_with_induced_bone_focal_lesions_validation_of_predicted_displacements_with_Digital_Volume_Correlation_/16732441/1- 'mask' is another input that was generated from these scan slices. ' 'Target' contains three subfolders of the displacements ('U','V','W'), used as the target/ground truth. These fields were obtained using the DIC/DVC software SPAM.'Clinical' folder contains a few examples used for testing the sensitivity of the D2IM model to lower resolution input. Clinical images were collected at the CT Scan Department, Northern General Hospital, Sheffield.The 'Test Predictions' directory has three archives, each containing images showing the predicted displacements and displacement errors for the full set of test data. Each archive corresponds to the named displacement component u, v or w.A copy of the code for the D2IM prototype model can be found on GitHub at: https://github.com/PeterSoar/D2IM_PrototypeFor any questions the reader is encouraged to contact Dr Peter Soar ([email protected]).</p
Data-driven image mechanics (D2IM): a deep learning approach to predict displacement and strain fields from undeformed X-ray tomography images – Evaluation of bone mechanics
Get PDFThe recent advent of deep learning (DL) has enabled data-driven models to pave the way for the full exploitation of rich image datasets from which physics can be learnt. Here we propose a novel data-driven image mechanics (D2IM) approach that learns from digital volume correlation (DVC) displacement fields of vertebrae, predicting displacement and strain fields from undeformed X-ray computed tomography (XCT) images. D2IM successfully predicted the displacements in all directions, particularly in the cranio-caudal direction of the vertebra, where high correlation (R2=0.94) and generally minimal errors were obtained compared to the measured displacements. The predicted axial strain field in the cranio-caudal direction of the vertebra was also consistent in distribution with the measured one, displaying generally reduced errors in the regions within the vertebral body. The application of D2IM to lower resolution imaging in initial testing provides promising results indicating the future viability of integrating this technology into a clinical setting. This is the first study using experimental full-field measurements on bone structures from DVC to inform DL-based models such as D2IM, which represents a major contribution in the prediction of displacement and strain fields based only on the greyscale content of undeformed XCT images. In future, D2IM will incorporate a range of biological structures and loading scenarios for accurate prediction of physical fields, aiming at clinical translation for improved diagnostics
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
