Thomas Grisell letter to Thomas Rotch, 2nd mo 19th 1823
No full textThomas Grisell's letter reached the Rotch household several months before the unexpected death of Thomas Rotch in August, 1823. This is the last letter of the series and presumably the author learned of his friend's death before another letter was penned. 7.95" x 10" (20.2 by 25.5 cm
Feature Extraction for Visual Analysis of DW-MRI Data
No full textDiffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DW-MRI) is a recentmodality to investigate the major neuronal pathways of the humanbrain. However, the rich DW-MRI datasets cannot be interpreted withoutproper preprocessing. In order to achieve understandablevisualizations, this dissertation reduces the complex data to relevantfeatures.<br>The first part is inspired by topological features in flow data. Novelfeatures reconstruct fuzzy fiber bundle geometry from probabilistictractography results. The topological properties of existing featuresthat extract the skeleton of white matter tracts are clarified, andthe core of regions with planar diffusion is visualized.<br>The second part builds on methods from computer vision. Relevantboundaries in the data are identified via regularized eigenvaluederivatives, and boundary information is used to segment anisotropyisosurfaces into meaningful regions. A higher-order structure tensoris shown to be an accurate descriptor of local structure in diffusiondata.<br>The third part is concerned with fiber tracking. Streamlinevisualizations are improved by adding features from structural MRI ina way that emphasizes the relation between the two types of data, andthe accuracy of streamlines in high angular resolution data isincreased by modeling the estimation of crossing fiber bundles as alow-rank tensor approximation problem.EG Graphics Dissertation Onlin

Feature Extraction for DW-MRI Visualization: The State of the Art and Beyond
Full text linkBy measuring the anisotropic self-diffusion rates of water, Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DW-MRI) provides a unique noninvasive probe of fibrous tissue. In particular, it has been explored widely for imaging nerve fiber tracts in the human brain. Geometric features provide a quick visual overview of the complex datasets that arise from DW-MRI. At the same time, they build a bridge towards quantitative analysis, by extracting explicit representations of structures in the data that are relevant to specific research questions. Therefore, features in DWMRI data are an active research topic not only within scientific visualization, but have received considerable interest from the medical image analysis, neuroimaging, and computer vision communities. It is the goal of this paper to survey contributions from all these fields, concentrating
on streamline clustering, edge detection and segmentation, topological methods, and extraction of anisotropy creases. We point out interrelations between these topics and make suggestions for future research

Failed Censures: Ecclesiastical Regulation of Women’s Clothing in Late Medieval Italy
No full textChurchmen in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries tried to regulate the costume of Italian women. These efforts failed, and regulation was largely left thereafter to civic authorities.The published version was published as Chapter 3 in Medieval Clothing and Textiles 5Izbicki, Thomas M.

Western medieval legal manuscripts in the collections of the University of Pennsylvania
No full textWestern legal manuscripts of the Middle Ages in North American collections are among the least known to scholars. The University of Pennsylvania has a rich collection of these texts, several of which were in the collection of the historian Henry Charles Lea. Included are works of civil law and canon law, as well as collections of papal letters and guides to pastoral care. The descriptions of most of these manuscripts in the catalog of Norman P. Zacour and Rudolf Hirsch are perfunctory, sometimes erring or omitting valuable information. Other manuscripts were added in recent years in the Lawrence J. Schoenberg Collection. Much of this material is being added to the Franklin online catalog of the University’s libraries, but researchers frequently do not search these digital resources. This article provides more complete guidance to the University’s medieval legal manuscripts than any of the existing catalogs offers, whether in print or online. It also provides updated bibliographic information in print or online. Every manuscript has been examined by the author in situ. Among the important works represented in the collection is the Panormia (a work of canon law often attributed to Ivo of Chartres). Authors present include the curialist Thomas of Capua, canonists Petrus de Braco, William of Pagula, Bernardus Raimundi, Adam of Aldersbach, Raymond of Peñafort, and civil lawyers Baldus de Ubaldis, and Bartolus de Saxoferrato. Three of these manuscripts were owned in the past by Sir Thomas Phillipps
Forbidden Colors in the Regulation of Clerical Dress from the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) to the Time of Nicholas of Cusa (d. 1464)
No full textMedieval canon law attempted to distinguish clergy from the laity by restricting their dress choices. The article focuses on prohibition of wearing red or green on the street. Both colors were identified with the nobility.The published version was published as Chapter 7 in Medieval Clothing and Textiles 1Izbicki, Thomas M.

Thomas Crutchfield account book, 1848-1861
No full textA book containing business accounts, including details about travel expenses and the purchase and sale of lumber as well as other goods and services. The author also catalogs personal spending, the dates and pricing of properties offered for rent, and the purchase and leasing of enslaved people. Many entries are consistent with the business activities of Thomas Crutchfield Sr., who died in 1850. Someone continued to make entries in the book for activities dated up to 1861
