Using drinking data and pharmacokinetic modeling to calibrate transport model and blind deconvolution based data analysis software for transdermal alcohol biosensors by Zheng Dai, I.G. Rosen, Chuming Wang, Nancy Barnett, Susan E. Luczak

“…Nonlinear least squares with adjoint-based gradient computation are used to fit both models. Calibration results are compared with those obtained using BAC/BrAC from alcohol challenges and from standard, linear, metabolic absorption, and zero order kinetics-based elimination models, by considering peak BAC, time of peak, and area under the BAC curve. …”

Segmentation of Pulmonary Vascular Trees from Thoracic 3D CT Images by Hidenori Shikata, Geoffrey McLennan, Eric A. Hoffman, Milan Sonka

“…This paper describes an algorithm for extracting pulmonary vascular trees (arteries plus veins) from three-dimensional (3D) thoracic computed tomographic (CT) images. The algorithm integrates tube enhancement filter and traversal approaches which are based on eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a Hessian matrix to extract thin peripheral segments as well as thick vessels close to the lung hilum. …”
