Point Set Denoising Using Bootstrap-Based Radial Basis Function.

ABSTRACT: This paper examines the application of a bootstrap test error estimation of radial basis functions, specifically thin-plate spline fitting, in surface smoothing. The presence of noisy data is a common issue of the point set model that is generated from 3D scanning devices, and hence, point set denoising is one of the main concerns in point set modelling. Bootstrap test error estimation, which is applied when searching for the smoothing parameters of radial basis functions, is revisited. The main contribution of this paper is a smoothing algorithm that relies on a bootstrap-based radial basis function. The proposed method incorporates a k-nearest neighbour search and then projects the point set to the approximated thin-plate spline surface. Therefore, the denoising process is achieved, and the features are well preserved. A comparison of the proposed method with other smoothing methods is also carried out in this study.

Automatic deformable surface registration for medical applications by radial basis function-based robust point-matching.

Project description:Deformable surface mesh registration is a useful technique for various medical applications, such as intra-operative treatment guidance and intra- or inter-patient study. In this paper, we propose an automatic deformable mesh registration technique. The proposed method iteratively deforms a source mesh to a target mesh without manual feature extraction. Each iteration of the registration consists of two steps, automatic correspondence finding using robust point-matching (RPM) and local deformation using a radial basis function (RBF). The proposed RBF-based RPM algorithm solves the interlocking problems of correspondence and deformation using a deterministic annealing framework with fuzzy correspondence and RBF interpolation. Simulation tests showed promising results, with the average deviations decreasing by factors of 21.2 and 11.9, respectively. In the human model test, the average deviation decreased from 1.72±1.88mm to 0.57±0.66mm. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method by presenting some medical applications.

Selecting effective siRNA sequences by using radial basis function network and decision tree learning.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough short interfering RNA (siRNA) has been widely used for studying gene functions in mammalian cells, its gene silencing efficacy varies markedly and there are only a few consistencies among the recently reported design rules/guidelines for selecting siRNA sequences effective for mammalian genes. Another shortcoming of the previously reported methods is that they cannot estimate the probability that a candidate sequence will silence the target gene.ResultsWe propose two prediction methods for selecting effective siRNA target sequences from many possible candidate sequences, one based on the supervised learning of a radial basis function (RBF) network and other based on decision tree learning. They are quite different from the previous score-based siRNA design techniques and can predict the probability that a candidate siRNA sequence will be effective. The proposed methods were evaluated by applying them to recently reported effective and ineffective siRNA sequences for various genes (15 genes, 196 siRNA sequences). We also propose the combined prediction method of the RBF network and decision tree learning. As the average prediction probabilities of gene silencing for the effective and ineffective siRNA sequences of the reported genes by the proposed three methods were respectively 65% and 32%, 56.6% and 38.1%, and 68.5% and 28.1%, the methods imply high estimation accuracy for selecting candidate siRNA sequences.ConclusionNew prediction methods were presented for selecting effective siRNA sequences. As the proposed methods indicated high estimation accuracy for selecting candidate siRNA sequences, they would be useful for many other genes.

Prediction of suicidal ideation among Chinese college students based on radial basis function neural network.

Project description:BackgroundSuicide is one of the leading causes of death for college students. The predictors of suicidal ideation among college students are inconsistent and few studies have systematically investigated psychological symptoms of college students to predict suicide. Therefore, this study aims to develop a suicidal ideation prediction model and explore important predictors of suicidal ideation among college students in China.MethodsWe recruited 1,500 college students of Sichuan University and followed up for 4 years. Demographic information, behavioral and psychological information of the participants were collected using computer-based questionnaires. The Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) method was used to develop three suicidal ideation risk prediction models and to identify important predictive factors for suicidal ideation among college students.ResultsThe incidence of suicidal ideation among college students in the last 12 months ranged from 3.00 to 4.07%. The prediction accuracies of all the three models were over 91.7%. The area under curve scores were up to 0.96. Previous suicidal ideation and poor subjective sleep quality were the most robust predictors. Poor self-rated mental health has also been identified to be an important predictor. Paranoid symptom, internet addiction, poor self-rated physical health, poor self-rated overall health, emotional abuse, low average annual household income per person and heavy study pressure were potential predictors for suicidal ideation.ConclusionsThe study suggested that the RBFNN method was accurate in predicting suicidal ideation. And students who have ever had previous suicidal ideation and poor sleep quality should be paid consistent attention to.

Group-wise Point-set registration using a novel CDF-based Havrda-Charvat Divergence.

Project description:This paper presents a novel and robust technique for group-wise registration of point sets with unknown correspondence. We begin by defining a Havrda-Charvát (HC) entropy valid for cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) which we dub the HC Cumulative Residual Entropy (HC-CRE). Based on this definition, we propose a new measure called the CDF-HC divergence which is used to quantify the dis-similarity between CDFs estimated from each point-set in the given population of point sets. This CDF-HC divergence generalizes the CDF based Jensen-Shannon (CDF-JS) divergence introduced earlier in the literature, but is much simpler in implementation and computationally more efficient.A closed-form formula for the analytic gradient of the cost function with respect to the non-rigid registration parameters has been derived, which is conducive for efficient quasi-Newton optimization. Our CDF-HC algorithm is especially useful for unbiased point-set atlas construction and can do so without the need to establish correspondences. Mathematical analysis and experimental results indicate that this CDF-HC registration algorithm outperforms the previous group-wise point-set registration algorithms in terms of efficiency, accuracy and robustness.

Image registration using radial basis functions with adaptive radius.

Project description:Deformable registration of medical images often requires initial rigid alignment. Because of variations in the articulation of bony structures, rigid alignment can capture only limited regions of the image. We propose a method that allows us to compensate for misalignment of mobile parts, which leads to improved accuracy of deformable registration. The method is based on matching landmarks using radial basis functions (RBF) with adaptive radius.Based on the assumption that the compactly positioned landmarks likely delineate an anatomic structure whose position needs to be corrected, the algorithm incorporates unsupervised clustering of landmarks based on their positions within the reference image. It calculates an appropriate RBF radius based on the set of pairwise distances between landmarks within the cluster. The algorithm distinguishes between clusters of different size and between clusters of spherical and elongated shape, and assigns the optimal RBF radius for each cluster in order to restrict the deformation field to the closest vicinity of the structure of interest.Experiments with synthetic images demonstrate sensitivity of registration results to the choice of the radius of RBF support. We have statistically validated the methods on a large set of pulmonary landmarks. We also tested the method on medical use cases that show that it is potentially advantageous for initial registration of images with large spatial dislocations.The results of registration of CT images demonstrate that an automated selection of the RBF radius simplifies the registration routine and improves the registration quality. The selection is based on two criteria of preserving diffeomorphism of deformation and localization of the deformation within a desired area of the image.

Modeling and optimizing in vitro percentage and speed callus induction of carrot via Multilayer Perceptron-Single point discrete GA and radial basis function.

Project description:BackgroundCallus induction is the first step in optimizing plant regeneration. Fit embryogenesis and shooting rely on callus induction. In addition, using artificial intelligence models in combination with an algorithm can be helpful in the optimization of in vitro culture. The present study aimed to evaluate the percentage and speed of callus induction optimization in carrot with a Multilayer Perceptron-Single point discrete genetic algorithm (GA).Materials and methodsIn this study, the outputs included callus induction percentage and speed, while inputs were different types and concentrations of plant growth regulator (0. 5, 0.2 mg/l 2,4-D, 0.3, 0.2, 0.5 mg/l BAP, 1, 0.2 mg/l Kin, and 2 mg/l NAA), different explants (shoot, root, leaf, and nodal), a different concentration compound of MS medium (1 × MS, 4× MS, and 8× MS) and time of sampling. The data were obtained in the laboratory, and multilayer perceptron (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF), two well-known ANNs, were employed to model. Then, GA was used for optimization, and sensitivity analysis was performed to indicate the inputs' importance.ResultsThe results showed that MLP had better prediction efficiency than RBF. Based on the results, R2 in training and testing data was 95 and 95% for the percentage of callus induction, while it was 94 and 95% for the speed of callus induction, respectively. In addition, a concentration compound of MS had high sensitivity, while times of sampling had low sensitivity. Based on the MLP-Single point discrete GA, the best results were obtained for shoot explants, 1× MS media, and 0.5 mg/l 2, 4-D + 0.5 mg/l BAP. Further, a non-significant difference was observed between the test result and predicted MLP.ConclusionsGenerally, MLP-Single point discrete GA is considered a potent tool for predicting treatment and fit model results used in plant tissue culture and selecting the best medium for callus induction.

Noncontrast MRI in assessing venous reflux of legs using QFlow analysis and radial basis function neural network technique.

Project description:Since venous reflux is difficult to quantify, triggered angiography non-contrast-enhanced (TRANCE)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a novel tool for objectively evaluating venous diseases in the lower extremities without using contrast media. This study included 26 pre-intervention patients with superficial venous reflux in the lower extremities and 15 healthy volunteers. The quantitative flow (QFlow) analyzed the phase shift information from the pixels within the region of interest from MRI. The fast and simple radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) learning model is constructed by determining the parameters of the radial basis function and the weights of the neural network. The input parameters were the variables generated through QFlow, while the output variables were morbid limbs with venous reflux and normal limb classification. The stroke volume, forward flow volume, absolute stroke volume, mean flux, stroke distance, and mean velocity of greater saphenous veins from QFlow analysis could be used to discriminate the morbid limbs of pre-intervention patients and normal limbs of healthy controls. The neural network successfully classified the morbid and normal limbs with an accuracy of 90.24% in the training stage. The classification of venous reflux using the RBFNN model may assist physicians in clinical settings.

Comparative modelling of crack propagation in elastic-plastic materials using the meshfree local radial basis point interpolation method and eXtended finite-element method.

Project description:The modelling and understanding of crack propagation for elastic-plastic materials is critical in various engineering applications, such as safety analysis of concrete structures and stability analysis of rock slopes. In this paper, the local radial basis point interpolation method (LRPIM) combined with elastic-plastic theory and fracture mechanics is employed to analyse crack propagation in elastic-plastic materials. Crack propagation in elastic-plastic materials is compared using the LRPIM and eXtended finite-element method (XFEM). The comparative investigation indicates that: (i) the LRPIM results are close to the model test results, which indicates that it is feasible for analysing the crack growth of elastic-plastic materials; (ii) compared with the LRPIM, the XFEM results are closer to the experimental results, showing that the XFEM has higher accuracy and computational efficiency; and (iii) compared with the XFEM, when the LRPIM method is used to analyse crack propagation, the propagation path is not smooth enough, which can be explained as the crack tip stress and strain not being accurate enough and still needing further improvement.

Predicting technological innovation in new energy vehicles based on an improved radial basis function neural network for policy synergy.

Project description:Policy synergy is necessary to promote technological innovation and sustainable industrial development. A radial basis function (RBF) neural network model with an automatic coding machine and fractional momentum was proposed for the prediction of technological innovation. Policy keywords for China's new energy vehicle policies issued over the years were quantified by the use of an Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model. The training of the neural network model was completed by using policy keywords, synergy was measured as the input layer, and the number of synchronous patent applications was measured as the output layer. The predictive efficacies of the traditional neural network model and the improved neural network model were compared again to verify the applicability and accuracy of the improved neural network. Finally, the influence of the degree of synergy on technological innovation was revealed by changing the intensity of policy measures. This study provides a basis for the relevant departments to formulate industrial policies and improve innovation performance by enterprises.

An improved point cloud denoising method in adverse weather conditions based on PP-LiteSeg network.

Project description:Reliable point cloud data (PCD) generated by LiDAR are crucial to perceiving surroundings when autonomous driving systems are a concern. However, adverse weather conditions can impact the detection range of LiDAR, resulting in a significant amount of noisy data that substantially deteriorates the quality of PCD. Point cloud denoising algorithms used for challenging weather conditions suffer from poor accuracy and slow inferences. The manuscript proposes a Series Attention Fusion Denoised Network (SAFDN) based on a semantic segmentation model in real-time, called PP-LiteSeg. The proposed approach provides two key components to the model. The insufficient feature extraction issue in the general-purpose segmentation models is first addressed when dealing with objects with more noise, so the WeatherBlock module is introduced to replace the original layer used for feature extraction. Hence, this module employs dilated convolutions to enhance the receptive field and extract multi-scale features by combining various convolutional kernels. The Series Attention Fusion Module (SAFM) is presented as the second component of the model to tackle the problem of low segmentation accuracy in rainy and foggy weather conditions. The SAFM sequentially applies channel and spatial attention mechanisms to enhance the model's sensitivity to crucial features. Furthermore, weighted feature fusion is employed to enhance the model's efficiency in integrating low-level and high-level feature information configurations. Experimental evaluations were conducted on the publicly available DENSE dataset. The results demonstrate that the improved model achieved an 11.1% increase in denoising accuracy measured by MIOU and an inference speed of 205.06 FPS when compared to the PP-LiteSeg model. As a result, the noise recognition accuracy and denoising capability in real-time are enhanced.
