26 Meyer, Miriah DawnDesign activity framework for visualization designAn important aspect in visualization design is the connection between what a designer does and the decisions the designer makes. Existing design process models, however, do not explicitly link back to models for visualization design decisions. We bridge this gap by introducing the design activity fr...2014-01-01
27 Gerig, GuidoDiffusion tensor imaging: application to the study of the developing brainObjective: To provide an overview of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and its application to the study of white matter in the developing brain, in both healthy and clinical samples. Method: The development of DTI and its application to brain imaging of white matter tracts is discussed. 48 studies usi...2007-01-01
28 Gerig, GuidoDiscordance of prenatal and neonatal brain development in twinsBackground: Discordance of birth weight has been observed in twin pairs, though little is known about prenatal and early neonatal discordance of head and brain size, and the role that zygosity and chorionicity play in discordances of early brain development in twins. Aims: To compare prenatal and ne...2009-01-01
29 Anderson, Erik WesleyDiscovering and visualizing patterns in EEG dataBrain activity data is often collected through the use of electroen-cephalography (EEG). In this data acquisition modality, the electric fields generated by neurons are measured at the scalp. Although this technology is capable of measuring activity from a group of neurons, recent efforts provide ev...2013-01-01
30 Gerig, GuidoDiscrimination analysis using Multi-object statistics of shape and poseA main focus of statistical shape analysis is the description of variability of a population of geometric objects. In this paper, we present work towards modeling the shape and pose variability of sets of multiple objects. Principal geodesic analysis (PGA) is the extension of the standard technique ...2007-01-01
31 Gerig, GuidoDTI quality control assessment via error estimation from monte carlo simulationsDiffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is currently the state of the art method for characterizing the microscopic tissue structure of white matter in normal or diseased brain in vivo. DTI is estimated from a series of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) volumes. DWIs suffer from a number of artifacts which ma...2013-01-01
32 Gerig, GuidoDTIPrep: quality control of diffusion-weighted imagesIn the last decade, diffusion MRI (dMRI) studies of the human and animal brain have been used to investigate a multitude of pathologies and drug-related effects in neuroscience research. Study after study identifies white matter (WM) degeneration as a crucial biomaker for all these diseases. The too...2014-01-01
33 Gerig, GuidoEarly postnatal development of corpus callosum and corticospinal white matter assessed with quantitative tractographyBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The early postnatal period is perhaps the most dynamic phase of white matter development. We hypothesized that the early postnatal development of the corpus callosum and corticospinal tracts could be studied in unsedated healthy neonates by using novel approaches to diffusion...2007-01-01
34 Gerig, GuidoEfficient probabilistic and geometric anatomical mapping using particle mesh approximation on GPUsDeformable image registration in the presence of considerable contrast differences and large size and shape changes presents significant research challenges. First, it requires a robust registration framework that does not depend on intensity measurements and can handle large nonlinear shape variati...2011-01-01
35 Rondina, Matthew ThomasEmerging evidence for platelets as immune and inflammatory effector cellsWhile traditionally recognized for their roles in hemostatic pathways, emerging evidence demonstrates that platelets have previously unrecognized, dynamic roles that span the immune continuum. These newly recognized platelet functions, including the secretion of immune mediators, interactions with e...2014-01-01
36 Gerig, GuidoEstimation of smooth growth trajectories with controlled acceleration from time series shape dataLongitudinal shape analysis often relies on the estimation of a realistic continuous growth scenario from data sparsely distributed in time. In this paper, we propose a new type of growth model para-meterized by acceleration, whereas standard methods typically control the velocity. This mimics the b...2011-01-01
37 Gerig, GuidoEvaluation of DTI property maps as basis of DTI atlas buildingCompared to region of interest based DTI analysis, voxel-based analysis gives higher degree of localization and avoids the procedure of manual delineation with the resulting intra and inter-rater variability. One of the major challenges in voxel-wise DTI analysis is to get high quality voxel-level c...2010-01-01
38 Gerig, GuidoFunctional connectivity MR imaging reveals cortical functional connectivity in the developing brainBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Unlike conventional functional MR imaging where external sensory/cognitive paradigms are needed to specifically activate different regions of the brain, resting functional connectivity MR imaging acquires images in the absence of cognitive demands (a resting condition) and de...2008-01-01
39 Gur, YanivGeneralized hardi invariants by method of tensor contractionWe propose a 3D object recognition technique to construct rotation invariant feature vectors for high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI). This method uses the spherical harmonics (SH) expansion and is based on generating rank-1 contravariant tensors using the SH coefficients, and contracti...2014-01-01
40 Gerig, GuidoGeodesic image regression with a sparse parameterization of diffeomorphismsImage regression allows for time-discrete imaging data to be modeled continuously, and is a crucial tool for conducting statistical analysis on longitudinal images. Geodesic models are particularly well suited for statistical analysis, as image evolution is fully characterized by a baseline image an...2013-01-01
41 Gerig, GuidoGeodesic regression of image and shape data for improved modeling of 4D trajectoriesA variety of regression schemes have been proposed on images or shapes, although available methods do not handle them jointly. In this paper, we present a framework for joint image and shape regression which incorporates images as well as anatomical shape information in a consistent manner. Evolutio...2014-01-01
42 Gerig, GuidoGeodesic shape regression in the framework of currentsShape regression is emerging as an important tool for the statistical analysis of time dependent shapes. In this paper, we develop a new generative model which describes shape change over time, by extending simple linear regression to the space of shapes represented as currents in the large deformat...2013-01-01
43 Gur, YanivGraph diffusion distance: a difference measure for weighted graphs based on the graph Laplacian exponential kernelWe propose a novel difference metric, called the graph diffusion distance (GDD), for quantifying the difference between two weighted graphs with the same number of vertices.

46 Macleod, Robert S.Identification and acute targeting of gaps in atrial ablation lesion sets using a real-time magnetic resonance imaging systemBackground-Radiofrequency ablation is routinely used to treat cardiac arrhythmias, but gaps remain in ablation lesion sets because there is no direct visualization of ablation-related changes.
