 | Gerig, Guido | A joint framework for 4D segmentation and estimation of smooth temporal appearance changes | Medical imaging studies increasingly use longitudinal images of individual subjects in order to follow-up changes due to development, degeneration, disease progression or efficacy of therapeutic intervention. Repeated image data of individuals are highly correlated, and the strong causality of infor... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Regehr, John | Cause reduction for quick testing | Abstract-In random testing, it is often desirable to produce a "quick test" - an extremely inexpensive test suite that can serve as a frequently applied regression and allow the benefits of random testing to be obtained even in very slow or oversubscribed test environments. Delta debugging is an alg... | 2014-01-01 | |
