151 Vardhan, AvantikaCharacterizing growth patterns in longitudinal MRI using image contrastUnderstanding the growth patterns of the early brain is crucial to the study of neuro-development. In the early stages of brain growth, a rapid sequence of biophysical and chemical processes take place. A crucial component of these processes, known as myelination, consists of the formation of a myel...2014-01-01
152 Berzins, MartinDAG-based software frameworks for PDEsThe task-based approach to software and parallelism is well-known and has been proposed as a potential candidate, named the silver model, for exas-cale software. This approach is not yet widely used in the large-scale multi-core parallel computing of complex systems of partial differential equations...2012-01-01
153 Henderson, Thomas C.Explicit and persistent knowledge in engineering drawing analysisDomain knowledge permeates all aspects of the engineering drawing analysis process, including understanding the physical processes operating on the medium (i.e., paper), the image analysis techniques, and the interpretation semantics of the structural layout and contents of the drawing.

154 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
155 Hansen, Charles D.GPUFLIC: interactive and accurate dense visualization of unsteady flowsAbstract The paper presents an efficient and accurate implementation of Unsteady Flow LIC (UFLIC) on the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU).

157 Weinstein, DavidStatistical analysis for FEM EEG source localization in realistic head modelsEstimating the location and distribution of electric current sources within the brain from electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings is an ill-posed inverse problem. The ill-posed nature of the inverse EEG problem is due to the lack of a unique solution such that different configurations of sources c...inverse EEG problem; FEM EEG; source localization2000
158 Whitaker, Ross T.Curve boxplot: Generalization of boxplot for ensembles of curvesIn simulation science, computational scientists often study the behavior of their simulations by repeated solutions with variations in parameters and/or boundary values or initial conditions. Through such simulation ensembles, one can try to understand or quantify the variability or uncertainty in a...2014-01-01
159 Tasdizen, Tolga; Whitaker, Ross T.Higher-order nonlinear priors for surface reconstructionAbstract-For surface reconstruction problems with noisy and incomplete range data, a Bayesian estimation approach can improve the overall quality of the surfaces. The Bayesian approach to surface estimation relies on a likelihood term, which ties the surface estimate to the input data, and the prior...2004
160 Bargteil, Adam WadeMultiphase flow of immiscible fluids on unstructured moving meshesIn this paper, we present a method for animating multiphase flow of immiscible fluids using unstructured moving meshes. Our underlying discretization is an unstructured tetrahedral mesh, the deformable simplicial complex (DSC), that moves with the flow in a Lagrangian manner. Mesh optimization opera...2014-01-01
161 Freire, Juliana; Silva, Claudio T.Enabling advanced visualization tools in a web-based simulation monitoring systemSimulations that require massive amounts of computing power and generate tens of terabytes of data are now part of the daily lives of scientists. Analyzing and visualizing the results of these simulations as they are computed can lead not only to early insights but also to useful knowledge that ca...Isosurfaces; Contour tree; Turbulent combustion; eSimMon2009-12
162 Zhdanov, Michael S.Fast numerical modeling of multitransmitter electromagnetic data using multigrid quasi-linear approximationMultitransmitter electromagnetic (EM) surveys are widely used in remote-sensing and geophysical exploration. The interpretation of the multitransmitter geophysical data requires numerous three-dimensional (3-D) modelings of the responses of the receivers for different geoelectrical models of comple...Multitransmitter electromagnetic data; Numerical modeling; Multigrid quasi-linear approximation; Quasilinear approximation; geophysical exploration; 3-D modeling2006-06
163 Parker, Steven G.Memory-savvy distributed interactive ray tracingInteractive ray tracing in a cluster environment requires paying close attention to the constraints of a loosely coupled distributed system. To render large scenes interactively, memory limits and network latency must be addressed efficiently. In this paper, we improve previous systems by moving to ...2004
164 Henderson, Thomas C.SLAMBOT: Structural health monitoring robot using lamb wavesWe propose the combination of a mobile robot and a computational sensor network approach to perform structural health monitoring of structures.

165 Golden, Kenneth M.Transition in the fractal geometry of Arctic melt pondsDuring the Arctic melt season, the sea ice surface undergoes a remarkable transformation from vast expanses of snow covered ice to complex mosaics of ice and melt ponds. Sea ice albedo, a key parameter in climate modeling, is determined by the complex evolution of melt pond configurations. In fact, ...2012-01-01
166 Van Uitert, Robert; Weinstein, David; Johnson, Christopher R.Volume currents in forward and inverse MEG simulations using realistic head modelsMany magnetoencephalography (MEG) forward and inverse simulation models employ spheres, a singular shape which does not require consideration of volume currents. With more realistic, inhomogenous, anisotropic, non-spherical head models, volume currents cannot be ignored. We verify the accuracy of ...Forward MEG, Inverse MEG, Source localization, Volume currents, Finite element method2001

169 Riloff, Ellen M.Learning domain-specific information extraction patterns from the webMany information extraction (IE) systems rely on manually annotated training data to learn patterns or rules for extracting information about events. Manually annotating data is expensive, however, and a new data set must be annotated for each domain. So most IE training sets are relatively small. C...Information extraction; Domain-specific; Annotated training sets; MUC-42006
