Identification with interruptions as an anti-bursting device
Magnetic Resonance Diffusion Tensor Imaging (MR–DTI) is a noninvasive in vivo method capable of examining the structure of human brain, providing information about the position and orientation of the neural tracts. After a short introduction to the principles of MR–DTI, this paper describes the steps of the proposed neural tract visualization technique based on the DTI data. The cornerstone of the algorithm is a texture diffusion procedure modeled mathematically by the problem for the Allen–Cahn...
Testing that some regression coefficients are equal to zero is an important problem in many applications. Homoscedasticity is not necessarily a realistic condition in this setting and, as a consequence, no frequentist test there exist. Approximate tests have been proposed. In this paper a Bayesian analysis of this problem is carried out, from a default Bayesian model choice perspective. Explicit expressions for intrinsic priors are provided, and it is shown that the corresponding Bayes factor is...
