Extended-Aperture Shape Measurements Using Spatially Partially Coherent Illumination (ExASPICE)
We have recently demonstrated that the 3D shape of micro-parts can be measured using LED illumination based on speckle contrast evaluation in the recently developed SPICE profilometry (shape measurements based on imaging with spatially partially coherent

ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

The wetting behavior in laser brazing can be designated as inconstant, caused largely by external process discontinuities such as the wire feeding. To reveal periodic melt pool propagation effects that occur during laser brazing of aluminum and for a ...

The Role of Response Bias in Perceptual Learning [PDF]
Sensory judgments improve with practice. Such perceptual learning is often thought to reflect an increase in perceptual sensitivity. However, it may also represent a decrease in response bias, with unpracticed observers acting in part on a priori hunches

ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors often recur despite multimodality therapy. Although re‐irradiation (re‐RT) has historically been limited by concerns for severe late toxicities, modern techniques have renewed interest in this approach. Proton therapy provides dosimetric advantages that may enable curative re‐treatment with

Bias and Sensitivity Analysis When Estimating Treatment Effects from the Cox Model with Omitted Covariates [PDF]
Omission of relevant covariates can lead to bias when estimating treatment or exposure effects from survival data in both randomized controlled trials and observational studies. This paper presents a general approach to assessing bias when covariates are
