Contrast‐to‐noise ratios of diffusion anisotropy indices [PDF]
AbstractThe degree of diffusion anisotropy in different brain regions is usually measured by a diffusion anisotropy index (DAI) such as relative anisotropy (RA) and fractional anisotropy (FA). FA has been reported to have a higher contrast‐to‐noise ratio (CNR) than RA. The present work compares the CNRs of seven DAIs in theoretical propagation‐of‐error

Objective and efficient terahertz signal denoising by transfer function reconstruction [PDF]
As an essential processing step in many disciplines, signal denoising efficiently improves data quality without extra cost. However, it is relatively under-utilized for terahertz spectroscopy.
