A Model for the Analysis of Caries Occurrence in Primary Molar Tooth Surfaces [PDF]
Recently methods of caries quantification in the primary dentition have moved away from summary ‘whole mouth’ measures at the individual level to methods based on generalised linear modelling (GLM) approaches or survival analysis approaches. However, GLM

HRF estimation improves sensitivity of fMRI encoding and decoding models [PDF]
Extracting activation patterns from functional Magnetic Resonance Images (fMRI) datasets remains challenging in rapid-event designs due to the inherent delay of blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal. The general linear model (GLM) allows to estimate
