Statistical process control to monitor use of a web‐based autoplanning tool

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose To investigate the use of statistical process control (SPC) for quality assurance of an integrated web‐based autoplanning tool, Radiation Planning Assistant (RPA). Methods Automatically generated plans were downloaded and imported into two treatment planning systems (TPSs), RayStation and Eclipse, in which they were recalculated using ...

Characteristic feature analysis of continuous optimization problems based on Variability Map of objective function for optimization algorithm configuration

Open Computer Science, 2020
Advanced optimization algorithms with a variety of configurable parameters become increasingly difficult to apply effectively to solving optimization problems. Appropriate algorithm configuration becomes highly relevant, still remaining a computationally

Global Optimization by Adiabatic Switching [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2002
We apply a recently introduced method for global optimization to determine the ground state energy and configuration for model metallic clusters. The global minimum for a given N–atom cluster is found by following the damped dynamics of the N particle system on an evolving potential energy surface.

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

Utility of syndromic surveillance for the surveillance of healthcare-associated infections in resource-limited settings: a narrative review

Frontiers in Microbiology
Globally, Healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) pose a significant threat to patient safety and healthcare systems. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), the lack of adequate resources to manage HCAIs, as well as the weak healthcare system ...

An improved chaotic firefly algorithm for global numerical optimization

International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2018
Firefly algorithm (FA) is a prominent metaheuristc technique. It has been widely studied and hence there are a lot of modified FA variants proposed to solve hard optimization problems from various areas.

Hovering Swarm Particle Swarm Optimization

IEEE Access, 2021
PSO is a simple and yet powerful metaheuristic search algorithm widely used to solve various optimization problems. Nevertheless, conventional PSO tends to lose its population diversity drastically and suffer with compromised performance when ...

Global optimization via optimal decision trees

Journal of Global Optimization, 2023
AbstractThe global optimization literature places large emphasis on reducing intractable optimization problems into more tractable structured optimization forms. In order to achieve this goal, many existing methods are restricted to optimization over explicit constraints and objectives that use a subset of possible mathematical primitives.

Insights into the renal pathophysiology in Hermansky‐Pudlak syndrome‐1 from urinary extracellular vesicle proteomics and a new mouse model

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hermansky‐Pudlak syndrome type 1 (HPS‐1) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder with poorly understood renal involvement. Urinary extracellular vesicle (uEV) proteomics and a novel Hps1 mouse model reveal mitochondrial abnormalities and lipid accumulation in HPS‐1 kidney proximal tubule cells. Serum ApoA1 correlates with kidney function in our patient
