Diffusion‐MRI‐Based Estimation of Cortical Architecture via Machine Learning (DECAM) in Primate Brains

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present Diffusion‐MRI‐based Estimation of Cortical Architecture via Machine Learning (DECAM), a deep‐learning framework for estimating primate brain cortical architecture optimized with best response constraint and cortical label vectors. Trained using macaque brain high‐resolution multi‐shell dMRI and histology data, DECAM generates high‐fidelity ...

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Into an interactive theorem provers (ITPs), one can write mathematical definitions, theorems and proofs, and the correctness of those results is automatically checked. This perspective goes over the best usage of ITPs within physics and motivates the open‐source community run project PhysLean, the aim of which is to be a library for digitalized physics
