Extracting More Data from LiDAR in Forested Areas by Analyzing Waveform Shape [PDF]
Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) in forested areas is used for constructing Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), estimating biomass carbon and timber volume and estimating foliage distribution as an indicator of tree growth and health. All of these purposes

Performance of peak signal‐to‐noise ratio quality assessment in video streaming with packet losses
The effect of packet losses over error‐prone networks on visual quality of distributed video contents, estimated through subjective opinion and PSNR as an objective measure is analysed. It is shown that, within a fixed content, the variation of PSNR is a reliable indicator of the variation of packet loss rates.

Network Localization of Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Background Fatigue is among the most common symptoms and one of the main factors determining the quality of life in multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying fatigue are not fully understood. Here we studied lesion locations and their connections in individuals with MS, aiming to identify brain networks ...

Is there a relationship between peak‐signal‐to‐noise ratio and structural similarity index measure?
In this study, the authors analyse two well‐known image quality metrics, peak‐signal‐to‐noise ratio (PSNR) as well as structural similarity index measure (SSIM), and the authors derive an analytical relationship between them which works for some kinds of common image degradations such as Gaussian blur, additive Gaussian noise, Jpeg and Jpeg2000 ...

Acoustic Measures Capture Speech Dysfunction in Spinocerebellar Ataxia
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are hereditary cerebellar degenerative disorders with a common feature of dysarthria, involving impaired phonatory and articulatory control of speech, thereby affecting social communication. In this study, we investigated whether acoustic measures could objectively measure speech dysfunction and identify
