Developing a multi‐modal MRI radiomics‐based model to predict the long‐term overall survival of patients with hypopharyngeal cancer receiving definitive radiotherapy

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of this study is to develop a multimodal MRI radiomics‐based model for predicting long‐term overall survival in hypopharyngeal cancer patients undergoing definitive radiotherapy. Methods We enrolled 207 hypopharyngeal cancer patients who underwent definitive radiotherapy and had 5‐year overall survival outcomes from two major

A Bayesian binary classification approach to pure tone audiometry [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
The pure tone hearing threshold is usually estimated from responses to stimuli at a set of standard frequencies. This paper describes a probabilistic approach to the estimation problem in which the hearing threshold is modelled as a smooth continuous function of frequency using a Gaussian process.
