Analyzing and Improving the Image Quality of StyleGAN [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019
The style-based GAN architecture (StyleGAN) yields state-of-the-art results in data-driven unconditional generative image modeling. We expose and analyze several of its characteristic artifacts, and propose changes in both model architecture and training

Cascade R-CNN: Delving Into High Quality Object Detection [PDF]

open access: yes2018 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2017
In object detection, an intersection over union (IoU) threshold is required to define positives and negatives. An object detector, trained with low IoU threshold, e.g. 0.5, usually produces noisy detections.

The Danish National Patient Registry: a review of content, data quality, and research potential

open access: yesClinical Epidemiology, 2015
Background The Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR) is one of the world’s oldest nationwide hospital registries and is used extensively for research. Many studies have validated algorithms for identifying health events in the DNPR, but the reports are

Fast, scalable generation of high-quality protein multiple sequence alignments using Clustal Omega

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2011
Multiple sequence alignments are fundamental to many sequence analysis methods. Most alignments are computed using the progressive alignment heuristic. These methods are starting to become a bottleneck in some analysis pipelines when faced with data sets

A Conceptual Model of Service Quality and Its Implications for Future Research

open access: yes, 1985
The attainment of quality in products and services has become a pivotal concern of the 1980s. While quality in tangible goods has been described and measured by marketers, quality in services is largely undefined and unresearched.

Large-Area Synthesis of High-Quality and Uniform Graphene Films on Copper Foils [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
Growing Graphene The highest quality graphene samples, single-atom-thick layers of carbon, are suspended flakes exfoliated from graphite, but these samples are very small in size (square micrometers).

Sensory Qualities, Sensible Qualities, Sensational Qualities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Abstract In theorizing about perception philosophers have often multiplied qualities. To perceptible qualities of external objects, like colours and shapes (‘sensible’ qualities), have been added qualities of experiences (‘sensory’ qualities) or of sense-data (‘sensational’ qualities). This article starts with sensory qualities.

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about
