Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...

The Maximal Domain for the Revelation Principle when Preferences are Menu Dependent [PDF]
We extend the domain of preferences to include menu-dependent preferences and characterize the maximal subset of this domain in which the revelation principle holds. Minimax-regret preference is shown to be outside this subset.microeconomics ;

A dynamic mechanism and surplus extraction under ambiguity [PDF]
, 2007 We study the question of auction design in an IPV setting characterized by ambiguity. We assume that the preferences of agents exhibit ambiguity aversion; in particular, they are represented by the epsilon-contamination model.

Gibbard-Satterthwaite Success Stories and Obvious Strategyproofness [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The Gibbard-Satterthwaite Impossibility Theorem holds that dictatorship is the only Pareto optimal and strategyproof social choice function on the full domain of preferences. Much of the work in mechanism design aims at getting around this impossibility theorem. Three grand success stories stand out.

Occurrence, Risk Factors, and Prognosis of Acute Cerebral Microinfarcts in CADASIL
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most common monogenic cerebral small vessel disease in adults. This study investigates the occurrence, risk factors, and prognosis of acute cerebral microinfarcts (ACMIs) in patients with CADASIL.
