An automated image analysis methodology for classifying megakaryocytes in chronic myeloproliferative disorders
2008
This work describes an automatic method for discrimination in microphotographs between normal and pathological human megakaryocytes and between two kinds of disorders of these cells. A segmentation procedure has been developed, mainly based on mathematical morphology and wavelet transform, to isolate the cells. The features of each megakaryocyte (e.g. area, perimeter and tortuosity of the cell and its nucleus, and shape complexity via elliptic Fourier transform) are used by a regression tree procedure applied twice: the first time to find the set of normal megakaryocytes and the second to distinguish between the pathologies. The output of our classifier has been compared to the interpretati…
Computer-aided system for morphometric mandibular index computation (Using dental panoramic radiographs)
2012
Objective: We propose and validate a computer—aided system to measure three different mandibular indexes: cortical width, panoramic mandibular index and, mandibular alveolar bone resorption index. Study Design: Repeatability and reproducibility of the measurements are analyzed and compared to the manual estimation of the same indexes. Results: The proposed computerized system exhibits superior repeatability and reproducibility rates compared to standard manual methods. Moreover, the time required to perform the measurements using the proposed method is negligible compared to perform the measurements manually. Conclusions: We have proposed a very user friendly computerized method to measure …
Novel technologies to detect atelectotrauma in the injured lung
2010
ABSTRACTCyclical recruitment and derecruitment of lung parenchyma (R/D) remains a serious problem in ALI/ARDS patients, defined as atelectotrauma. Detection of cyclical R/D to titrate the optimal respiratory settings is of high clinical importance. Image-based technologies that are capable of detecting changes of lung ventilation within a respiratory cycle include dynamic computed tomography (dCT), synchrotron radiation computed tomography (SRCT), and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Time-dependent intra-arterial oxygen tension monitoring represents an alternative approach to detect cyclical R/D, as cyclical R/D can result in oscillations of PaO2 within a respiratory cycle. Continuous…
El acontecimiento de la inversión dialéctica
2020
La metafísica de Žižek es hegeliana, por encima de todo, porque entiende la inversión dialéctica como el núcleo real de la realidad. Por ello, para comprender su pensamiento es necesario aclarar su manera de entender esta inversión, esto es, el encuentro que, según Hegel, tiene lugar entre “sustancia” y “sujeto” y, en general, entre los extremos de las oposiciones que estructuran la realidad. Para Žižek lo propio de la posición hegeliana es localizar este encuentro en la falta de coincidencia de cada opuesto consigo mismo. La íntima inconsistencia de cada posición o identidad, su propia negatividad, constituye lo más originario de ellas y, a la vez, lo que las vincula a su otro en la forma …
La negatividad de Kant a Hegel: juicio estético y lenguaje especulativo”.
2017
Este artículo presenta una interpretación de la proposición especulativa de Hegel que, subrayando el “contragolpe” que el sujeto heredado de la tradición moderna sufre en ella, permite vincular el movimiento del sujeto hegeliano a la negatividad reconocida por Kant en el fondo de la capacidad de juzgar a propósito de la dimensión estética. De este modo se pretende, en primer lugar, cuestionar la lectura que ve en Hegel un retroceso respecto a la conciencia ganada por Kant en relación a la finitud o a la fisura constitutiva del sujeto moderno, y, en última instancia, en sintonía con relecturas recientes de Hegel como las de Žižek y Malabou, contribuir al cuestionamiento de la interpretación …
Revista española de educación comparada
2019
espanolEl objetivo de este trabajo consiste en aplicar la dialectica analogica desarrollada por Platon como una metodologia adecuada para comprender su pensamiento. En este sentido, abordare en primer lugar las aclaraciones terminologicas necesarias para delimitar el planteamiento de la cuestion y prestar una especial atencion a la nocion de symploke introducida por Platon y desarrollada posteriormente por Jesus G. Maestro como uno de los criterios hermeneuticos centrales que la Critica de la literatura debe tener en cuenta para evitar caer en el univocidad interpretativa o en la equivocidad propia de la postmodernidad. En segundo lugar, realizare una aproximacion metodologica a la lectura …
Introduction: Cultural Literacy and Creativity
2021
AbstractThe introductory chapter explains the core concepts of the book: Cultural literacy and creativity. Cultural literacy is defined as a social practice that is inherently dialogic and based on learning and gaining knowledge through emphatic, tolerant, and inclusive interaction. Creativity is seen as stimulating cultural literacy learning through openness and curiosity to test and develop something new or imaginative. The chapter introduces the Cultural Literacy Learning Programme (CLLP) and the research data: 1906 works created by 5–15-year-old children and young people who participated in the program in 2019 and 2020 in Cyprus, Germany, Israel, Lithuania, Spain, Portugal, and the UK. …
ideal: an R/Bioconductor package for interactive differential expression analysis
2020
AbstractBackgroundRNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is an ever increasingly popular tool for transcriptome profiling. A key point to make the best use of the available data is to provide software tools that are easy to use but still provide flexibility and transparency in the adopted methods. Despite the availability of many packages focused on detecting differential expression, a method to streamline this type of bioinformatics analysis in a comprehensive, accessible, and reproducible way is lacking.ResultsWe developed the ideal software package, which serves as a web application for interactive and reproducible RNA-seq analysis, while producing a wealth of visualizations to facilitate data interpr…
Physics, Techniques and Review of Neuroradiological Applications of Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging (DKI)
2016
In recent years many papers about diagnostic applications of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) have been published. This is because DTI allows to evaluate in vivo and in a non-invasive way the process of diffusion of water molecules in biological tissues. However, the simplified description of the diffusion process assumed in DTI does not permit to completely map the complex underlying cellular components and structures, which hinder and restrict the diffusion of water molecules. These limitations can be partially overcome by means of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI). The aim of this paper is the description of the theory of DKI, a new topic of growing interest in radiology. DKI is a higher or…
A matrix of combinatorial numbers related to the symmetric groups
1979
For permutation groups G of finite degree we define numbers t"B(G)=|G|^-^[email protected]?"R"@?"[email protected]?"1(1a"1(g))^b^"^i, where B=(b"1,...,b"1) is a tuple of non-negative integers and a"1(g) denotes the number of i cycles in the element g. We show that t"B(G) is the number of orbits of G, acting on a set @D"B(G) of tuples of matrices. In the case G=S"n we get a natural interpretation for combinatorial numbers connected with the Stiring numbers of the second kind.
