Machine Learning-Based Synthetic Computed Tomography Derived From Temporal Bone Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

IMPORTANCE: For diagnostics and presurgical planning in otology, both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) are frequently required to visualize soft tissues and bone structures. Ideally, visualization of both soft and bony tissues would be obtained using a single, radiation-free imaging modality. OBJECTIVE: To train and evaluate a machine learning algorithm designed for ge...

Analytical and AINN-based investigation of surface wave propagation in dry long bones with initial stress, magnetic field, and rotation effects.

This study presents a comprehensive analytical and artificial intelligence neural network (AINN)-based investigation of wave propagation in dry long bones, modeled as an orthotropic hollow cylindrical structure. The proposed model incorporates the combined effects of initial stress, magnetic field, and rotational motion to capture the complex behavior of bone-like media under coupled physical infl...

Empirical modeling of vehicle-bicycle interactions on high-speed rural roads: passing lateral distance and speed.

Driving behavior and interactions with bicyclists on rural roads have not been quantified and modeled extensively. Naturalistic bicycling data for 1,9...
