Let $\cT$ be Teichmüller space of a closed surface of genus at least 2. For any point $c\in \cT$, we describe an action of the circle on $\cT\times \cT$, which limits to the earthquake flow when one of the parameters goes to a measured lamination in the Thurston boundary of $\cT$. This circle action shares some of the …

A new COVID-19 CT dataset helps develop AI diagnosis models.

For a smooth manifold $M$ we define the Teichmüller space $\cT(M)$ of all Riemannian metrics on $M$ and the Teichmüller space $\cT^ε(M)$ of $ε$-pinched negatively curved metrics on $M$, where $0\leqε\leq\infty$. We prove that if $M$ is hyperbolic the natural inclusion $\cT^ε(M)\hookrightarrow\cT(M)$ is, in general, not…

NIST's CTS Challenge evaluates speaker recognition using telephony data.

A major challenge in X-ray computed tomography (CT) is reducing radiation dose while maintaining high quality of reconstructed images. To reduce the radiation dose, one can reduce the number of projection views (sparse-view CT); however, it becomes difficult to achieve high-quality image reconstruction as the number of…

NIST CTS Superset offers a large dataset for telephony speaker recognition.

A major challenge in computed tomography (CT) is to reduce X-ray dose to a low or even ultra-low level while maintaining the high quality of reconstructed images. We propose a new method for CT reconstruction that combines penalized weighted-least squares reconstruction (PWLS) with regularization based on a sparsifying…

Computed tomography (CT) equivalent information is needed for attenuation correction in PET imaging and for dose planning in radiotherapy.

Statistical image reconstruction (SIR) methods are studied extensively for X-ray computed tomography (CT) due to the potential of acquiring CT scans with reduced X-ray dose while maintaining image quality. However, the longer reconstruction time of SIR methods hinders their use in X-ray CT in practice. To accelerate st…

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the global leading cause of death. A strong risk factor for CVD events is the amount of coronary artery calcium (CAC).

Let $M$ be a closed Riemannian manifold with a parallel 1-form $Ω$. We prove two theorems about the curve shortening flow in $M$. One is that the {\csf} $\ct$ in $M$ exists for all $t$ in $[0, \infty)$, if it satisfies $Ω(T)\geq 0$ on the initial curve $\co$. Here $T$ is the unit tangent vector on $\co$. The other one …
