Predicting Disease Onset from Mutation Status Using Proband and Relative Data with Applications to Huntington's Disease by Tianle Chen, Yuanjia Wang, Yanyuan Ma, Karen Marder, Douglas R. Langbehn

“…In this work, we use the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm to handle the missing huntingtin gene information in first-degree family members in COHORT, assuming that a family member has the same CAG length as the proband if the family member carries a huntingtin gene mutation. …”

Spatiotemporal Variance Image Reconstruction for Thermographic Inspections by Logan M. Wilcox, Emily M. Johnson, Emma T. Bohannon, Catherine E. Johnson, Kristen M. Donnell

“…The radiated power density is spatially nonuniform and therefore results in a spatially nonuniform thermal excitation, which may result in missed or false indications of defects. To this end, this work proposes a novel image reconstruction technique for nonuniform excitation/heating and is referred to as spatiotemporal variance reconstruction (STVR). …”
