Magnetic Resonance Imaging Biomarker Calibration Service: Proton Spin Relaxation Times

May 3, 2018
Author(s)
Michael A. Boss, Andrew M. Dienstfrey, Zydrunas Gimbutas, Kathryn E. Keenan, Jolene D. Splett, Karl F. Stupic, Stephen E. Russek
This document describes the calibration service to measure proton spin relaxation times, T1 and T2, of materials used in phantoms (calibration artifacts) to verify the accuracy of MRI-based quantitative measurements. Proton spin relaxation times are used

Analysis, Comparison, and Assessment of Latent Fingerprint Preprocessing

July 20, 2017
Author(s)
Haiying Guan, Paul Y. Lee, Curtis L. Lamp, Andrew Dienstfrey, Mary Frances Theofanos, Brian Stanton, Matthew Schwarz
Latent fingerprints obtained from crime scenes are rarely immediately suitable for identification purposes. Instead, most latent fingerprint images must be preprocessed to enhance the fingerprint information held within the digital image, while suppressing

Calibration of Time-interleaved Errors in Real-time Digital Oscilloscopes

November 1, 2016
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Jargon, Chihyun Cho, Joo-Gwang Lee, Paul D. Hale, Peter J. Jeavons, John B. Schlager, Andrew M. Dienstfrey
A novel method is proposed for the calibration of channel mismatch in a time-interleaved real- time digital oscilloscope (RTDO). A simple simultaneous equation is derived from the Fourier transform of the time-interleaved signals requiring only a transfer

On challenges in the uncertainty evaluation for time-dependent measurements

June 14, 2016
Author(s)
Sascha Eichstadt, Volker Wilkens, Andrew Dienstfrey, Paul D. Hale, Ben Hughes, Charles Jarvis
The measurement of quantities with time-dependent values is a common task in many areas of metrology. Although well established techniques are available for the analysis of such measurements, serious scientific challenges remain to be solved to enable

Calibration of channel mismatch in time-interleaved real-time digital oscilloscopes

May 22, 2015
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Jargon, Paul D. Hale, Peter J. Jeavons, John B. Schlager, Andrew M. Dienstfrey, Joo-Gwang Lee, Chihyun Cho
A novel method is proposed for the calibration of channel mismatch in a time-interleaved real- time digital oscilloscope (RTDO). The method only requires a transfer function of time- interleaved ADCs (TIADCs), and also proposes measurement schemes of the

A Measurement Metric for Forensic Latent Fingerprint Preprocessing

July 31, 2014
Author(s)
Haiying Guan, Andrew Dienstfrey, Mary Frances Theofanos, Brian Stanton
Although fingerprint mark-up and identification are well-studied fields, forensic fingerprint image preprocessing is still a relatively new domain in need of further scientific study and development of guidance of best practice. Latent fingerprint image

Colored Noise and Regularization Parameter Selection for Waveform Metrology

July 8, 2014
Author(s)
Andrew M. Dienstfrey, Paul D. Hale
We study six regularization parameter selection algorithms applied to deconvolution problems relevant for characterization of high-speed communication measurement systems. In particular we investigate the performance of these selectors in the presence of
