Considering the Oxygen Effect : Further Development of a Volumetric Model of Tumor Response to Radiation Therapy for Cervical Cancer
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Mathematical modeling of tumor response to radiation therapy (RT) has great potential for designing therapy plans that are more personalized, more adaptive, and more reliable for outcome predictions. A preexisting model ...
An Information-Theoretic Approach to Cellular Decision-Making Strategies: How Rate Distortion Theory Provides an Optimal Method for Describing Binary Cellular Decision-Making Systems
(2014)
Rate distortion theory, a branch of information theory, was originally developed to help improve the efficiency of data transmission in telecommunications. It's currently being used as a major modeling method to provide ...
Graviton and photon orbitals surrounding a black hole : Application to the supermassive black hole at the Milky Way galactic center, with NIR observational confirmation.
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Non-relativistic Quantum Theory fairly accurately describes the resonance phenomena around a black hole, even though black holes are thought of as general relativistic (GR) objects. Graphically and numerically we are able ...
Feasibility Study of Dual Energy Radiographic Imaging for Target Localization in Radiotherapy for Lung Tumors
(2014)
Purpose
Dual-energy (DE) radiographic imaging improves tissue discrimination by separating soft from hard tissues in the acquired images. This study was to establish a mathematic model of DE imaging based on intrinsic ...
