Prenatal auditory experience and its sequelae

Lukas Vogelsang, Marin Vogelsang

Towards the end of the second trimester of gestation, a human fetus is able to register environmental sounds. This in utero auditory experience is characterized by comprising strongly low-pass-filtered versions of sounds from the external world. Here, we p ...

Simultaneous unwrapping and low pass filtering of continuous phase maps based on autoregressive phase model and wrapped Kalman filtering

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

We propose a simultaneous noise filtering and phase unwrapping algorithm. Spatial evolution of phase is modeled as an autoregressive Gaussian Markov random field. Accordingly, phase value at a pixel is related to phase values at surrounding pixels in a pro ...

Accelerated MP2RAGE imaging using Cartesian phyllotaxis readout and compressed sensing reconstruction

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Reto Meuli

Purpose MP2RAGE T-1-weighted imaging has been shown to be beneficial for various applications, mainly because of its good grey-white matter contrast, its B-1-robustness and ability to derive T(1)maps. Even using parallel imaging, the method requires long a ...

Random sampling of bandlimited signals on graphs

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval, Gilles Puy, Nicolas Tremblay

We study the problem of sampling k-bandlimited signals on graphs. We propose two sampling strategies that consist in selecting a small subset of nodes at random. The first strategy is non-adaptive, i.e., independent of the graph structure, and its performa ...
