The perl script nu_correct implements a novel approach to correcting for intensity non-uniformity in MR data that achieves high performance without requiring supervision. By making relatively few assumptions about the data, the method can be applied at an early stage in an automated data analysis, before a tissue intensity or geometric model is available. Described as Non-parametric Non-uniform intensity Normalization (N3), the method is independent of pulse sequence and insensitive to pathological data that might otherwise violate model assumptions. To eliminate the dependence of the field estimate on anatomy, an iterative approach is employed to estimate both the multiplicative bias field and the distribution of the true tissue intensities. Preprocessing of MR data using N3 has been shown to substantially improve the accuracy of anatomical analysis techniques such as tissue classification and cortical surface extraction.

A Bayesian image-based prediction algorithm that is based on the Relevance Vector Machine and Automatic Relevance Detection frameworks, which are popular approaches in Machine Learning. RVoxM adapts this framework to handle images and explicitly models the spatial smoothness in images. RVoxM can be used to learn to predict a binary or continuous variable from image data.

Maintains and provides archival, retrieval and analytical resources for biological information. Central DDBJ resource consists of public, open-access nucleotide sequence databases including raw sequence reads, assembly information and functional annotation. Database content is exchanged with EBI and NCBI within the framework of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC). In 2011, DDBJ launched two new resources: DDBJ Omics Archive and BioProject. DOR is archival database of functional genomics data generated by microarray and highly parallel new generation sequencers. Data are exchanged between the ArrayExpress at EBI and DOR in the common MAGE-TAB format. BioProject provides organizational framework to access metadata about research projects and data from projects that are deposited into different databases.

Genomes of over 1,200 organisms can be found in this database, representing both completely sequenced organisms and those for which sequencing is in progress. Users can browse by organism, and view genome maps and protein clusters. Links to other prokaryotic and archaeal genome projects, as well as BLAST tools and access to the rest of the NCBI online resources are available.

A toolbox with graphical user interfaces for processing infant brain MR images. Longitudinal (or single-time-point) multimodality (including T1, T2, and FA) (or single-modality) data can be processed using the toolbox. Main functions of the software (step by step) include image preprocessing, brain extraction, tissue segmentation and brain labeling. Linux operating system (64 bit) is required. A workstation or server with memory >8G is recommended for processing many images simutaneously. The graphical user interfaces and overall framework of the software are implemented in MATLAB. The image processing functions are implemented with the combination of C/C++, MATLAB, Perl and Shell languages. Parallelization technologies are used in the software to speed up image processing.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/sreps/
Software to fit s-reps to segmented anatomic objects, to compute probability distributions on these s-reps, to train and to apply classifiers between two classes of anatomic objects, and to apply hypothesis testing to determine which geometric or physiological features vary significantly between two classes. Software for object segmentation from medical images may also be included. S-reps are skeletal models for anatomic objects especially suited for computing probability distributions from populations of these objects and for providing object-related coordinates for the interior of these objects. They allow classification and hypothesis testing using their geometric features and physiological features derived from medical images. They also allow the definition of shape spaces, probability-based geometric typicality functions, and appearance models used for segmentation or registration. A variety of successful applications to objects in neuroimages have already been performed.

A source to FIND and APPLY for federal grants. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is proud to be the managing partner for Grants.gov, an initiative that is having an unparalleled impact on the grant community. All discretionary grants offered by the 26 federal grant-making agencies can be found on Grants.gov. Grants.gov was established as a governmental resource named the E-Grants Initiative, part of the President's 2002 Fiscal Year Management Agenda to improve government services to the public. The concept has its origins in the Federal Financial Assistance Management Improvement Act of 1999, also known as Public Law 106-107. Public Law 106-107 has since sunset and is now known as the Grants Policy Committee (GPC). For more information on the Grants Policy Committee, click here. Today, Grants.gov is a central storehouse for information on over 1,000 grant programs and provides access to approximately $500 billion in annual awards. You may find information on *What is a Grant? *Who is Eligible for a Grant? *Program highlights and accomplishments *Grants.gov in the News (Articles, press releases, milestones and events) *Program Status (Detailed information about our relationship with partner federal agencies, financial contributions, grant opportunities, fiscal reports, planning strategies and statistics.)
