ALERT: This system is being upgraded on Tuesday December 12. It will not be available
for use for several hours that day while the upgrade is in progress. Deposits to DukeSpace
will be disabled on Monday December 11, so no new items are to be added to the repository
while the upgrade is in progress. Everything should be back to normal by the end of
day, December 12.

A Cloud-Based Infrastructure for Cancer Genomics
(2020)The advent of new genomic approaches, particularly next generation sequencing (NGS) has resulted in explosive growth of biological data. As the size of biological data keeps growing at exponential rates, new methods for ... -
A new fully automated approach for aligning and comparing shapes.
(Anatomical record (Hoboken, N.J. : 2007), 2015-01)Three-dimensional geometric morphometric (3DGM) methods for placing landmarks on digitized bones have become increasingly sophisticated in the last 20 years, including greater degrees of automation. One aspect shared by ... -
A robotics platform for automated batch fabrication of high density, microfluidics-based DNA microarrays, with applications to single cell, multiplex assays of secreted proteins.
(The Review of scientific instruments, 2011-09)Microfluidics flow-patterning has been utilized for the construction of chip-scale miniaturized DNA and protein barcode arrays. Such arrays have been used for specific clinical and fundamental investigations in which many ... -
An automated method for comparing motion artifacts in cine four-dimensional computed tomography images.
(Journal of applied clinical medical physics, 2012-11-08)The aim of this study is to develop an automated method to objectively compare motion artifacts in two four-dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) image sets, and identify the one that would appear to human observers with ... -
Automated Detection of P. falciparum Using Machine Learning Algorithms with Quantitative Phase Images of Unstained Cells.
(PloS one, 2016-01)Malaria detection through microscopic examination of stained blood smears is a diagnostic challenge that heavily relies on the expertise of trained microscopists. This paper presents an automated analysis method for detection ... -
Automated quality control in nuclear medicine using the structured noise index.
(Journal of applied clinical medical physics, 2020-04)<h4>Purpose</h4>Daily flood-field uniformity evaluation serves as the central element of nuclear medicine (NM) quality control (QC) programs. Uniformity images are traditionally analyzed using pixel value-based metrics, ... -
Characterizing and predicting the interaction of proteins with nanoparticles
(2023)Nanoparticles are being used or implemented in a wide array of applications including health care, cosmetics, automotive, food, beverage, coatings, consumer electronics, and coatings. Despite this widespread use, we are ... -
Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Supra-Intelligence
(2020)All things were created by Him and for Him:Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Supra-IntelligenceFascination with automation has captured the human imagination for thousands of years. As far back as 800 CE, when ... -
Inhibition of the futalosine pathway for menaquinone biosynthesis suppresses Chlamydia trachomatis infection.
(FEBS letters, 2021-12)Chlamydia trachomatis, an obligate intracellular bacterium with limited metabolic capabilities, possesses the futalosine pathway for menaquinone biosynthesis. Futalosine pathway enzymes have promise as narrow-spectrum antibiotic ... -
Microfluidic platform versus conventional real-time polymerase chain reaction for the detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae in respiratory specimens.
(Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis, 2010-05)Rapid, accurate diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae is compromised by low sensitivity of culture and serology. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has emerged as a sensitive method to ... -
Quantitative comparison of automatic and manual IMRT optimization for prostate cancer: the benefits of DVH prediction.
(Journal of applied clinical medical physics, 2015-03-08)A recent publication indicated that the patient anatomical feature (PAF) model was capable of predicting optimal objectives based on past experience. In this study, the benefits of IMRT optimization using PAF-predicted objectives ... -
SplicerEX: a tool for the automated detection and classification of mRNA changes from conventional and splice-sensitive microarray expression data.
(RNA (New York, N.Y.), 2012-08)The key postulate that one gene encodes one protein has been overhauled with the discovery that one gene can generate multiple RNA transcripts through alternative mRNA processing. In this study, we describe SplicerEX, a ...
