description: This is the challenge design document for the "Rib Fracture Detection and Classification Challenge", accepted for MICCAI 2020. Diagnosis of rib fractures serves as an important and common task in clinical practice, forensics and several business scenarios (e.g., insurance claims). However, few prior studies investigate automatic machine learning techniques on this labor-intensive task. This challenge establishes a large-scale benchmark dataset to automatically detect and classify around 3,000 rib fractures from 660 computed tomography (CT) scans, which consists of 420 training CTs (all with fractures), 80 validation CTs (20 without fractures) and 160 evaluation CTs (40 without fractures). Each annotation consists of a pixel-level mask of rib fracture regions (for serving detection), plus a 4-type classification. Both detection and classification task are involved in this challenge. An algorithmic challenge for rib fracture detection and classification is the elongated object shape. We hope this challenge could facilitate the research and application of automatic rib fracture detection and diagnoses.

description: Since records are timebound and contextual metadata must be understood by an observer whose frame of reference is different from that of the recordkeeper, there is a need for external validation. The processes of terminological control (based on definition) are inadequate for this purpose. What is needed is a process of contextual control (based on observation). Ambience is the context of provenance and it is there that we will find external validation of provenance data. Functions offer one possible tool for crafting ambient relationships.Ambient functions define and give meaning to agents of recordkeeping within the context in which they operate. Ambient functions should be distinguished from business activities and processes which do not afford the basis for meaningful discrimination necessary when formulating appraisal categories and useful searchpatterns.

description: The Eight Hundred and Thirty-Second ACT of the Parliament of the Republic of Ghana entitled: Renewable Energy Act, 2011 has assented to provide for the development, management, utilization, sustainability and adequate supply of renewable energy for generation of heat and power for related matters by the year 2020. With the current load shedding and inadequate energy supply in Ghana, it was essential to examine other options that can be added to the grid installed capacity to ease the burden on Ghanaians. The study examined the solar energy resources in Ghana and how this huge potential can be utilized to grow and modernize the Ghanaian economy in order to decrease the high prevalence of poverty. Access to energy has been proven to directly affect human development, therefore, an option of the diversified local energy mix for electricity production will be the best choice to improve an energy economy that would guarantee a safe and consistent supply of high-quality energy services for all Ghanaian. Evidence from the study shows that Ghana has a good potential for both concentrating and non-concentrating solar technologies. It is estimated that 50–100 MW solar energy potential are still untapped in Ghana which requires an investment of US $100–150 million. Developing and harnessing this renewable energy potential will boost the productivity of businesses, industries, and the transport sector while making a significant contribution to the export earnings of the country.

description: 3D nanoparticle-based materials with reconfigurable structure have gained vast attention due to the unique possibility of tailoring nanoparticle-related quantum confinement effects. These properties make active nanoparticle assemblies promising candidates for future optoelectronic and metamaterial technologies; however, integration of these materials into real-world applications is still challenging. In this context, the use of stimuli responsive liquid-crystals (LCs) offers a fascinating and industrially feasible strategy for active directing of NPs. Here, we briefly review LCs/NPs hybrid systems in which dynamic behaviour is achieved by affecting either LC matrix or LC ligands. We also experimentally evaluate a complementary strategy based on directly affecting metallic core of LC-covered NPs in an Ostwald ripening process.

description: Purpose: To explore speech pathology services for people with Down syndrome across the lifespan. Method: Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) working in Australia were invited to complete an online survey, which enquired about the speech pathology services they had provided to client/s with Down syndrome in the past 12 months. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics. Result: A total of 390 SLPs completed the survey; 62% reported seeing a client with Down syndrome in the past 12 months. Most commonly, SLPs provided assessment and individual intervention for communication with varying levels of family involvement. The areas of dysphagia and/or communication addressed by SLPs, or in need of more services differed according to the age of the person with Down syndrome. SLPs reported a number of reasons why services were restricted. Conclusion: There is a need to re-assess the way that SLPs currently provide services to people with Down syndrome. More research is needed to develop and evaluate treatment approaches that can be used to better address the needs of this population.

description: This is the challenge design document for the "Towards the Automatization of Cranial Implant Design in Cranioplasty" Challenge, accepted for MICCAI 2020. Cranioplasty is the surgical process where a skull defect, caused in a brain tumor surgery or by trauma, is repaired using a cranial implant, which must fit precisely against the borders of the skull defect as an alternative to the removed cranial bone. The designing of the cranial implant is a challenging task and involves several steps: (1) obtaining the 3D imaging data of the skull with defect from CT or MRI, (2) converting the 3D imaging data into 3D mesh model and (3) creating the 3D model of the implant for 3D printing. The last step usually requires expensive commercial software, which clinical institutions often have limited access to. Researchers have been working on CAD software as alternative to the commercial software for the designing of cranial implant whereas these approaches still involve human interaction, which is time-consuming and requires expertise of the specific medical domain. Therefore, a fast and automatic design of cranial implants is highly desired, which also enables in Operation Room (in OR) manufacturing of the implants for the patient. Centered around the topic, our challenge provides 200 healthy skulls acquired from CT scans in clinical routine and seeks data-driven approaches for the problem. We inject artificial defects into each healthy skull to create training pairs. The datasets are split into a training set and a testing set, each containing 100 healthy skulls and their corresponding skulls with artificial defects. Participants are expected to design algorithms (such as deep learning) based on these training pairs for an automatic cranial defect restoration and implant generation. In this sense, the problem is being formulated as a 3D volumetric shape completion task where a defected skull volume is automatically completed by the algorithm from the participants. The restored defect, which is in fact the implant we want, can be obtained by the subtraction of the defected skull from the completed skull. The implants reconstructed from the skulls with the artificial defects will be quantitatively evaluated using the Dice Similarity Score (DSC) and the Hausdorff Distance (HD).

Myocardial pathology segmentation

description: This is the challenge design document for the "Multi-sequence CMR based myocardial pathology segmentation challenge", accepted for MICCAI 2020. Assessment of myocardial viability is essential in the diagnosis and treatment management for patients suffering from myocardial infarction (MI). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is particularly used to provide imaging anatomical and functional information of heart, such as the late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) CMR sequence which visualizes MI, the T2-weighted CMR which images the acute injury and ischemic regions, and the balanced-Steady State Free Precession (bSSFP) cine sequence which captures cardiac motions and presents clear boundaries. Combining these multi-sequence CMR data can provide rich and reliable information as well as morphological information of the myocardium.
 The target of this challenge is combining multi-sequence CMR data to segment each position of the myocardium into different pathologies, including normal myocardium, infarction and edema. This is referred to as the myocardium pathology classification/segmentation, which is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment management of patients. This is, however, still arduous, particularly due to the pathological myocardium. Since manual delineation is generally time-consuming, tedious and subjects to inter- and intra-observer variations, automating this segmentation is highly desired in clinical practice.
 The proposed challenge will provide the three sequence CMR images from 45 patients [1, 2], for developing novel algorithms that can segment myocardial pathology combining the complementary information from these threesequence CMR images. The challenge presents an open and fair platform for various research groups to test and validate their methods on these datasets acquired from the clinical environment. The aim of the challenge will not only be to benchmark various myocardial pathology segmentation algorithms, but also to cover the topic of general cardiac image segmentation, registration and modeling, and raise discussions for further technical development and clinical deployment.

description: In this article we propose methodology for inference of binary-valued adjacency matrices from various measures of the strength of association between pairs of network nodes, or more generally pairs of variables. This strength of association can be quantified by sample covariance and correlation matrices, and more generally by test-statistics and hypothesis test p-values from arbitrary distributions. Community detection methods such as block modeling typically require binary-valued adjacency matrices as a starting point. Hence, a main motivation for the methodology we propose is to obtain binary-valued adjacency matrices from such pairwise measures of strength of association between variables. The proposed methodology is applicable to large high-dimensional data sets and is based on computationally efficient algorithms. We illustrate its utility in a range of contexts and data sets.

description: LiDAR has become a common means for providing area-based estimates of forest attributes. An important, yet understudied, factor influencing forest attribute estimation is the prediction cell size. In this analysis, the influence of 6 prediction cell sizes (2-, 4-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-m squares) and 2 prediction methods (parametric vs. nonparametric) on LiDAR-derived, area-based, stand- and forest-level estimates of total volume at 2 separate locations in the Acadian Forest were evaluated and compared to field-based measurements. Statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) were observed between the field-based and some of the LiDAR-derived volumes. The stand-level percent differences between the various cell sizes ranged from < 0.1 to >38%, and were generally greatest at the 2 extreme cell sizes examined (2 m and 100 m). At the forest-level, all LiDAR-estimates were within the 95% confidence interval for the ground-based estimate, except for a few values from smaller cell sizes. There was also a general trend of smaller cell sizes producing lower values of volume, whereas larger cell sizes tended to give higher estimates. Overall, this study highlights the importance cell size influence on stand- and forest-level estimates and indicates that additional work is needed to better understand the trends identified in this analysis.

description: Objective: Little is known about the long-term efficacious and economic impacts of universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS). Design: An analytical Markov decision model was framed with two screening strategies: UNHS with transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) test and automatic acoustic brainstem response (aABR) test against no screening. By estimating intervention and long-term costs on treatment and productivity losses and the utility of life years determined by the status of hearing loss, we computed base-case estimates of the incremental cost–utility ratios (ICURs). The scattered plot of ICUR and acceptability curve was used to assess the economic results of aABR versus TEOAE or both versus no screening. Study sample: A hypothetical cohort of 200,000 Taiwanese newborns. Results: TEOAE and aABR dominated over no screening strategy (ICUR = $-4800.89 and $-4111.23, indicating less cost and more utility). Given $20,000 of willingness to pay (WTP), the probability of being cost-effective of aABR against TEOAE was up to 90%. Conclusions: UNHS for hearing loss with aABR is the most economic option and supported by economically evidence-based evaluation from societal perspective.

description: Arsenic contamination in groundwater has been reported in the Jianghan Plain of China since 2005, yet little is known about the microbial communities involved in As mobilization in this area, especially the dissimilatory arsenate-reducing bacteria (DARB) communities. Here, we conducted a cultivation-independent investigation on core sediments collected from a region with arsenic-contaminated groundwater in the Jianghan Plain to reveal the total bacteria and DARB community structures. Highly diverse As-resistant bacteria communities were found from sediment samples via high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA genes. Notably, we identified 27 unique arrA gene (encoding the alpha subunit of dissimilatory arsenate reductase) phylotypes, none of which was related to any previously described arrA gene sequence. This suggests a novel and unique DARB community in the sediments of the Jianghan Plain and expands our knowledge about the distribution and diversity of this group of bacteria in natural environments. Moreover, RDA and CCA demonstrated that total bacterial communities and specific functional groups are controlled by different environmental factors. Specifically, sediment pH, NH4+, total nitrogen, total Fe, total organic carbon and total phosphorus were the key factors driving total bacterial community compositions, while As significantly shaped DARB community structures. This report is the first to describe DARB communities and their correlation with environmental factors in Jianghan Plain sediments, which could give us clues about the origin of the arsenic contamination of groundwater in this region.

description: Nitrification represents one of the key steps in the global nitrogen cycle. While originally considered an exclusive metabolic capability of bacteria, the identification of the Thaumarchaeota revealed that ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are also important contributors to this process, particularly in acidic environments. Nonetheless, the relative contribution of AOA to global nitrification remains difficult to ascertain, particularly in underexplored neutrophilic and alkalinophilic terrestrial systems. In this study we examined the contribution of AOA to nitrification within alkaline (pH 8.3–8.7) cave environments using quantitative PCR, crenarchaeol lipid identification and measurement of potential nitrification rates. Our results showed that AOA outnumber ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) by up to four orders of magnitude in cave sediments. The dominance of Thaumarchaeota in the archaeal communities was confirmed by both archaeal 16S rRNA gene clone library and membrane lipid analyses, while potential nitrification rates suggest that Thaumarchaeota may contribute up to 100% of ammonia oxidation in these sediments. Phylogenetic analysis of Thaumarchaeota amoA gene sequences demonstrated similarity to amoA clones across a range of terrestrial habitats, including acidic ecosystems. These data suggest that despite the alkaline conditions within the cave, the low NH3 concentrations measured continue to favor growth of AOA over AOB populations. In addition to providing important information regarding niche differentiation within Thaumarchaeota, these data may provide important clues as to the factors that have historically led to nitrate accumulation within cave sediments.

description: This is the challenge design document for the "The PANDA challenge: Prostate cANcer graDe Assessment using the Gleason grading system", accepted for MICCAI 2020. With 1.1 million new diagnoses every year, prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in men in developed countries. The biopsy Gleason grading system is the most important prognostic marker for prostate cancer but suffers from significant inter-observer variability, limiting its usefulness for individual patients. The Gleason grade is determined by pathologists on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained tissue specimens based on the architectural growth patterns of the tumor.
 Automated deep learning systems have shown promise in accurately grading prostate cancer. Several studies have shown that these systems can achieve pathologist-level performance. A large multi-center evaluation on diagnostic data is still missing. In this challenge, we strive to improve on these works by publishing the most extensive multi-center dataset on Gleason grading as of yet. The training set consists of up to 11.000 whole-slide images of digitized H&E-stained biopsies originating from two centers. This is the largest public whole-slide image dataset available, roughly 8 times the size of the CAMELYON17 challenge. Furthermore, in contrast to previous challenges, we do not use small tissue micro-arrays, but full diagnostic biopsy images. Using a sizeable multicenter test set, graded by expert uropathologists, we will evaluate challenge submissions on their applicability to a clinically relevant task

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Despite the need for more metadata, and the continued and growing use of PDF as a distribution format, a disconnect remains between content publishers and content users. In reviewing the growing chasm between scholarly publishing and the needs of readers, Pettifer et al., (2011) notes that even though PDF is the format of choice for an overwhelming majority of downloaded scholarly content, attempts to extract meaning from PDFs as they are currently used is similar to trying to turn a hamburger back into a cow.

The purpose of this study is to compare the bibliographic metadata harvesting capabilities of two reference management systems: Mendeley and ProQuest Flow. Secondary research questions are related to the availability of XMP metadata in published scholarly material, and whether this has any impact on metadata extraction. The sections of this paper examine the literature related to attempts to extract PDF metadata using automated harvesting technologies and the role of reference management systems in PDF organization for individual researchers. The next section details the research methodology, data analysis, and results, followed by a discussion of the research findings. The results of this study speak to the capabilities of individual researchers, without the benefit of large-scale extraction tools, to properly harvest metadata for their own purposes using platforms like Mendeley and ProQuest Flow

description: Purpose: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of physician-diagnosed and registered chronic hepatitis C (CHC), and to estimate the reported frequencies of Charlson comorbidities compared with matched comparators from the general population. Materials and methods: Patients were identified according to ICD codes for CHC in the Swedish National Patient Register (1997–2013). Prevalence was estimated according to different patient identification algorithms and for different subgroups. Charlson comorbidities were ascertained from the same register and compared with age/sex/county of residence matched general population comparators. Results: A total of 34,633 individuals with physician-diagnosed CHC were alive in Sweden in 2013 (mean age, 49 years; 64% men), corresponding to a physician-diagnosed prevalence of 0.36%. The prevalence varied by case definition (0.22%-0.36%). The estimate dropped to 0.14% for monitored CHC disease (defined as ≥1 CHC-related visit in 2013). Overall, 41.3% of the CHC patients had ≥1 physician-registered Charlson comorbidity; the most common was liver diseases (22.1%). Compared with matched comparators from the general population (n = 171,338), patients with CHC had more physician-diagnosed and registered diseases such as chronic pulmonary disease (10.2% vs. 4.0%), diabetes (10.6% vs. 5.5%) and liver-related cancer (1.3% vs. 0.2%; all p Conclusion: The physician-diagnosed prevalence of CHC was slightly lower than previously reported estimates, and varied by case definition. The additional comorbidities observed in the CHC group should be taken into consideration, as these comorbidities add to the disease burden.

description: The host–guest complexation between a novel guest namely; 2-(4-pyridinylbenzothiazolyl) ethane, PBE and β-cyclodextrin was studied using steady-state absorption and emission techniques. The fluorescence maximum is strongly blue-shifted with a great enhancement in the fluorescence intensity upon addition of β-CD, confirming the formation of inclusion complexes. The solid inclusion complex between PBE and β-CD has been prepared, characterised using FT-IR, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope techniques. PBE is encapsulated with β-CD nanocavity and 1:1 PBE–β-CD host–guest interaction is identified. This is confirmed using semi-empirical quantum chemical calculations. PBE guest entered into the less polar cavity through the benzothiazole moiety. The negative values of enthalpy and free energy changes suggest that the encapsulation process is thermodynamically favourable. Additionally, the fluorescence is more sensitive to the micellar medium, whether it was cationic, anionic or neutral as well as metal ions like, Li+, Cu2+ and Fe3+. Finally, the antimicrobial activities of PBE guest and its inclusion complex with β-CD host are studied.

description: Knowledge of the volumetric or pressure–volume–temperature (PVT) profile of molten polymers is important for both engineering and polymer physics. Ihm–Song–Mason (ISM) equation of state (EOS) has been employed to predict the volumetric properties of 12 molten polymers. The significance of the present paper is three temperature-dependent parameters of the ISM EOS to be determined using corresponding states correlations based on the molecular scaling constants, dispersive energy parameters between segments/monomers (ε) and segment diameter (σ) rather than bulk properties, e.g. the liquid density and temperature both at normal boiling point. The ability of the ISM EOS has been evaluated by comparing the results with 1390 literature datapoints for the specific volumes over the temperature range from 293 to 603.5 K and pressure range from 0.1 to 200 MPa. The average absolute deviation (AAD) of the calculated specific volumes from literature data was found to be 0.52%. The isothermal compressibility coefficients, κT values of molten polymers have also been predicted using the ISM EOS. From 684 datapoints examined, the AAD of estimated κT was equal to 7.55%. Our calculations on the volumetric and thermodynamic properties of studied polymers reproduce the literature data with reasonably good accuracy.
