Segmentation of hip cartilage in compositional magnetic resonance imaging: A fast, accurate, reproducible, and clinically viable semi‐automated methodology by Fernquest, S, Park, D, Marcan, M, Palmer, A, Voiculescu, I, Glyn-Jones, S

“…We produced a semi-automated segmentation method for cartilage segmentation of hip MRI sequences consisting of a two step process: (1) fully automated hierarchical partitioning of the data volume generated using a bespoke segmentation approach applied recursively, followed by (2) user selection of the regions of interest using a region editor. …”

The lognormal lung: A new approach to quantifying lung inhomogeneity in COPD by Smith, N, Magor-Elliott, S, Fullerton, C, Couper, J, Richmond, G, Hancock, G, Ritchie, G, Talbot, N, Petousi, N

“…The technique, which combines highly accurate measurement of respiratory gas exchange using a bespoke molecular flow sensor and a mechanistic mathematical model of the lung, provides new indices of lung function: the parameters σCL, σCd, and σVD represent the standard deviations of distributions for alveolar compliance, anatomical deadspace and vascular conductance relative to lung volume, respectively. …”

'This cloud had been written upon': Investigating digital editing methods for Anne Bathurst's visionary writing by Trowsdale, E

“…</p> <p>The questions at the heart of this dissertation are whether the physical or the mystical can be captured by any pre-existing digital methodology, whether creating a bespoke methodology is worthwhile to this field and whether mystical objects should be digitised at all. …”

A signature-based machine learning model for distinguishing bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder by Arribas, I, Goodwin, G, Geddes, J, Lyons, T, Saunders, K

“…In this study, 130 participants with bipolar disorder (n = 48) or borderline personality disorder (n = 31) and healthy volunteers (n = 51) completed daily mood ratings using a bespoke smartphone app for up to 1 year. A signature-based learning method was used to capture the evolving interrelationships between the different elements of mood and exploit this information to classify participants’ diagnosis and to predict subsequent mood. …”
