An adaptive MR-CT registration method for MRI-guided prostate cancer radiotherapy.

Magnetic Resonance images (MRI) have superior soft tissue contrast compared with CT images. Therefore, MRI might be a better imaging modality to differentiate the prostate from surrounding normal organs. Methods to accurately register MRI to simulation CT images are essential, as we transition the use of MRI into the routine clinic setting.

The prediction of bacterial transcription start sites using SVMs.

Identifying promoters is the key to understanding gene expression in bacteria. Promoters lie in tightly constrained positions relative to the transcription start site (TSS). In this paper, we address the problem of predicting transcription start sites in Escherichia coli.
