Mech Syst Signal Process
February 2023
Due to environmental interference and defects in measured objects, measurement signals are frequently affected by unpredictable noise and periodic defects. Moreover, there is a lack of effective methods for accurately distinguishing defect components from measurement signals. In this study, a distribution-based selective optimisation method (SOM) is proposed to mitigate the effects of noise and defect components.

Methods: A total of 1791 lateral lumbar radiographs were collected through the PACS system and used to develop the deep learning-based model. Landmarks for the four used parameters, including the lumbosacral lordosis angle (LSLA), lumbosacral angle (LSA), sacral horizontal angle (SHA), and sacral inclination angle (SIA), were identified and automatically labeled by the model.
Usually, the optical transition properties of trivalent rare earth (RE) ions in transparent hosts can be quantitatively investigated in the framework of Judd-Ofelt theory. A standard and commonly accepted calculation procedure based on the absorption spectrum has already been established. However, it is hard to assess the optical transition properties of trivalent RE ions doped in powdered and film materials owing to the difficulty in the absolute absorption spectrum measurements.
