We will analyze multiple modality neuroimaging data with AdvancedNormalization Tools (ANTs) version >= 2.1 1. ANTs has proven performance inlifespan analyses of brain morphology [1] and function [2] in bothadult [1] and pediatric brain data [2,5,6] including infants [7].ANTs employs both probabilistic tissue segmentation (via Atropos [3])and machine learning methods based on expert labeled data (via jointlabel fusion [4]) in order to maximize reliability and consistency ofmultiple modality image segmentation. These methods allow detailedextraction of critical image-based biomarkers such as volumes(e.g. hippocampus and amygdala), cortical thickness and area andconnectivity metrics derived from structural white matter [13] orfunctional connectivity [12]. Critically, all ANTs components arecapable of leveraging multivariate image features as well as expertknowledge in order to learn the best segmentation strategy availablefor each individual image [3,4]. This flexibility in segmentation andthe underlying high-performance normalization methods have beenvalidated by winning several internationally recognized medical imageprocessing challenges conducted within the premier conferences withinthe field and published in several accompanying articles[8][9][10][11].

Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTS) is an ITK-based suite of normalization, segmentation and template-building tools for quantitative morphometric analysis. Many of the ANTS registration tools are diffeomorphic, but deformation (elastic and BSpline) transformations are available. Unique components of ANTS include multivariate similarity metrics, landmark guidance, the ability to use label images to guide the mapping and both greedy and space-time optimal implementations of diffeomorphisms. The symmetric normalization (SyN) strategy is a part of the ANTS toolkit as is directly manipulated free form deformation (DMFFD).

MRTrix is a set of tools to perform various types of diffusion MRI analyses, from variousforms of tractography through to next-generation group-level analyses(MRTrix3, and the deprecatedMRTrix version 2).

On December 16, 2015, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) determined it was appropriate to raise the effective federal funds rate from the 0 to 25 basis point range it had been set at since late 2008. This note highlights where some of the key elements of the FOMC's approach to policy normalization are reported on the Federal Reserve's website. Specifically, this note focuses on the interest on excess reserves (IOER) rate, excess reserve balances, and interest expense on excess reserves. This note also identifies where information can be found on the overnight reverse repurchase agreement (ON RRP) offering rate and the associated Federal Reserve balances and interest expense.

IOER and reserve balances

The FOMC has stated that the IOER rate will be a primary tool during the normalization period.3 Depository institutions should be unwilling to lend to any private counterparty at a rate lower than the rate they can earn on balances maintained at the Federal Reserve. As a result, an increase in the IOER rate will put upward pressure on a range of short-term interest rates. In effect, raising the IOER rate allows the Federal Reserve to increase the value that depository institutions place on reserve balances, which will have market effects similar to those associated with a reduction in the quantity of reserves in the traditional, quantity-based mechanism for tightening the stance of monetary policy.4 The IOER rate paid on excess reserve balances can be found on the Board of Governors' "Interest on Required Balances and Excess Balances" page. Although the Federal Reserve pays interest on required reserves (IORR) in addition to IOER, the marginal return of an additional dollar of reserves to a depository institution is the IOER rate given the large amount of excess reserves in the System.

In biomedical natural language processing, named entity recognition (NER) and named entity normalization (NEN) are key tasks that enable the automatic extraction of biomedical entities (e.g. diseases and drugs) from the ever-growing biomedical literature. In this article, we present BERN2 (Advanced Biomedical Entity Recognition and Normalization), a tool that improves the previous neural network-based NER tool by employing a multi-task NER model and neural network-based NEN models to achieve much faster and more accurate inference. We hope that our tool can help annotate large-scale biomedical texts for various tasks such as biomedical knowledge graph construction.

Abstract In biomedical natural language processing, named entity recognition (NER) and named entity normalization (NEN) are key tasks that enable the automatic extraction of biomedical entities (e.g., diseases and chemicals) from the ever-growing biomedical literature. In this paper, we present BERN2 (Advanced Biomedical Entity Recognition and Normalization), a tool that improves the previous neural network-based NER tool (Kim et al., 2019) by employing a multi-task NER model and neural network-based NEN models to achieve much faster and more accurate inference. We hope that our tool can help annotate large-scale biomedical texts more accurately for various tasks such as biomedical knowledge graph construction.

Longitudinal studies of development and disease in the human brain have motivated the acquisition of large neuroimaging data sets and the concomitant development of robust methodological and statistical tools for quantifying neurostructural changes. Longitudinal-specific strategies for acquisition and processing have potentially significant benefits including more consistent estimates of intra-subject measurements while retaining predictive power. Using the first phase of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI-1) data, comprising over 600 subjects with multiple time points from baseline to 36 months, we evaluate the utility of longitudinal FreeSurfer and Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTs) surrogate thickness values in the context of a linear mixed-effects (LME) modeling strategy. Specifically, we estimate the residual variability and between-subject variability associated with each processing stream as it is known from the statistical literature that minimizing the former while simultaneously maximizing the latter leads to greater scientific interpretability in terms of tighter confidence intervals in calculated mean trends, smaller prediction intervals, and narrower confidence intervals for determining cross-sectional effects. This strategy is evaluated over the entire cortex, as defined by the Desikan-Killiany-Tourville labeling protocol, where comparisons are made with the cross-sectional and longitudinal FreeSurfer processing streams. Subsequent linear mixed effects modeling for identifying diagnostic groupings within the ADNI cohort is provided as supporting evidence for the utility of the proposed ANTs longitudinal framework which provides unbiased structural neuroimage processing and competitive to superior power for longitudinal structural change detection.

In 2019, the Trump administration invoked an emergency procedure to proceed with an $8 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia and the UAE without congressional notification. When a bipartisan Senate vote advanced a resolution blocking the sale, Trump vetoed it and pushed the sale forward.

To evaluate the performance of rigid vs non-rigid motion correction approach, iterative k-t PCA and k-t SLR were performed using non-rigid registration and a non-linear conjugate gradient solver. Non-rigid k-t PCA reconstruction was performed using iterative k-t PCA as described above. Non-rigid registration was performed by Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTs) using symmetric normalization including affine and deformable transformation, with mutual information as optimization metric [32]. For non-rigid k-t SLR, the low rank constraint was enforced on the non-rigid motion corrected data. These approaches were chosen to be able to directly compare k-t PCA and k-t SLR with rigid registration approaches. Images were also reconstructed using k-t FOCUSS [33, 34] which is a compressed sensing technique which uses a motion-estimation motion-correction strategy. The key-frame was derived from the temporal averaged data.

The probe annotation file contains the functional annotation and cell profiling associations for the genes in the panel. This .csv file can be updated or modified by the user to accommodate custom analysis or the inclusion of annotations for Panel Plus genes in the advanced analysis report. Where associations exist for a single gene, they are delimited by semicolons in the probe annotation field. The user may need to upload a probe annotation file in the instance that the annotations are not built into the advanced analysis software or when the user desires to customize the analysis with a modified probe annotation file. e24fc04721
