The multimodal brain tumor image segmentation benchmark (BRATS)

…, HC Shin, J Shotton, CA Silva… - IEEE transactions on …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we report the set-up and results of the Multimodal Brain Tumor Image
Segmentation Benchmark (BRATS) organized in conjunction with the MICCAI 2012 and 2013 …

Brain tumor segmentation using convolutional neural networks in MRI images

…, A Pinto, V Alves, CA Silva - IEEE transactions on …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Among brain tumors, gliomas are the most common and aggressive, leading to a very short
life expectancy in their highest grade. Thus, treatment planning is a key stage to improve the …

Mapping global forest canopy height through integration of GEDI and Landsat data

…, A Pickens, S Turubanova, H Tang, CE Silva… - Remote Sensing of …, 2021 - Elsevier

Role of intermolecular coupling in the photophysics of disordered organic semiconductors: aggregate emission in regioregular polythiophene

J Clark, C Silva, RH Friend, FC Spano - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
We address the role of excitonic coupling on the nature of photoexcitations in the
conjugated polymer regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene). By means of temperature-dependent …

H-and J-aggregate behavior in polymeric semiconductors

FC Spano, C Silva - Annual review of physical chemistry, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Aggregates of conjugated polymers exhibit two classes of fundamental electronic interactions:
those occurring within a given chain and those occurring between chains. The impact of …

Multi-phase semicrystalline microstructures drive exciton dissociation in neat plastic semiconductors

…, J Rivnay, A Salleo, N Stingelin, C Silva - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2013 - arxiv.org
The optoelectronic properties of macromolecular semiconductors depend fundamentally on
their solid-state microstructure. For example, the molecular-weight distribution influences …

Determining exciton bandwidth and film microstructure in polythiophene films using linear absorption spectroscopy

…, JF Chang, FC Spano, RH Friend, C Silva - Applied Physics …, 2009 - pubs.aip.org
We analyze the linear absorption spectrum of regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene) films
spun from a variety of solvents to probe directly the film microstructure and how it depends on …
