| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to a method and system (100, 120) for quantitative and semi-quantitative modeling of biological and physiological systems using image data. More specifically, the system utilizes time-series image data (101, 102, 103) to improve forecasting the spatiotemporal evolution of a given biological or physiological system. Furthermore, in accordance with another aspect of the invention, the quality of experimentally acquired images can be improved by using a simulation model to eliminate noise and measurement errors from the acquired image data. Finally, in accordance with another aspect of the invention, certain undamped random disturbances in a biological or physiological system can be detected and tracked by applying a fading-memory filter to acquired time-series data and predictions of the time series using a simulation model that takes into account underlying physiological, chemical or biological variables.</p> |
