This paper presents a novel sampling scheme on the sphere for obtaining head-related transfer function (HRTF) measurements and accurately computing spherical harmonic transform (SHT). The requires an optimal number of samples, given by degrees freedom in spectral domain, accurate representation HRTF that is band-limited domain. proposed allows samples to be easily taken over due its iso-latitude structure non-dense near poles. In addition, can used when are not from south polar cap region as...

Abstract Diffusion MRI fiber tractography is widely used to probe the structural connectivity of thebrain, with a range applications in both clinical and basic neuroscience. Despite widespread use, has well-known pitfalls that limits anatomical accuracy this technique. Numerous modern methods have been developed address these shortcomings through advances acquisition, modeling, computation. To test whether improve accuracy, we organized ISBI 2018 3D Validation Tractography Experimental...
