    • p-Kernel Stein Variational Gradient Descent for Data Assimilation and History Matching 

      Stordal, Andreas Størksen; Moraes, Rafael J.; Raanes, Patrick N.; Evensen, Geir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      A Bayesian method of inference known as “Stein variational gradient descent” was recently implemented for data assimilation problems, under the heading of “mapping particle filter”. In this manuscript, the algorithm is ...
    • Reducing systematic errors due to deformation of organs at risk in radiotherapy 

      Rørtveit, Øyvind Lunde; Hysing, Liv Bolstad; Stordal, Andreas Størksen; Pilskog, Sara Margareta Cecilia (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Purpose In radiotherapy (RT), the planning CT (pCT) is commonly used to plan the full RT-course. Due to organ deformation and motion, the organ shapes seen at the pCT will not be identical to their shapes during RT. Any ...
