Robust Quantification of Microvascular Transit Times via Linear Dynamical Systems using Two-Photon Fluorescence Microscopy Data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Vascular transit time is an important indicator of microcirculatory health. We present a second-order-plus-dead-time (SOPDT) model for robust estimation of kinetic parameters characterizing microvascular bolus passage using two-photon fluorescence microscopy (2PFM) in anesthetized rats receiving somatosensory stimulation. This methodology enables quantification of transit time, time-to-peak, overshoot, and rate of bolus passage through the microvascular network. The overall transit time during stimulation, of 2.2 ± 0.1 seconds, was shorter (P ~ 0.0008) than that at rest (2.7 ± 0.2 seconds). When compared with conventional γ-variate modeling, the SOPDT modeling yielded better quality of fit both at rest (P<0.0001) and on activation (P<0.001).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
