Istituzione del Laboratorio di Radiomica presso il Dipartimento di Economia e Management
Con la seduta del Consiglio di Dipartimento di Economia e Management (DEM)
dell’Università di Trento dell’11 maggio 2022 è stato istituito presso il
DEM un laboratorio di radiomica. Il laboratorio si pone come obiettivo
l’applicazione di tecniche avanzate di analisi dei dati in contesti
applicativi di diagnostica medica. In particolare, si intende sviluppare
ed applicare algoritmi di analisi statistica, di machine learning e di
elaborazione e riconoscimento di immagini mediche per la diagnosi precoce
di patologie tumorali. L’iniziativa è stata avviata dal
prof. Giuseppe Espa (DEM, responsabile del Progetto),
dal prof. Massimo Donelli (DICAM)
e dalla dott.ssa Paola Feraco (APSS Trento).

The R package plot3logit has been released on CRAN
Version 1.0.0 of the R package plot3logit has been released on CRAN.
Package plot3logit is an implementation of the ternary plot for
interpreting regression coefficients of trinomial regression models, as
proposed in Santi, Dickson and Espa (2019)
<DOI: 10.1080/00031305.2018.1442368>.
Ternary plots are drawn using either ‘ggtern’ package (based on ‘ggplot2’)
or ‘Ternary’ package (based on standard graphics).
The package can be cited as it follows:
Santi, F., M. M. Dickson and G. Espa (2019) “plot3logit: Ternary Plots for
Trinomial Regression Models”. R package version 1.0.0.
