| Abstract [eng] |
In this work we demonstrate how to preprocess MRI data of prostate cancer to get discrete time series. This series are smoothed into functional data by B-splie smoothing and differences are detected between functions for malign tissue and functions for healthy tissue. Classification of the tissues follows biopsy results. By a functional t-test we identify an intervall with statistically significant difference between both groups of functions. |
