Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
One of the most important parameters of sagittal pelvic alignment is the pelvic incidence (PI), which is commonly measured from sagittal X-ray images of the pelvis as the angle between the line connecting the midpoint of the femoral head centers with the center of the sacral endplate, and the line orthogonal to the sacral endplate. In this paper, we present the results of a fully automated measurement of PI from X-ray images that is based on the deep learning technologies. In each sagittal X-ray image of the pelvis, regions of interest (sacral endplate and both femoral heads) are first automatically defined, and then landmarks are detected within these regions, i.e. the anterior edge, the center and the posterior edge of the sacral endplate that define the line of the sacral endplate inclination, and the centers of both femoral heads with the corresponding midpoint representing the hip axis. From the hip axis, and the line along the sacral endplate and its center, PI is computed. Measurements were performed on X-ray pelvic images from 38 subjects (15 males/23 females; mean age 71.1 years), and statistical analysis of reference manual and fully automated measurements revealed a relatively good agreement, with the mean absolute difference ± standard deviation of 5.1±4.4∘ and Pearson correlation coefficient of R=0.82 (p-value below 10 ), with the paired t-test revealing no statistically significant differences (p-value above 0.05). The differences between reference manual and fully automated measurements were within the repeatability and reliability of manual measurements, indicating that PI can be accurately determined by the proposed fully automated approach.
