  1. Correlation between measured and CNN-estimated Aβ CL values for training (n = 109), validation (n = 12) and test (n = 13) datasets, shown before and after removal of salient clusters. The original R2 values before the occlusion were 0.97, 0.96 and 0.79 for training, validation and test datasets, respectively.
