In search of relevant things: A novel approach for image analysis. This project aims to investigate how experts’ cognitive processes may be transferred to computers for the automatic recognition of visual features. By merging computer and brain sciences, the project will characterise the way the brains of experts understand what is seen, in order to translate such a process in a new computer vision tool. This should provide significant benefits, such as automatic detection of threats or diseases ....In search of relevant things: A novel approach for image analysis. This project aims to investigate how experts’ cognitive processes may be transferred to computers for the automatic recognition of visual features. By merging computer and brain sciences, the project will characterise the way the brains of experts understand what is seen, in order to translate such a process in a new computer vision tool. This should provide significant benefits, such as automatic detection of threats or diseases in satellite and diagnostic imaging, respectively, among other applications. For the first time, the combination of how a computer analyses an image and how an expert interprets it will be used as a common language to enable machines to process visual information in a manner that mimics the way human brains do.Read moreRead less

Summary
Discriminative detection and quantification of cancer imaging biomarkers. This project aims to develop a new framework for the detection and quantification of cancer biomarkers in diagnostic and histopathology images with discriminative modelling of intrinsic structures. The framework will be the first computerised solution to provide automated, quantitative annotations of cancer imaging biomarkers at the macroscopic and microscopic levels to support standardised reporting of image interpretatio ....Discriminative detection and quantification of cancer imaging biomarkers. This project aims to develop a new framework for the detection and quantification of cancer biomarkers in diagnostic and histopathology images with discriminative modelling of intrinsic structures. The framework will be the first computerised solution to provide automated, quantitative annotations of cancer imaging biomarkers at the macroscopic and microscopic levels to support standardised reporting of image interpretation. It will help to alleviate the inter-observer variability and time-consuming process of manual analysis. The project aims to advance fundamental biomedical imaging research in generalised visual structure extraction and classification, and enable large-scale translational research in systems pathology for personalised cancer care.Read moreRead less
