Automatic detection of the circle of Willis in neuro-images using multi-scale gradient calculation and knowledge-based genetic algorithms. Stroke is the third most common cause of death and a major contributor to long term disability in Australia. The most efficient way of preventing stroke from happening is to detect related symptoms early. The group of cerebral blood vessels that closely related to strokes is the circle of Willis (CoW). We build a system that can automatically detect and quan ....Automatic detection of the circle of Willis in neuro-images using multi-scale gradient calculation and knowledge-based genetic algorithms. Stroke is the third most common cause of death and a major contributor to long term disability in Australia. The most efficient way of preventing stroke from happening is to detect related symptoms early. The group of cerebral blood vessels that closely related to strokes is the circle of Willis (CoW). We build a system that can automatically detect and quantify CoW in neuroimages, providing ways of preventing strokes from happening. The project will enhance Australia¡¯s leading position in promoting and maintaining good health, especially in preventive healthcare.Read moreRead less
Intelligent Image Processing Techniques for Novel Biomarker Discovery. This project will make an impact on Australia's international research profile by seeking a solution to a worldwide challenging problem in biomarker discovery for the detection of diseases at an early stage which requires the incorporation of the skills and knowledge from biology, medicine, engineering, computer science, and information technology. The successful outcomes of this research will make an impact on Australia's e ....Intelligent Image Processing Techniques for Novel Biomarker Discovery.
