Challenges for machine learning using medical data

Tuesday 4th October 2022 17:00 – 18:00 CEST

 

Lecture by Prof. Henning Müller online

Abstract

Medical imaging is currently one of the areas where much machine learning is done both on the academic side and from startup or larger established companies. With standardized acquisition setups and image views and also clear applications (diagnosis, treatment planning) this seems suitable but also has several difficulties, such as varying acquisition parameters, changing imaging equipment, but also limited data and particularly missing annotations with clinicians being chronically overloaded. This presentation highlights some of the challenges and partial solutions that we are currently working on to address these challenges.
