DOCTORAL THESIS: Automatic segmentation of brain structures in magnetic resonance images using deep learning techniques

By Kaisar Kushibar Supervised by Dr. Sergi Valverde / Dr. Arnau Oliver / Dr. Xavier Lladó   Abstract The sub-cortical brain structures are located beneath the cerebral cortex and in- clude the thalamus, caudate, putamen, pallidum, hippocampus, amygdala, and ac- cumbens structures. These bilateral structures – symmetrically located within the left and right hemispheres – are involved in systematic activities such as emotion, pleasure, memory and hormone production. Their deviations in…

TWIN roBOTs for cooperative underwater intervention missions

TWINBOT is a project that aims to develop a new kind of I-AUVs able to work autonomously in a cooperative way.   The underwater inspection, maintenance and repair operations are becoming the main focus of the research in underwater robotics. Due to the desire of using small, autonomous vehicles instead of heavy work-class remotely operated vehicles, these tasks need a new definition and approach, to overcome the limits of the…

ViCOROB presented Artificial Intelligence in Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Profound improvements have been introduced by artificial intelligence techniques in general, and deep learning in specific, to the medical image processing and analysis field in the last decade. That was due to the surge of data availability derived from internet spread and social media. One aspect of AI is referred to as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), which in turn has several kinds including Generative Adversarial Neural Networks (GAN). Based on…
