  1. 1. Robustness Analysis of Perfusion Parameter Calculations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alicia Palmér; [2024]
    Keywords : Perfusion; Medical image analysis; Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Tofts model; Functional imaging; Optimization; T1 map; Perfusion; Medicinsk bildanalys; Dynamisk kontrastförstärkt magnetisk resonanstomografibildtagning; Tofts-modell; Funktionell bildbehandling; Optimering; T1 karta;

    Abstract : Cancer is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. When given optimal treatment, however, the risk of severe illness may greatly be reduced. Determining optimal treatment in turn requires evaluation of disease progression and response to potential, previous treatment. READ MORE

  3. 2. Self-Supervised Learning for Tabular Data: Analysing VIME and introducing Mix Encoder

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Max Svensson; [2024]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Self-supervised learning; AI; Physics; Medicine; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We introduce Mix Encoder, a novel self-supervised learning framework for deep tabular data models based on Mixup [1]. Mix Encoder uses linear interpolations of samples with associated pretext tasks to form useful pre-trained representations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Identifying Graph Characteristics in Growing Vascular Networks

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Christopher Finn Plummer; [2024]
    Keywords : Anigogenesis; Vascular Networks; Network Science;

    Abstract : One of the ways that a vascular network grows is through the process of angiogenesis, wherebya new blood vessel forms as a branch from an existing vessel towards an area which isstimulating vascular growth. Due to the demands for nutrients and waste transport, growingtumour cells will access the surrounding vascular network by inducing angiogenesis. READ MORE

  5. 4. Uncertainty Quantification in Deep Learning for Breast Cancer Classification in Point-of-Care Ultrasound Imaging

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Marisa Wodrich; [2024]
    Keywords : Uncertainty quantification; Deep learning; Breast cancer classification; Trustworthy AI; Point-of-care ultrasound; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide with an estimate of 2.3 million new cases in 2020, and the number one cause of cancer-related deaths in women. READ MORE

  6. 5. Virtual H&E Staining Using PLS Microscopy and Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Sally Vizins; Hanna Råhnängen; [2024]
    Keywords : Deep learning; Virtual staining; Skin tissue; Hematoxylin Eosin; H E; Pathology; Carcinoma; Point light source illumination; Neural Networks; GANs; Generative adversarial networks; CNNs; Convolutional neural networks; Relativistic generative adversarial network; Unet; Digital microscopy; Attention-Unet; Dense-Unet; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Histopathological examination, crucial in diagnosing diseases such as cancer, traditionally relies on time- and resource-consuming, poorly standardized chemical staining for tissue visualization. This thesis presents a novel digital alternative using generative neural networks and a point light source (PLS) microscope to transform unstained skin tissue images into their stained counterparts.
