   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Theresia Lundkvist; [2024]
   Keywords : Healthcare Processes; Automation; Design Thinking;

   Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common cancer and 8 700 individuals in Sweden were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2021. Thanks to improved diagnostic methods and more effective treatment, nine out of ten women who develop breast cancer survive. 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

6. 5. Uncertainty Estimation in Radiation Dose Prediction U-Net

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

   Author : Frida Skarf; [2023]
   Keywords : Radiation dose prediction models; U-net; quantile regression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemic uncertainty estimation; aleatoric uncertainty estimation; Stråldospredicerande modeller; U-net; kvantilregression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemisk osäkerhetsskattning; aletorisk osäkerhetsskattning;

   Abstract : The ability to quantify uncertainties associated with neural network predictions is crucial when they are relied upon in decision-making processes, especially in safety-critical applications like radiation therapy. In this paper, a single-model estimator of both epistemic and aleatoric uncertainties in a regression 3D U-net used for radiation dose prediction is presented. READ MORE
