Talk by Dr. Benjamin Renoust (Senior Data Scientist, Data and Knowledge Coordination Manager at Median Technologies)
From Clinical Data to AI based SaMD
Venue: Room W2-547 (Building West Zone 2), time: Wednesday November 1st 17:00
Abstract
The aim of this session is to provide insights into the long and complex development of an AI based medical imaging software as a medical device. We will start with a presentation of Median technologies and its two complementary business units iBiopsy and iCRO. After giving an overview of the medical products iBiopsy is currently working on, we will detail the data workflow and its potential pitfalls in the scope of the medical software development from sourcing, quality control, annotation to AI model. The presentation will include aspects of data preparation conducted during internships at Median, and it will end with an overview of the Lung Cancer Screening product. The remaining time shall be used to answer remaining questions.
Talk by Prof. Vincent Nozick
An introduction to Geometric Algebra for computer sciences with no equation
Venue: Room TBA (Building West Zone 2), time: Friday April 14th 16:30
Abstract
Thank you for reading this abstract. For real, there will be many equations but please come to my presentation, I will do my best to make it easy to follow. Geometric algebras can be understood as a set of very intuitive tools to represent, construct and manipulate geometric objects. This talk is an introduction to the domain, and thus no mathematical background is required. Moreover, this presentation aims to keep all concepts as simple and intuitive as possible. The plan of the talk will follow this guideline: first introduce the main concepts of geometric algebra such as outer product, geometric product or multivectors. Then I will present some specific algebras that find applications in computer sciences. Then I will introduce some geometric transformations that generalise quaternions and dual quaternions on these objects.
About Vincent
Vincent Nozick get his PhD in 2006 at Universite Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallee (France) at the Laboratoire d'Informatique Gaspard Monge (LIGM). In 2006, he has been laureate of a Lavoisier fellowship for a post-doc position at Prof. Hideo Saito laboratory, Keio University. Then, he was hired as a tenured "maitre de conferences" at Universite Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallee (France) from 2008. He served as the head master of the Imac engineer school from 2011 to 2013. From 2016 to 2018, he get a sabbatical at Japanese French Laboratory for Informatics (JFLI) at the National Institute of Informatics, Keio University and the University of Tokyo. In addition to computer vision applications, his current researches focus on both digital image forensics and geometric algebra.
Prof. Vincent Nozick, from Gustave Eiffel University (France) will visit the lab from April 10th to April 14th 2023!
Prof. Joao Paulo do Monte Lima, from Univ. Pernambuco (Brazil) will visit the lab from March 4th to May 4th 2023!
Our application to the JSPS Invitational Fellowship was acepted. Professor Joao Paulo do Monte Lima, from University Federal de Pernambuco, Brazil will come to the lab for 2 months. We will do research on Multi-Camera 3D Pedestrian Detection with Domain Adaptation and Generalization.
