ABSTRACT:
The field of artificial intelligence (AI) has experienced a revival in recent years, thanks to advancements in software and hardware and the emergence of a set of techniques collectively known as deep learning, which have enabled better-than-human performance in many challenging tasks, including visual object recognition and speech understanding.
One of the richest fields for AI applications is healthcare, where hundreds of companies, from startups to technology behemoths, are working on AI-powered solutions to multiple problems, such as: drug discovery, in-patient care and hospital management, patient data and risk analytics, lifestyle management and monitoring (using wearable devices), mental health, nutrition, and – last, but not least – medical imaging and diagnostics.
In the field of medical image analysis, many recent works by world-renowned research teams have performed at a level comparable to highly trained human experts, prompting questions as to whether (or how soon) such systems could replace the human radiologist. Similar concerns exist in other fields of medicine and healthcare, due to the disruptive potential of AI technologies.
In this seminar I provide an overview of the current state of AI in medicine, with emphasis on the recent impact of increasingly popular deep learning techniques on outstanding problems in medical image analysis.
Outline:
Intended audience and expected background knowledge: students, researchers, and practitioners interested in (medical) image analysis, artificial intelligence and/or machine learning.
