Medical Image Segmentation using Deep Learning approaches (Transformers in Medical Segmentation)

December 15, 2022 @ 2:30 pm4:00 pm

Abstract

Dr. Kumar Rajamani is Senior Manager Algorithm at KLA Tencor.

Medical Image Segmentation is a challenging area of research where Deep Learning algorithms have shown lot of success in recent times.

In this talk, we would get an introduction to Deep Learning based segmentation of Medical images. A brief overview of UNets would be covered tointroduce the audience to segmentation architectures.The second part of the talk would be on Attention mechanism.  Attention mechanism has revolutionized Deep Learning algorithms, especially inNLP domain and more recently in Computer Vision tasks.In this talk, after a brief introduction to attention blocks (from NLP context) we start with some of the attention approachesor computer vision tasks. We dive in more detail on couple of attention blocks – criss-cross attention and attention-augmented-convolution.Some of the active frontiers in attention blocks (deformable attention) would be finally discussed to give some insights on currentresearch directions.

 

Brief profile is as below
