Applying deep learning and #Tensorflow to improve brain #MRI images quality

Taking brain MRI images is complicated procedure as the orientation, location, and coverage needs to be correct in all three spatial dimentsions. The quality and consistency of positioning and orientation of the slices relies heavily on the skill and experience of the scan operator. This process can be time-consuming and difficult, especially for complex anatomies. As a result, there can be inconsistencies from scan operator to scan operator. This lack of consistency can make the job of the radiologist in interpreting these images more difficult especially when a patient is being scanned as a follow up to previous MRI exam and they are trying to identify subtle changes in anatomy or disease progression over time.

The researchers from GE Healthcare Magnetic Resonance Imaging team developed an approach to aid the scan operator. The approach is based on 3 deep neural networks, can be adopted to take MRI images of the other body parts and achieves 99.2% accuracy score. The researchers notice that Tensorflow significantly helped them to develop and deliver the approach to the production.

Using AI image recognition to find out about you and sell you even more stuff

Apparently Snapchat, Facebook, Apple are all filed patents for it and using such AI can find out how you react to certain things. Eventually this will be used to steal your reactions (secretly) and personal data.

That's really creepy.

Amazing short video explaining on real life example how it all works:

Bug Fix:= A lot

New Feature:= Code Night


Denoscription:= We will have a code night every first saturday night of each month[ The whole night]. So we are hoping that >75% of us have some opening time on Saturday night. Assuming that, we will have a challenge each day. The problem domain will be given 1 hr before the challenge begins. The purpose of this program is to upgrade the skill of our community members. More information will be provided soon.


Please submit an issue in the discussion group.
