Abstract: Augmented Human Intelligence – The Role of Imaging Biomarkers

Cutting edge imaging technologies have been developed to provide complementary views of the structural, functional and mechanical properties of organs and tumors. This has pushed imaging to an unprecedented opportunity for health monitoring and disease diagnosis. In this talk, I will first present our new algorithm, a joint constraint blob detector using U-Net and Hessian analysis, for small object detection. The algorithm is applied on kidney MR imaging to identify glomerular associated biomarkers for comprehensive and noninvasive evaluation of renal health. Such technique to evaluate the whole donor kidney before transplant is critical to assessing transplant viability and effectively matching transplants to meet the needs of each patients. In the second part of the talk, I will briefly present a few on-going investigations on deep learning and transfer learning for other medical applications. I will end the talk going over my other research efforts in energy domain (building), and the intersection between built environment and well-being.
