报告内容简介:

To usher in a new era of Precision Medicine, imaging is playing an increasingly significant role, with its superior capability of phenotyping the physical manifestations of disease to establish cohorts and prognosticate responses to treatments and therapies. Meanwhile, this opportunity poses the great challenge of enhancing image processing technology to meet the new demands. Image segmentation is a fundamental problem in biomedical image processing and computer-aided diagnosis.Robust, efficient, and accurate automated segmentation methods are highly desirable for numerous biomedical studies and applications. In this talk, we present effective image segmentation techniques based on enabling graph algorithms for detecting biomedical objects in 3-D and higher dimensional images.The most recent advances are also discussed. In comparison with most known segmentation methods that suffer from their inability to attain globally optimal segmentation or lengthy computation time, our techniques produce, in an efficient manner, segmentation of optimal quality with respect to general cost functions on a wide range of biomedical objects with complex topological structures.Examples and segmentation results on various medical image datasets are shown.

报告人简介:

Xiaodong Wu received the BS and MS degrees both in Computer Science from Peking University, China, in 1992 and 1995, respectively, and the PhD degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Notre Dame in 2002. He is currently a full Professor in the Departments of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Radiation Oncology at the University of Iowa. His research interests are primarily in the areas of computational precision medicine, biomedical imaging, and computer algorithms. He has published over 100 papers in those areas, and holds several US patents on technical inventions for radiation cancer treatment and biomedical imaging. Dr. Wu is a recipient of the prestigious NSF CAREER Award (2009) and the NIH K25 Career Development Award (2007). His research is currently under the support of both NIH and NSF.
