Residual Embedding Similarity-Based Network Selection for Predicting Brain Network Evolution Trajectory from a Single Observation

While existing predictive frameworks are able to handle Euclidean structured data (i.e, brain images), they might fail to generalize to geometric non-Euclidean data such as brain networks. Besides, these are rooted the sample selection step in using Euclidean or learned similarity measure between vectorized training and testing brain networks… Such sample connectomic representation might include irrelevant and redundant features that could mislead the training sample selection step. Undoubtedly, this fails to exploit and preserve the topology of the brain connectome. […]

Anisotropic 3D Multi-Stream CNN for Accurate Prostate Segmentation from Multi-Planar MRI

Background and Objective: Accurate and reliable segmentation of the prostate gland in MR images can support the clinical assessment of prostate cancer, as well as the planning and monitoring of focal and loco-regional therapeutic interventions. Despite the availability of multi-planar MR scans due to standardized protocols, the majority of segmentation approaches presented in the literature consider the axial scans only… Methods: We propose an anisotropic 3D multi-stream CNN architecture, which processes additional scan directions to produce a higher-resolution isotropic prostate […]

KoBE: Knowledge-Based Machine Translation Evaluation

We propose a simple and effective method for machine translation evaluation which does not require reference translations. Our approach is based on (1) grounding the entity mentions found in each source sentence and candidate translation against a large-scale multilingual knowledge base, and (2) measuring the recall of the grounded entities found in the candidate vs. those found in the source… Our approach achieves the highest correlation with human judgements on 9 out of the 18 language pairs from the WMT19 […]

ANNdotNET — deep learning tool on .NET Platform

ANNdotNET is an open source project for deep learning written in C# with ability to create, train, evaluate and export deep learning models. The project consists of the Graphical User Interface module capable to visually prepare data, fine tune hyper-parameters, design network architecture, evaluate and test trained models… The ANNdotNET introduces the Visual Network Designer, (VND) for visually design almost any sequential deep learning network. Beside VND, ANNdotNET implements Machine Learning Engine, (MLE) based on CNTK – deep learning framework, […]

Robust and efficient post-processing for video object detection

Object recognition in video is an important task for plenty of applications, including autonomous driving perception, surveillance tasks, wearable devices or IoT networks. Object recognition using video data is more challenging than using still images due to blur, occlusions or rare object poses… Specific video detectors with high computational cost or standard image detectors together with a fast post-processing algorithm achieve the current state-of-the-art. This work introduces a novel post-processing pipeline that overcomes some of the limitations of previous post-processing […]

Whole Slide Images based Cancer Survival Prediction using Attention Guided Deep Multiple Instance Learning Networks

Traditional image-based survival prediction models rely on discriminative patch labeling which make those methods not scalable to extend to large datasets. Recent studies have shown Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) framework is useful for histopathological images when no annotations are available in classification task… Different to the current image-based survival models that limit to key patches or clusters derived from Whole Slide Images (WSIs), we propose Deep Attention Multiple Instance Survival Learning (DeepAttnMISL) by introducing both siamese MI-FCN and attention-based MIL […]

Augmented Convolutional LSTMs for Generation of High-Resolution Climate Change Projections

Projection of changes in extreme indices of climate variables such as temperature and precipitation are critical to assess the potential impacts of climate change on human-made and natural systems, including critical infrastructures and ecosystems. While impact assessment and adaptation planning rely on high-resolution projections (typically in the order of a few kilometers), state-of-the-art Earth System Models (ESMs) are available at spatial resolutions of few hundreds of kilometers… Current solutions to obtain high-resolution projections of ESMs include downscaling approaches that consider […]

Asynchronous vs Synchronous Python Performance Analysis

Introduction This article is the second part of a series on using Python for developing asynchronous web applications. The first part provides a more in-depth coverage of concurrency in Python and asyncio, as well as aiohttp. If you’d like to read more about Asynchronous Python for Web Development, we’ve got it covered. Due to the non-blocking nature of asynchronous libraries like aiohttp we would hope to be able to make and handle more requests in a given amount of time […]

Search Algorithms in Python

Introduction Searching for data stored in different data structures is a crucial part of pretty much every single application. There are many different algorithms available to utilize when searching, and each have different implementations and rely on different data structures to get the job done. Being able to choose a specific algorithm for a given task is a key skill for developers and can mean the difference between a fast, reliable and stable application and an application that crumbles from […]
