Machine Learning-based Large-scale Image Analysis Workshop

The networking on group on ML-based Large-scale Image Anlaysis is a small group of academics, researchers and research software engineers with interests in AI/Machine Learning, medical imaging and large-scale computation. The group is led at the Francis Crick Institute with participants from Imperial College London, UCL, King's College London.The aim of the group is to share knowledge and experience on developing techniques that bring together novel techniques from the aforementioned research areas. Additionally, we hope to disseminate this knowledge and help to build the research capabilities in this space through technical seminars, discussion and networking opportunities.

Crick Networking Group on ML-based Large-scale Image Analysis

Join us on the afternoon of Thursday 27th February to explore the exciting developments in the field of AI/ML-based image analysis.

LT G06, Roberts Building, UCL

The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques across a vast array of problems in science, medicine and technology is fueling a revolution in our capabilities for processing and extracting knowledge from data. Biomedical imaging is one area where AI/ML processes are offering particularly exciting opportunities and demonstrating important results.This workshop will bring together a set of speakers who are experts in the use of AI/ML in the medical domain with an audience of researchers, academics and research software engineers to demonstrate some of the research and developments going on in the field. The talks will be followed at around 5pm by drinks and pizza. There will be an opportunity to chat with the speakers and network with other attendees from a range of institutions who are interested in the application of AI and Machine Learning technologies.The event is open to anyone interested in advanced techniques for large-scale biomedical image analysis and will be of interest attendees from both the Computer Science/Software Engineering community and the Medical domain.The workshop is being organised by the “Data-driven, Machine Learning-based biomedical image analysis” networking group funded under the Francis Crick Institute’s Partnership Networking Fund. The group brings together a group of academics, researchers and Research Software Engineers from The Francis Crick Institute, Imperial College London, University College London and King’s College London.Speakers include:<ul><li>Joe Ledsam, Deepmind</li><li>Nick Pawlowski, Imperial College London</li><li>Emma Robinson, King&#x27;s College London</li><li>Carles Bosch, The Francis Crick Institute</li><li>Martin Jones, The Francis Crick Institute</li></ul>Schedule:Arrival and registration from 13:3014:00 Welcome / Introduction14:10 Artificial Medical Intelligence at Google Health and DeepMind, Joe Ledsam, Deepmind14:50 Probabilistic Modelling for Detecting Outliers in Medical Images, Nick Pawlowski, Imperial College London15:10 Coffee Break15:40 Predicting Cognitive Disorders through Machine and Deep Learning, Emma Robinson, King&#x27;s College London16:10 Learning across 8 million patients, Marc Modat, King&#x27;s College London16:25 Segmentation of volume electron microscopy data using crowdsourced annotations as ground truth, Martin Jones, The Francis Crick Institute16:40 Lightning talks:<ul><li>Philip Noonan, King&#x27;s College London</li><li>Tim Hogenboom, Imperial College London</li></ul>16:50 Closing remarks17:00 Networking - Food and drinks availableTalk details:Artificial Medical Intelligence at Google Health and DeepMind, Joe Ledsam, DeepmindArtificial intelligence has a profound potential to improve patient outcomes. A holistic, patient centered approach is required to achieve this. The applications of artificial intelligence to research topics in healthcare cover a broad range of areas including algorithm development, translational research, clinical validation and even new biomarker discovery. Google Health and DeepMind are active across this diverse research landscape, and this talk will describe their approach for developing and implementing artificial intelligence in clinical practice, with particular emphasis placed on the work of DeepMind in Medical Imaging. The talk will be given by Joe Ledsam, a clinician scientist at DeepMind, who works on applications of machine learning to challenges in health and science.Probabilistic Modelling for Detecting Outliers in Medical Images, Nick Pawlowski, Imperial College LondonAdvances in machine learning for medical image analysis are largely driven by data-hungry deep learning methods. Normative modelling offers an approach that allows for detecting abnormal conditions as outliers. This talk will introduce different ways of performing normative modelling using deep learning methods and explore the application to brain as well as histopathology images.Predicting Cognitive Disorders through Machine and Deep Learning, Emma Robinson, King&#x27;s College LondonMachine and Deep Learning are having a significant impact on image processing of neuroimaging data but we still face some challenges when it comes to precision modelling of phenotypes, particularly those pertaining to cognition or complex neurological/psychiatric conditions of the cortex. This talk will discuss the challenges, and present some results of new methods trying to address these problems.Understanding the brain with imaging data. Current challenges in systems neuroscience, Carles Bosch, The Francis Crick InstituteThe architecture of neural connections can be densely imaged, potentially to the extent of full circuits, enabling an array of experimental avenues to explore how the brain works. However, the challenge that emerges has multiple sides: entire neural circuits must be recorded and imaged, so as to interrogate their function and their structure, in order to generate mechanistic understanding. This talk will explore the throughput and bottlenecks in data generation, processing, analysis and interpretation of correlative multimodal imaging pipelines in systems neuroscience.Segmentation of volume electron microscopy data using crowdsourced annotations as ground truth, Martin Jones, The Francis Crick InstituteWhilst deep learning methods have revolutionised many fields of bioimage analysis, the major bottleneck in almost all projects is the lack of availability of ground truth training data. Our “Etch a Cell” project (<a href="https://etchacell.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">etchacell.org</a>) achieves expert-level ground-truth annotations from thousands of non-expert volunteers, via the Zooniverse citizen science platform. Consensus is achieved by aggregating multiple non-expert annotations per image. A U-Net deep-learning system trained on this aggregated data produces expert level predictions on large volume electron microscopy datasets.----Registration for this event is being handled by a group member based at Imperial College London.
