When computer vision works more like a brain, it sees more like people do
Researchers led by MIT Professor James DiCarlo, the director of MIT's Quest for Intelligence and member of the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab, have made a computer vision model more robust by training it to work like a part of the brain that humans and other primates rely on for object recognition.
A deep learning approach to private data sharing of medical images using conditional generative adversarial networks (GANs)
Clinical data sharing can facilitate data-driven scientific research, allowing a broader range of questions to be addressed and thereby leading to greater understanding and innovation. However, sharing biomedical data can put sensitive personal information at risk.
Screening for Chagas disease from the electrocardiogram using a deep neural network
Worldwide, it is estimated that over 6 million people are infected with Chagas disease (ChD). It is a neglected disease that can lead to severe heart conditions in its chronic phase. While early treatment can avoid complications, the early-stage detection rate is low. We explore the use of deep neural networks to detect ChD from electrocardiograms (ECGs) to aid in the early detection of the disease.
