Title
Harnessing Artificial Intelligence for Healthcare
Abstract
With the inherent boom in availability of large volumes of multimodal healthcare data over the internet, their automated processing is becoming all the more relevant in today’s perspective. Manual delineation and processing is expensive, biased, and slow. Here lies the utility of artificial intelligence, encompassing machine learning and deep learning. The role of AI is in providing assistive intelligence to healthcare professionals, in their endeavour to arrive at cost-effective, fast, and viable solutions for complex decision-making. This talk outlines the role of AI in several aspects of healthcare, encompassing classification, segmentation, and survival prediction. We discuss applications with multimodal imagery spanning over X-ray, CT, MR, fundus images, to handle some diseases. Finally, a deformable deep net is introduced for efficient segmentation.
