Projects

Content-based image retrieval

Algorithms for large-scale, interactive, explainable content-based image retrieval.

Reproducibility and interoperability

Web framework and container-based execution architecture for reproducible deployment and benchmarking of image analysis workflows (Rubens et al., Cell Patterns, 2020).

Algorithms and web user interfaces for multimodal datasets

User interfaces and data models for multiple modalities beyond histology incl. MALDI-IMS/multispectral imaging (Rubens et al., Proteomics Clin Appl, 2019).

Tools for user behavior analytics

Data analysis modules to study user behavior in educational settings (Fries et al., Anatomical Sciences Education 2023; Vanhee et al., J. Pathology Informatics 2019).

Anatomical landmark detection algorithms

Machine learning algorithms for morphometric change measurements e.g. in developmental and toxicological studies. See e.g. Kumar et al. (Biomolecules 2023, ECCV 2022 Bioimage Computing) and Vandaele et al. (Nature Scientific Reports, 2018).

Image classification and object recognition algorithms

Deep/Machine learning algorithms for diagnostic or for phenotyping, e.g. in developmental and toxicological studies. See e.g. Marée et al. (PRL 2016; ISBI 2016); Jeanray et al. (PLOS One 2015); Mormont et al. (CVPRW 2018, IEEE JBHI 2020).

Cell Counting algorithms

Benchmarking of algorithms for cell counting in specific regions of interests within tissues.

Workflows for sorting various types of cells

Image analysis workflows e.g. to detect abnormal cells for early cytological diagnosis. See e.g. Delga et al., Acta Cytologica 2014; Mormont et al., 2016.

Image segmentation techniques

Self-training algorithms for exploiting sparse annotations (Mormont et al., ECCV AIMIA 2022) and algorithms for the quantification and delineation of tissue areas in whole tissue slides (Marée et al. ISBI 2014).
