We had a “VALIANT Attempt” at teaching crochet! Loved sharing an art form with other AI trainees that can’t be machined (yet)! #AI#PhD#crochet@VandyValiant
ALT A group of students learning crochet. A slide reads “Cookies and Crochet for VAL-entine’s Day”
ALT I am leading the group in learning crochet using an overhead camera.
Thank you and congratulations to the incredible leadership team and organizing committee behind BrainHack!
For a full list of the amazing individuals who made this event possible, check out the BrainHack Organizing Committee page (lnkd.in/gYJBWNnB).
ALT On the left are two MRIs of the brain showing different quantitative T1 values using two methods: MP2RAGE and multi-TI inversion recovery. On the right are two images showing the relative value between the two. The second image shows a major improvement in relative value after correction with a patch-based model.
@AdamSaunders97 presented "Super-resolution Multi-Contrast Unbiased Eye Atlases with Deep Probabilistic Refinement" at Southeastern Vision Research Conference here in Nashville.
At the recent @vuiis Retreat, @AdamSaunders97 presented "Vasculature-informed spatial smoothing of white matter functional magnetic resonance imaging." This novel method smooths images along the vasculature to unlock insights into brain connectivity. @VanderbiltU
An image processing riddle for those of you interested — I bought this shirt at @SPIEtweets Medical Imaging 2023 and was told there’s a secret message if we run it through MATLAB. We can’t figure it out! Any thoughts? 1/2
@kurtschilling5 has tried all sorts of transforms (Fourier, wavelet, Radon, DCT, Hough) but @MASI_Lab members haven’t cracked the case yet! Here’s a curvature corrected version: 2/2
This was an emotional day. After 15 years, closing the doors on the original MASI Lab for the last time. Alumni and friends come back and visit us in our new beautiful space with @VandyValiant. We will have a grand opening later this fall.
So here's a story of, by far, the weirdest bug I've encountered in my CS career.
Along with @maciejwolczyk we've been training a neural network that learns how to play NetHack, an old roguelike game, that looks like in the screenshot. Recenlty, something unexpected happened.
Vanderbilt and the School of Engineering announce the launch of @VandyValiant, a transformational lab leveraging immersive translational AI to drive discovery across disciplines ranging from medicine and materials science to the humanities, social science. news.vanderbilt.edu/2024/05/…
