CVPR Daily - Monday

Gustavo Carneiro , Professor at University of Adelaide, gave a great talk that showcased inspiring works on anomaly detection and localization in medical images analysis with example use cases of colonoscopy images and brain images, involving generative adversarial, targeted self-supervised pre-training, and few-shot learning techniques. Stefanie Speidel , Professor at National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT) Dresden, shared exciting works on video analysis for context-aware assistance in SurgeryOR4.0, with showcases of advanced techniques such as Sim2Real image and video translation and soft-tissue registration which are important topics towards OR of the Future. Sotirios A. Tsaftaris , Professor at University of Edinburgh, gave a fantastic talk emphasizing “Big AI” in Radiology, which has necessary ingredients of multiple tasks/inputs, generalization capability, less supervision and concept learning. The pathway to this exciting “Big AI” essentially relies on better disentangled representations which helps combat many challenges such as vendor variations and population difference. A broad group of challenges and opportunities including causality are also discussed with inspiring viewpoints. Björn Menze , Professor at University of Zurich, gave a wonderful talk entitled “On Vessels and Networks” presenting wonderful projects on high-resolution vascular data about vessel segmentations and prediction of vessels centerlines, with novel techniques of unsupervised learning, wise usage of synthetic data and topology awareness combined domain knowledge. The workshop invited expert clinicians of oncology, surgery and 17 DAILY CVPR Monday Medical Computer Vision
