Dear reader, Last month saw WACV 2022 , the Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision , take place in Hawaii. In this February issue of Computer Vision News , we report on three great papers from the event. Starting over the page with the Best Paper Award winner, Agree to Disagree - When Deep Learning Models with Identical Architectures Produce Distinct Explanations , authored by a top team from Durham University . For two more impressive papers, head to page 8 in the main magazine and page 48 in our supplement, Medical Imaging News. Our research of the month is a fascinating paper in the field of AI for cardiology: Automated Echocardiographic Detection of Severe Coronary Artery Disease Using Artificial Intelligence . Can an AI systembe developed to automate stress echocardiography analysis and support clinical interpretation? Apparently, yes, and providing automated classifications to clinicians when reading stress echocardiograms could improve accuracy, inter-reader agreement, and more. We have a full report by Marica Muffoletto on page 30. A great friend of our magazine, well known in both the CVPR and MICCAI communities , is both a Professor at Harvard Medical School and a Research Scientist at MIT . We are honored to host Adrian Dalca , who speaks to us about his work on machine learning models for medical image analysis. With such a busy professional life, he reveals he has started a repository for all the ideas he doesn’t have time for, so if you’re short of research inspiration, you don’t want to miss his exclusive interview on page 24! Enjoy reading all these articles and many more in this exciting February issue of Computer Vision News. Tell your friends and colleagues about us and bring us along for your next MedTech project!
