Vast majority of research was done between 2006 and 2017 at Technincal University of Cluj Napoca
The liver has a complex microscopic structure. Alterations at this level affect the macroscopic properties of the liver and overall health of the human body.
To inexperienced eye, some images appear as a collection of random noise. This noise create the visual sensation of shapes and objects. I devised a way to quantify this intuition and use it to detect useful information from very “noisy” images.
Some crystalline substances under tension experiences a “flow” of its micro crystals. I devised a fairly robust Computer Vision pipeline to detect these features, automatically.
Texture analysis is viewed as a method to enhance the
diagnosis power of classical B-mode ultrasound image.
I thoroughly investigated such tools both on actual liver ultrasounds and on a novel liver tissue model.
There were many problems investigated, for most of them, the trained machine learning models reached very high level of accuracy.
