Teaching

Lecture & Tutorials: Digital Image Processing I

  • Information carrier image: Introduction to methodology, technology and applications of digital image processing
  • Imaging: the human eye, cameras, other sensors and imaging geometry   
  • Image pre-processing: grids and interpolation methods, homogeneous and inhomogeneous point operations   
  • Filtering: 2D Fourier transform, FIR filters and non-linear filters, feature extraction: edge detection, gradient and Laplace filters
  • Segmentation: point-based, region-based, contour-based, model-based and using neural networks    
  • Registration: point registration, surface registration, elastic registration   
  • Visualisation of 3D image data: indirect and direct volume rendering

 

Lecture & Tutorials: Digital Image Processing II

  • Advanced U-Net Architectures
  • Attention Mechanisms and Transformers   
  • Hybrid U-Net / Transformer Architectures   
  • Generative Models (e.g. Auto-Regressive Models, Variational Autoencoders, Generative Adversarial Networks, Energy-based Models, Normalizing Flows, Diffusion models) 
  • Semi- and Unsupervised Learning Techniques   
  • Foundation Models   
  • Continual Learning
  • Emerging Trends and Clinical Applications

 

Self-Paced Research

  • In this module, you will learn to conduct independent scientific research in data science. Working in teams of 3-4, you will tackle a research question over the course of the semester, developing and adjusting project plans as you go. You will meet regularly with a mentor for feedback and present your progress twice per semester to your peers and mentors. Through hands-on projects focused on current data science topics, you will gain skills in project planning, documentation, and scientific communication.
