Suaiba Salahuddin, Stine Hansen, and Sristhi Gautam won the best paper award at the 11th Color and Visual Computing Symposium, Sept. 8-9, 2022!
The paper was entitled "A self-guided anomaly detection-inspired few-shot segmentation network".
The work describes a new approach for automatically finding (segmenting) organs in medical imagery such as MRI and is based on deep learning. The new method can work even in scenarios where the neural network is presented with extremely little annotated data. A major component is self-training, in the sense of creating pseudo-annotations for use in the so-called few shot training process of the network, as well as a self-guiding element to make as few errors as possible.
Suaiba Salahuddin says in a comment:
-It was an amazing research opportunity to collaborate on my first paper with Stine Hansen and Srishti Gautam under the supervision of Michael Kampffmeyer and Robert Jenssen.
-I am privileged to have helped contribute towards critical medical AI challenges such as limited data. I am honoured and motivated to pursue further high-quality research having received the CVCS award!
Visual Intelligence will be well presented at ICML 2025—one of the leading international academic conference in machine learning—with four newly accepted research papers.
After four years of operation, an international AI expert panel was appointed to assess Visual Intelligence's progress and results. The evaluation was characterized by its excellent remarks on the centre's scientific quality and innovation output.
Senior Researcher Fredrik Dahl recently gave a talk about Norsk Regnesentral's work on developing AI algorithms for automatic analysis of image quality and cancer detection at Norsk Radiografforbund's mammography symposium in Oslo.

I juni møtes det norske KI-miljøet i Tromsø for å presentere ny forskning og diskutere nye retninger innen feltet. KI-forskere inviteres til å delta og vise fram forskningen sin under konferansen.
Visual Intelligence and the Digital Innovation Lab invited industry professionals to present ideas for master's projects to computer science and machine learning students at UiT The Arctic University of Norway.
Kunstig intelligens (KI) endrer måten vi løser komplekse problemer på. Ved UiT Norges arktiske universitet leder professor Robert Jenssen Visual Intelligence, et senter for forskningsdrevet innovasjon som utvikler neste generasjons KI-metoder.
Visual Intelligence researchers had the great pleasure of talking to high school students about the AI study programme at UiT The Arctic University of Norway during the UiT Open Day.
Director Robert Jenssen represented Visual Intelligence at the CuttingEdgeAI seminar "KI anno 2023: I offentlighetens interesse?" at the University of Bergen on March 7th.
