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 represented at MICCAI 2025—one of the leading AI conferences on medical imaging and computer assisted intervention—with three recently accepted research papers.
More than 50 attendees from the Norwegian AI research community gathered in Tromsø, Norway for two days of insightful presentations, interactive technical sessions, and scientific and social interactions.
Last week, we wished Aasland—accompanied by Political Advisor Munir Jaber and Senior Adviser Finn-Hugo Markussen—welcome to the Norwegian Computing Center (NR). One of the visit's goals was to showcase ongoing Visual Intelligence projects at NR.
Alba Ordoñez and Anders U. Waldeland presented ongoing work on seismic foundation models and an interactive seismic interpretation engine at EAGE Annual 2025 in Toulouse, France.
Østmo was invited to Abels tårn—one of the largest popular science radio shows in Norway—to answer listener-submitted questions related to artificial Intelligence (AI). The live show took place at Blårock Cafe in Tromsø, Norway on June 12th.
VI industry partner Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT) received an Industrial PhD grant from the Research Council of Norway. The project will be closely connected to Visual Intelligence's "Earth observation" innovation area.
