Automated Model Tuning for Retail

Artificial intelligence, especially Machine learning algorithms, plays important roles in building recommendation systems and promotional forecasting systems for retailers. However, training a machine learning model requires the choice of a number of significant features and requires tuning a large set of configurations. Therefore, it takes a long time for humans to find the optimal configuration […]

Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease symptoms using speech longitudinally

An early symptom of Alzheimer’s Disease is difficulty in remembering recent events. These trends are reflected in problems in language and patterns of speech. Speech patterns of an individual can hence be used to determine the trajectories of preclinical cognitive decline. The difference in the cognitive trends over subject groups, analyzed using speech data collected […]

Intra-operative Error Detection on Surgical Video based on Computer Vision Analysis

The intra-operative errors that occurs in adverse events have been a major concern in healthcare and surgical industry. Conventionally, error-event assessment is done by peer surgeon review, which is time consuming and costly. With the advances in machine learning and computer vision techniques, it is possible to keep track of the operation surgical procedures based […]

Segmentation of 3D microscopy images

In-vivo imaging provides a unique opportunity to examine complex cellular activity in live tissue. Images produced by these experiments are difficult to analyze manually, typically applied to mono-layer cell culture assays (i.e. cells in a dish). Recent advances in deep learning enable the opportunity to analyze these in-vivo tissue images with greater efficiency and accuracy. […]

Privacy Enhanced Decentralized Identity System

Currently, some public and private organizations have implemented various identification verification solutions to manage identity authentication. The idea of using a third-party identity provider (IdP) to access a relying party (RP) is not new, and both RP and IdP have their benefits as they can only be connected once in a federated identity ecosystem.  While […]
