Deep Learning Based Approaches to Synthetic Data Generation

Synthetic population generation is the process of combining multiple socioeonomic and demographic datasets from various sources and at different granularity, and downscaling them to an individual level. Although it is a fundamental step for many data science tasks, an efficient and standard framework is absent. In this project, we propose a multi-stage framework called SynC […]

Anatomical fiducials and their relevance to stereotactic neurosurgery: quality control and improving surgical targeting

Ultra-high field Magnetic Resonance Imaging (UHF-MRI) allows for visualization of deep brain regions in exquisite detail, unlike any other imaging modality. In Canada, there are only a few MRI machines that can generate magnetic fields strong enough (7T or higher) to obtain UHF-MRI scans. The ability to visualize and locate deeper brain regions with millimetric […]
