Neural Teleportation

Published in Mathematics, 2023

We explore a process called neural teleportation, a mathematical consequence of applying quiver representation theory to neural networks.

Echocardiography Segmentation With Enforced Temporal Consistency

Published in IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging (IEEE TMI), 2022

In this paper, we propose a framework to learn the 2D+time apical long-axis cardiac shape such that the segmented sequences can benefit from temporal and anatomical consistency constraints.

Cardiac Segmentation with Strong Anatomical Guarantees

Published in IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging (IEEE TMI), 2020

In this paper, we present a framework for producing cardiac image segmentation maps that are guaranteed to respect pre-defined anatomical criteria, while remaining within the inter-expert variability.

Fusing Echocardiography Images and Medical Records for Continuous Patient Stratification

Published in Medical Imaging with Deep Learning (MIDL), 2024

Drawing on novel transformer models applied to tabular data (e.g. variables from electronic health records), we propose a method that considers descriptors extracted from medical records and echocardiograms to learn a representation of hypertension.

Extraction of Volumetric Indices from Echocardiography: Which Deep Learning Solution for Clinical Use?

Published in Functional Imaging and Modeling of the Heart (FIMH), 2023

We propose a comprehensive comparison between the current best performing methods in medical/echocardiographic image segmentation, with a particular focus on temporal consistency and cross-dataset aspects.

On the effectiveness of GAN generated cardiac MRIs for segmentation

Published in Medical Imaging with Deep Learning (MIDL), 2020

In this work, we propose a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) - Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) model that can produce highly realistic MRI together with its pixel accurate groundtruth for the application of cine-MR image cardiac segmentation.
