MLMI 2010 - International Workshop on Machine Learning in Medical Imaging In conjunction with MICCAI 2010 - September 20, 2010, in Beijing, China
http://miccai-mlmi.uchicago.edu/ =============================================================== Important dates: Paper Submission: June 1, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: July 1, 2010 Camera Ready Version: July 15, 2010 --------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Machine learning plays an essential role in the medical imaging field, including image segmentation, image registration, computer-aided diagnosis, image fusion, image-guided therapy, image annotation and image database retrieval. With advances in medical imaging, new imaging modalities and methodologies such as cone-beam/multi-slice CT, 3D Ultrasound, tomosynthesis, diffusion-weighted MRI, electrical impedance tomography and diffuse optical tomography, new machine-learning algorithms/applications are demanded in the medical imaging field. Single-sample evidence provided by the patient's imaging data is often not sufficient to provide satisfactory performance, therefore tasks in medical imaging require learning from examples to simulate physician's prior knowledge of the data. Researchers are now beginning to use techniques such as modern implementations of supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised and reinforcement learning, for instance using probabilistic modeling and kernel methods. The main aim of this workshop is to help advance the scientific research within the broad field of medical imaging and machine learning. This workshop focuses on major trends and challenges in this area, and work to identify new techniques and their use in medical imaging. We are looking for original, high-quality submissions that address innovative research and development in the analysis of medical image data using machine learning techniques. Topics of interests include but are not limited to: - Machine learning (e.g., with support vector machines, statistical methods, manifold-space-based methods, artificial neural networks) applications to medical images with 2D, 3D and 4D data - Medical image analysis (e.g., pattern recognition, classification, segmentation, registration) of anatomical structures and lesions - Multi-modality fusion (e.g., MRI, PET, CT projection X-ray, CT, X-ray, ultrasound) for image guided interventions - Image reconstruction for medical imaging (e.g., CT, PET, MRI, X-ray) - Computer-aided detection/diagnosis (e.g., for lung cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, acute disease, chronic disease, osteoporosis) - Medical image retrieval (e.g., context-based retrieval) - Cellular image analysis (e.g., genotype, phenotype, classification, identification, cell tracking) - Molecular/pathologic image analysis - Dynamic, functional, physiologic, and anatomic imaging Organizers: * Pingkun Yan, Philips Research North America * Fei Wang, IBM Almaden Research Center * Kenji Suzuki, University of Chicago * Dinggang Shen, UNC-Chapel Hill Program Committee * Vince D.
