Research

ā†’ Full list

Smart Agriculture (Grain Kernel Analysis)

  • (CVPR'22) GrainSpace: A Large-scale Dataset for Fine-grained and Domain-adaptive Recognition of Cereal Grains
    • Lei Fan, Yiwen Ding., Yang Song et al
    • We present a large-scale cereal grains dataset called GrainSpace, including a total of 5.25 million images determined by professional inspectors. The grain samples including wheat, maize and rice are collected from five countries and more than 30 regions.

Histopathological Image Analysis

  • (TMI'22 and MICCAI'21) Cancer Survival Prediction From Whole Slide Images With Self-Supervised Learning and Slide Consistency

    • Lei Fan, Arcot Sowmya, Erik Meijering, Yang Song
    • we propose a survival prediction model that exploits heterogeneous features at the patient-level. We introduce colorization as the pretext task to train the CNNs which are tailored for extracting features from patches of WSIs, and we develop a patient-level framework integrating multiple WSIs for survival prediction with consistency and ranking losses.
    • [Paper-MICCAI21 (opens new window)], [Paper-TMI22 (opens new window)]
  • (MICCAI'22) Fast FF-to-FFPE Whole Slide Image Translation via Laplacian Pyramid and Contrastive Learning

    • Lei Fan, Arcot Sowmya, Erik Meijering, Yang Song)
    • we propose the fastFF2FFPE for translating FF into FFPE-style efficiently, and our model is based on the Laplacian Pyramid and contrastive learning.
