Presentation:
Machine-Learning based microscopy image analysis
Modern microscopy modalities that are used in the life sciences produce increasingly large image datasets which are difficult to interpret without the help of computational methods. In my talk, I will highlight several Machine Learning based approaches that we developed to address common image analysis problems in microscopy such as image restoration, nuclei/cell segmentation, and organelle reconstruction. I will demonstrate our methods on diverse examples ranging from 2D fluorescence microscopy, digital histopathology, light-sheet microscopy, to 3D electron microscopy. Finally, I will give an introduction to different software frameworks that we developed to make these methods available to the life science research community.
