HybridCervCancerDetection – Combining machine learning and deep learning approaches to detect cervical cancer in cytology images

Description:

The CLARE project is focused on developing a computer-aided diagnosis support system for cervical cancer screening through the association of a 3D-printed portable microscope with an AI-powered smartphone application that analyses the images acquired from the cytology samples. This project will contribute to the artificial intelligence component of the CLARE system, through the implementation and optimization of a hybrid pipeline for the identification and stratification of abnormal cell regions, combining state of the art deep learning (DL) approaches and conventional machine learning (ML) models.

 

Outcome:

This dissertation will contribute to the artificial intelligence component of the CLARE system, through the implementation and optimization of a hybrid pipeline for the identification and stratification of abnormal cell regions, combining state of the art deep learning (DL) approaches and conventional machine learning (ML) models.

Expected direct impact in task execution of current and future Computer Vision projects, such as CLARE and TAMI.
