Radiomics Features #2

Closed ankitaeclipse closed 4 years ago

ankitaeclipse commented 4 years ago

I am a PhD student at UNSW Sydney and work on implementing pattern recognition and computer vision techniques for rock imagery.

One of the key things I do is to use the radiomics implementation from medical discipline and apply it to rocks. The radiomics library allows calculating pattern recognition based statistical descriptors of region of interest or the image being investigated. Based on what I have read they are extremely powerful for cancer detection and hence, I believe its implementation for COVID-19 is crucial.

Here's where you can read about how widely it is used: https://www.nature.com/collections/ksgfknntbs/

There are many pre-existing libraries that already have the implementation to extract radiomic features. So we need to ensure that this can be a part of the pipeline and fine tune based on your approach.

Looking for people to collaborate on this! Let's do it :)
