Intern at MeDAL(Medical Imagining, Deep Learning and AI Lab) →Worked on tumor segmentation from multimodal MRI data. Created and used extensions of dice loss to increase lower bound on model performance from 0.64 to 0.8 IoU in the presence of a distribution split to increase model reliability and trust in clinical settings→ Implemented representation learning models for automated feature extraction in tabular datasets for cases where data is anonymized or feature creation is not obvious→ Devised a loss function to fine-tune segmentation in histopathology images by decreasing noisy signals in the gradients of saturated models→Used distance maps to learn/incorporate multiple doctor annotations and messy samples→Applied and reviewed methods of Continual Learning to different medical datasets. See blog for literature review.
