YEP(2) - Image processing and AI/ML
FY 2020-21 · 2020-10-01
Summary
This project is about developing algorithms in the field of Digital Pathology using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques. The algorithms will help develop better software for the current Whole Slide Image Instrument that is under development. These AI and ML techniques will help reduce time for analysis of the large data sets and allow closer real time of analyzed data to the Pathologists while they are performing diagnosis of the tissue under the microscope.

Description (French)
Ce projet vise à développer des algorithmes dans le domaine de la pathologie numérique en utilisant des techniques d'intelligence artificielle (IA) et d'apprentissage machine (AM). Les algorithmes permettront de mettre au point un meilleur logiciel pour l'instrument actuel d'image intégrale de diapositives qui est en cours de développement. Ces techniques d'IA et d'AM permettront de réduire le temps d'analyse des grands ensembles de données et de fournir aux pathologistes des données analysées plus proches en temps réel pendant qu'ils effectuent le diagnostic des tissus au microscope.
Expected Results
The purpose of IRAP’s Youth Employment Program is to assist in increasing the supply of highly qualified people, promoting the benefits of advanced studies, demonstrating federal leadership by investing in the skills required to meet the needs of the knowledge economy and facilitating the transition of highly skilled young people to a rapidly changing labour market.
