titleParallel Computing with MATLAB

Overview

We will introduce parallel and distributed computing with a focus on speeding up application codes.  By working through common scenarios and workflows using hands-on demos, you will gain a detailed understanding of the parallel constructs in MATLAB, their capabilities, and some of the common hurdles that you'll encounter when using them.

Highlights

  • Multithreading vs multiprocessing 

  • When to use parfor vs parfeval constructs 

  • Creating data queues for data transfer 

  • Leveraging NVIDIA GPUs 

  • Working with large data 

Who Should Attend

Researchers, scientists, and students interested in advancing the pace of their research by using parallel computing strategies.

titleMedical Image Processing and Machine Learning Workflow

Overview

Medical images are obtained from various sources including MRI, CT, X-ray, ultrasound, and PET scans. Analyzing these images necessitates a comprehensive environment for data access, visualization, processing, and algorithm development. A key challenge involves extracting quantitative features to generate clinically relevant information using advanced techniques like machine learning algorithms.  This presentation will explore radiomics, which captures characteristics not typically visible. Radiomics features can be employed across various medical imaging modalities and applications, enabling the study of associations between imaging features and patient biology, as well as the prediction of clinical outcomes, making radiomics a versatile technique in medical imaging. These features quantify shape, intensity, and texture characteristics within medical images, reducing reliance on subjective interpretation for clinical workflows.

Highlights

In this session, you will learn how to:

  • Import and manage large sets of images without loading them into memory,

  • Extract shape, intensity, and texture radiomics features,

  • Reduce the number of extracted features for classification,  

  • Build a deep learning network to classify images, and

  • Review and analyze the results.
