Short presentation
I am a postdoctoral researcher in the PET/MR research group headed by Professor Joel Kullberg and Professor Håkan Ahlström where I am researching topics related to medical image registration and deep image regression.
My PhD research was in method development for efficient fusion of intensity and spatial information, distance/similarity measures between sets/images, image registration, and machine learning methods.
Keywords
- image analysis
- machine learning
- deep learning
- optimization
- robustness
- similarity measures
- image registration
- distance transforms
