2015
Elizabeth K. Cole
I am a rising junior in the Commonwealth Honors College at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I am pursuing a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and a minor in Mathematics. This summer, I am working on the automatic detection and classification of multiple organs within CT images. My approach utilizes classification techniques and deep learning. I am extracting image features from a deep pre-trained convolutional neural network, then training and testing a linear support vector machine. I am also experimenting with fully training my own convolutional neural network. This project aims to solve a well-defined and important medical imaging problem, with possible applications in medical diagnosis, radiotherapy planning, fat quantification, and organ segmentation.
