Lifelong learning for Medical Artificial Intelligence

TU computer scientists create standardised framework for developing and validating clinical AI solutions
Doctors often rely on imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT) for a quick and correct diagnosis. For some time now, they have been supported in the analysis of CT scans by artificial intelligence (AI). This can be trained, for example, to segment different types of tissue in the image file, i.e. to distinguish them precisely from one another and to mark them in colour. Computer scientists at TU Darmstadt want to accelerate the further development of these AI solutions in the hospital environment in a unique interdisciplinary project.
