Computational Deep Learning Microscopy
Hosted By: Photonic Detection Technical Group
21 March 2019 14:00 - 15:00
Eastern Time (US & Canada) (UTC - 05:00)The emergence of deep learning as applied to computational microscopy, with the unique challenges and opportunities created by this framework will be discussed in this webinar, hosted by the OSA Photonic Detection Technical Group. Dr. Yair Rivenson from the University of California, Los Angeles, will discuss opportunities relating to enhancement of brightfield benchtop microscope images, super-resolve beyond the diffraction limit and perform cross-modality imaging in fluorescence microscopy, i.e. transforming an image acquired using one microscope to match an image acquired using a different microscopic imaging modality, while improving the signal-to-noise ratio, throughput, and reducing phototoxicity.
- This webinar will provide an overview of how the rapidly developing field of deep learning is impacting biomedical imaging and simplifying diagnostic work-flows.
- The presentation will be of interest to researchers interested in the cross-disciplinary fields of deep learning, photonic detection and biomedical optics including spectroscopy, holography, OCT, diffractive optics, tissue imaging, and bio-optics.
