  • Patent number: 12164599
    Abstract: Volumetric quantification can be performed for various parameters of an object represented in volumetric data. Multiple views of the object can be generated, and those views provided to a set of neural networks that can generate inferences in parallel. The inferences from the different networks can be used to generate pseudo-labels for the data, for comparison purposes, which enables a co-training loss to be determined for the unlabeled data. The co-training loss can then be used to update the relevant network parameters for the overall data analysis network. If supervised data is also available then the network parameters can further be updated using the supervised loss.

  • Publication number: 20240394883
    Abstract: Methods and systems for image registration using an intelligent artificial agent are disclosed. In an intelligent artificial agent based registration method, a current state observation of an artificial agent is determined based on the medical images to be registered and current transformation parameters. Action-values are calculated for a plurality of actions available to the artificial agent based on the current state observation using a machine learning based model, such as a trained deep neural network (DNN). The actions correspond to predetermined adjustments of the transformation parameters. An action having a highest action-value is selected from the plurality of actions and the transformation parameters are adjusted by the predetermined adjustment corresponding to the selected action. The determining, calculating, and selecting steps are repeated for a plurality of iterations, and the medical images are registered using final transformation parameters resulting from the plurality of iterations.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to perform federated training of neural networks while maintaining control over dissemination of local models of neural networks from which aspects of local training data might be extracted. In at least one embodiment, a neural network is trained on local training data and a local model is provided to be aggregated with other local models into a global model that is in turn used for further local model training, wherein a provided local model or training is adjusted to reduce an ability to extract aspects of local training data therefrom.

  • Patent number: 11630995
    Abstract: The user is to be informed of the reliability of the machine-learned model based on the current input relative to the training data used to train the model or the model itself. In a medical situation, the data for a current patient is compared to the training data used to train a prediction model and/or to a decision function of the prediction model. The comparison indicates the training content relative to the current patient, so provides a user with information on the reliability of the prediction for the current situation. The indication deals with the variation of the data of the current patient from the training data or relative to the prediction model, allowing the user to see how well trained the predication model is relative to the current patient. This indication is in addition to any global confidence output through application of the prediction model to the data of the current patient.
