Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system are for parametrizing a function including a processing algorithm and a representation generator, the representation generator being designed to generate at least one representation. In an embodiment, the method includes using an optimization algorithm to determine the processing algorithm and the at least one representation parametrization. The optimization algorithm optimizes a measure for the performance of the processing algorithm when operating on a set of training representations generated by applying the representation generator to training medical image datasets, by varying on the one hand the content of the at least one representation parametrization and/or the number of used representation parametrizations and on the other hand the processing algorithm and the algorithm parameters.
