CLASSIFAI - Usable Active Learning for medical image segmentation
CLASSIFAI is a user-centered learning system for interactive annotation and segmentation of medical image data for therapy planning and execution of scientific studies - an Artificial Intelligence with the human being in the center. Classifai makes active machine learning useful for the analysis of volumetric images in medicine, e.g. MRIs. This approach has the potential to massively accelerate extensive components of the work of medical researchers and physicians. It also opens up the possibility of accelerating the performance of studies, diagnoses and therapies.

Self-Supervised Learning for Medical Imaging
Self-supervised learning methods have witnessed a recent surge of interest after proving successful in multiple application fields. We propose 3D versions for five different self-supervised methods, in the form of proxy tasks. Our methods facilitate neural network feature learning from unlabeled 3D images, aiming to reduce the required cost for expert annotation. The developed algorithms are 3D Contrastive Predictive Coding, 3D Rotation prediction, 3D Jigsaw puzzles, Relative 3D patch location, and 3D Exemplar networks.

Generative Adversarial Networks for Medical Imaging
Imbalanced training data introduce important challenge into medical image analysis where a majority of the data belongs to a normal class and only few samples belong to abnormal classes. We propose to mitigate the class imbalance problem by introducing two generative adversarial network (GAN) architectures for class minority oversampling.
