Tutorial on Machine Learning at EG VCBM

Ulm University

Tutorial at the 9th EG Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine by Pedro Hermosilla and Timo Ropinski

Timo Ropinski and Pedro Hermosilla offer a tutorial on machine learning at the Eurographics Workshop on Visual COmputing in Biology and Medicine  in Brno.

Content: Within this tutorial a basic introduction will be given into machine learning as it is used within visual computing in biology and medicine. The focus will be on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and their application to image classification and segmentation. For these tasks, current network architectures and training data sets are discussed. After completing the tutorial, attendees should be able to use TensorFlow to train their own networks with their own data.
