Fighting COVID-19 with Machine Learning

Posted on April 29, 2020November 6, 2020

Fighting COVID-19 with Machine Learning (Ching Lam Choi) (Hong Kong) is an English session in the online PyCon HK 2020 Spring.

Fighting COVID-19 with Machine Learning (Ching Lam Choi) (Hong Kong)

In this talk, I will introduce my open source Python project, COVID-19 chest CT segmentation with PyTorch. I leverage the UNet model — a Fully Convolutional encoder-decoder network — for multi-class medical segmentation. Through UNet, I successfully detect and localise COVID-19 symptoms, including ground-glass, consolidation and pleural effusion, from axial chest CT slices, using open source datasets and annotations.

Level: Intermediate
