Work History
"Taste of Research" Scholarship Project
UNSW
12.2023 - Current
Supervised by Dr. Vidhyasaharan Sethu, Associate Professor Beena Ahmed, Dr Sirojan Tharmakulasingam.
Abstract: Apply the AL/ML method to automatically identify and segment coronary artery from CTCA images. Explore the methods to automatically infer the blockage in the vessel.
- Use nnUnet combined with a pre-trained vascular model to train a coronary artery segmentation model
- Use python code to reproduce some image processing technique on 3D CT image such as curve plannar reconstruction on vessel, lung small vessels removal.
- Explored a fully automated workflow from coronary artery segmentation to vascular stenosis analysis
Intern
UNSW HCI Lab
09.2022 - 12.2022
Worked with a PHD student, assist in implementing some hardware-related implementations in paper.
Used Raspberry Pi to get the image generated from the AI model (stable diffusion) and then drive the LED matrix for display. Exploring the interaction between generated content and people.
Leant some image processing technique like affine transformation.
