Evaluation of Machine Learning Classification Models for False-Positive Reduction in Prostate Cancer Detection Using MRI Data.

In this work, several machine learning (ML) algorithms, both classical ML and modern deep learning, were investigated for their ability to improve the performance of a pipeline for the segmentation and classification of prostate lesions using MRI data. The algorithms were used to perform a binary classification of benign and malignant tissue visible in MRI sequences. The model choices include support vector machines (SVMs), random decision forests (RDFs), and multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs), along with radiomic features that are reduced by applying PCA or mRMR feature selection.

Airway label prediction in video bronchoscopy: capturing temporal dependencies utilizing anatomical knowledge.

Purpose: Navigation guidance is a key requirement for a multitude of lung interventions using video bronchoscopy. State-of-the-art solutions focus on lung biopsies using electromagnetic tracking and intraoperative image registration w.r.
