Detection of abnormalities within the inner ear is a challenging task even for experienced clinicians. In this study, we propose an automated method for automatic abnormality detection to provide support for the diagnosis and clinical management of various otological disorders. We propose a framework for inner ear abnormality detection based on deep reinforcement learning for landmark detection which is trained uniquely in normative data.

We present Nautilus-a web-based research platform for automated pre- and post-implantation cochlear analysis. Nautilus delineates cochlear structures from pre-operative clinical CT images by combining deep learning and Bayesian inference approaches.
