A Diffeomorphic 3D-to-3D Registration Algorithm for the Segmentation of the Left Ventricle in Ultrasound Sequences
DownloadFall 2021
Heart disease is the second leading cause of death in Canada, where it affects the lives of over two million people. One modality used to detect and diagnose heart disease and other abnormalities is echocardiography or ultrasound imaging of the heart. Ultrasound imaging, compared to other...

A Study of Ensemble Machine Learning Model Architectures for Parkinson’s Disease Detection and Freezing of Gait Forecasting
DownloadFall 2021
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a major progressive neurological disorder and is extremely difficult to diagnose PD~\cite{pmid23039866} since there are no defined medical tests for this task. The existing approach involves a combination physical examinations, neuroimaging and demographic analysis...
