Congrats to Weijie Chen, MS on a successful PhD preliminary examination!

Congratulations to Weijie Chen on a successful preliminary examination! Weijie’s PhD thesis work in the MIMRTL group will develop efficient ensemble methods applied to medical imaging. His hypothesis is that such models will yield not only better performance for segmentation and synthesis applications, but also enable assessment of model uncertainty. The ability to assess a model’s uncertainty can help provide clinicians and other users of medical AI with valuable information on how useful a particular deep learning output is. Congrats Weijie, we look forward to see more of your great work! A special thanks to committee members Diego Hernando, PhD; Yu Chen Hu, PhD; Yin Li, PhD; Dimitris Papailiopoulos, PhD!
