There are large amount of valuable video archives in Video Home System (VHS) format. However, due to the analog nature, their quality is often poor. Compared to High-definition television (HDTV), VHS video not only has a dull color appearance but also has a lower resolution and often appears blurry. In this paper, we focus on the problem of translating VHS video to HDTV video and have developed a solution based on a novel unsupervised multi-task adversarial learning model. Inspired by the success of generative adversarial network (GAN) and CycleGAN, we employ cycle consistency loss, adversarial loss and perceptual loss together to learn a translation model. An important innovation of our work is the incorporation of super-resolution model and color transfer model that can solve unsupervised multi-task problem. To our knowledge, this is the first work that dedicated to the study of the relation between VHS and HDTV and the first computational solution to translate VHS to HDTV. We present experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of our solution qualitatively and quantitatively.

Accurate characterization of glioma is crucial for clinical decision making. A delineation of the tumor is also desirable in the initial decision stages but is a time-consuming task. Leveraging the latest GPU capabilities, we developed a single multi -task convolutional neural network that uses the full 3D, structural, pre-operative MRI scans to can predict the IDH mutation status, the 1p/19q co-deletion status, and the grade of a tumor, while simultaneously segmenting the tumor. We trained our method using the largest, most diverse patient cohort to date containing 1508 glioma patients from 16 institutes. We tested our method on an independent dataset of 240 patients from 13 different institutes, and achieved an IDH-AUC of 0.90, 1p/19q-AUC of 0.85, grade-AUC of 0.81, and a mean whole tumor DICE score of 0.84. Thus, our method non-invasively predicts multiple, clinically relevant parameters and generalizes well to the broader clinical population.
The automatic detection of frames containing polyps from a colonoscopy video sequence is an important first step for a fully automated colonoscopy analysis tool. Typically, such detection system is built using a large annotated data set of frames wit h and without polyps, which is expensive to be obtained. In this paper, we introduce a new system that detects frames containing polyps as anomalies from a distribution of frames from exams that do not contain any polyps. The system is trained using a one-class training set consisting of colonoscopy frames without polyps -- such training set is considerably less expensive to obtain, compared to the 2-class data set mentioned above. During inference, the system is only able to reconstruct frames without polyps, and when it tries to reconstruct a frame with polyp, it automatically removes (i.e., photoshop) it from the frame -- the difference between the input and reconstructed frames is used to detect frames with polyps. We name our proposed model as anomaly detection generative adversarial network (ADGAN), comprising a dual GAN with two generators and two discriminators. We show that our proposed approach achieves the state-of-the-art result on this data set, compared with recently proposed anomaly detection systems.
Deep learning for medical imaging suffers from temporal and privacy-related restrictions on data availability. To still obtain viable models, continual learning aims to train in sequential order, as and when data is available. The main challenge that continual learning methods face is to prevent catastrophic forgetting, i.e., a decrease in performance on the data encountered earlier. This issue makes continuous training of segmentation models for medical applications extremely difficult. Yet, often, data from at least two different domains is available which we can exploit to train the model in a way that it disregards domain-specific information. We propose an architecture that leverages the simultaneous availability of two or more datasets to learn a disentanglement between the content and domain in an adversarial fashion. The domain-invariant content representation then lays the base for continual semantic segmentation. Our approach takes inspiration from domain adaptation and combines it with continual learning for hippocampal segmentation in brain MRI. We showcase that our method reduces catastrophic forgetting and outperforms state-of-the-art continual learning methods.
In this paper, we present a novel adversarial lossy video compression model. At extremely low bit-rates, standard video coding schemes suffer from unpleasant reconstruction artifacts such as blocking, ringing etc. Existing learned neural approaches t o video compression have achieved reasonable success on reducing the bit-rate for efficient transmission and reduce the impact of artifacts to an extent. However, they still tend to produce blurred results under extreme compression. In this paper, we present a deep adversarial learned video compression model that minimizes an auxiliary adversarial distortion objective. We find this adversarial objective to correlate better with human perceptual quality judgement relative to traditional quality metrics such as MS-SSIM and PSNR. Our experiments using a state-of-the-art learned video compression system demonstrate a reduction of perceptual artifacts and reconstruction of detail lost especially under extremely high compression.
Frozen sectioning (FS) is the preparation method of choice for microscopic evaluation of tissues during surgical operations. The high speed of the procedure allows pathologists to rapidly assess the key microscopic features, such as tumour margins an d malignant status to guide surgical decision-making and minimise disruptions to the course of the operation. However, FS is prone to introducing many misleading artificial structures (histological artefacts), such as nuclear ice crystals, compression, and cutting artefacts, hindering timely and accurate diagnostic judgement of the pathologist. Additional training and prolonged experience is often required to make highly effective and time-critical diagnosis on frozen sections. On the other hand, the gold standard tissue preparation technique of formalin-fixation and paraffin-embedding (FFPE) provides significantly superior image quality, but is a very time-consuming process (12-48 hours), making it unsuitable for intra-operative use. In this paper, we propose an artificial intelligence (AI) method that improves FS image quality by computationally transforming frozen-sectioned whole-slide images (FS-WSIs) into whole-slide FFPE-style images in minutes. AI-FFPE rectifies FS artefacts with the guidance of an attention mechanism that puts a particular emphasis on artefacts while utilising a self-regularization mechanism established between FS input image and synthesized FFPE-style image that preserves clinically relevant features. As a result, AI-FFPE method successfully generates FFPE-style images without significantly extending tissue processing time and consequently improves diagnostic accuracy. We demonstrate the efficacy of AI-FFPE on lung and brain frozen sections using a variety of different qualitative and quantitative metrics including visual Turing tests from 20 board certified pathologists.
