Binary Neural Networks for Object Detection

In the past few years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely utilized and shown state-of-the-art performances on computer vision tasks. However, CNN based approaches usually require a large amount of storage, run-time memory, as well as computation power in both training and inference time, which are usually used on GPU based...

Towards Robust Object Detection in Unseen Catheterization Laboratories

Deep-learning-based object detectors, while offering exceptional performance, are data-dependent and can suffer from generalization issues. In this thesis, we investigated deep neural networks for detecting people and medical instruments in the vision-based workflow analysis system inside Catheterization Laboratories (Cath Labs). The central...
