Title
Applications of Deep Learning for the Automatic or Semi-automatic Detection of Lung Abnormalities
Summary
I want to explore the applicability of deep learning in the effective segmentation of classification of lesions from lung images. I intend to first use pre-trained models like GoogLeNet, AlexNet, VGGNet et cetera, on the images. Then I intend to design my own CNN classifier to see if I can improve the classification accuracy any further.
Aims

- Applicability of deep learning in classification and segmentation of abnormalities in lung images
- Transfer learning
- Few-shot learning
