How to use artificial intelligence to analyse blood samples or to detect when a child is accessing an inappropriate website? Here are some of the projects submitted for the International Create Challenge (ICC) 2018 hosted and supported by Idiap until September 18th.
The Urbis project, which is a collaboration on citizen participation and mobile crowdsourcing between IPICYT Mexico and Idiap, was presented at the First National Forum on Science, Technology and Innovation in Mexico City on August 8 2018. The event was organized by the National Council of Science and Technology.
What if artificial intelligence could analyze an electro-cardiogram (ECG) or a medical image scan and highlight results that physicians should be looking at in priority? Thanks to signal and image processing, and machine learning techniques, that is the goal of the new Biosignal Processing Group at the Idiap Research Institute.
