We built an AI tool to help avoid environmental disasters
Artificial intelligence helps us more and more with decision-making in fields such as medicine, transportation, and information retrieval. In collaboration with Equinor, Norway’s biggest oil and gas company, we have now added another field to the list: Interpreting integrity logs from oil and gas wells. Together, we built an AI-based assistant for Equinor’s log interpreters that they are now using in their daily work.
Open source processing of ultrasound images with the USTB
The UltraSound ToolBox (USTB), is a collaboration between several international institutions lead by former and current CIUS researchers Alfonso Rodriguez-Molares, (University of Vigo, Spain), Ole Marius Hoel Rindal (UiO and SINTEF) and Stefano Fiorentini (NTNU). It is an open source toolbox for processing of ultrasonic signals, where researchers can share and compare processing methods for ultrasound imaging.
Hit the nerve with ultrasound and artificial intelligence
Imagine hitting a hole-in-one in golf every single time you try, with limited vision and only one hand. This is how it is to administer regional anaesthetics using ultrasound. Read more in the original blog post at Forskning.no: Treff nerven med ultralyd og kunstig intelligens
Ultrasound automation simplifies detection of heart failure
Using an application developed at NTNU, helps physicians detect more patients with reduced heart function when assessing heart pump function in patients with suspected heart failure using ultrasound. Heart failure is a common disease among the elderly. Increased use of ultrasound of the heart or…
Interpreting ultrasound images with neural networks
Neural networks have recently achieved incredible results for recognising objects such as cats, coffee cups, cars and plants in photographs. These methods are already used by companies like Facebook and Google to identify faces, recognize voice commands and even enable self-driving cars. At the Centre…
