Short CV
I enjoy research in medical image analysis, computer vision, and machine learning.
I received a Ph.D degree in Computer Science (CS) from the University of Copenhagen (DIKU), Denmark in 2012, advised by Mads Nielsen and Sami Brandt. During my PhD, I spent half a year in the CS Department at Stanford University under the supervision of Andrew Ng. Previously, I graduated with a Diploma (equivalent to MSc) in CS from the University of Freiburg in Germany. During my Diploma, I was a visiting scholar for half a year at the University of Western Australia and for one year at the University of South Australia.
Research Interests
I am particularly interested in
- developing biomarkers for breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and osteoporosis
- segmentation methods, deep learning, shape modeling, Bayesian methods, probabilistic graphical models, and domain adaptation.
