We are hosting an #Ilastik workshop on March 27th, led by Dominik Kutra, senior research software engineer @ilastik-team.bsky.social
The course is open to students and staff at @crick.ac.uk and partner universities (@ucl.ac.uk, @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social and @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social)
The first meeting was a blast and the second one promises to be even better - if you submit your abstract and join us!
Yay for more accessible tools, Ricardo, congrats on bringing it all together! Hope to see the models in the BioImage Model Zoo soon ;)
Thanks, nice to see more opportunities around the world! We will probably go to EurIPS, but hope you have a great one in Mexico.
In more detail, check out this deep dive tutorial to learn about the trade-offs in feature normalisation strategies inside the network and how the affect segmentation performance: buglakova.github.io/train-eval-d...
Large images have to be broken into tiles both for training and inference with neural networks. The tile predictions then need to be merged to produce the final volume prediction.
Segment large images without tiling artifacts: sharing our work that should have been presented at ICCV in 2 weeks - the brilliant first author Elena can’t go because of visa issues.
