Engineering team places first, third at inaugural segmentation challenge

A Mizzou Engineering team took first and third place at a new competition aimed to advance methods to not only detect but also trace the 3D shape of a specific type of brain lesion in newborns. The BONBID-HIE Lesion Segmentation Challenge was part of the International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI 2023) and sponsored by Boston Children’s Hospital and its Fetal-Neonatal Neuroimaging Developmental Science Center and Harvard Medical School.

Team designs model to automatically detect shadows in aerial images

A Mizzou Engineering team has designed a physics-based model to automatically detect shadows in large-scale aerial images.

Engineering team develops system to segment, track cells from images

A Mizzou Engineering team won a Best Paper Award at an international workshop for work around detecting and tracking cells in microscopy videos.

Mizzou Engineer develops software tool to investigate root growth

A Mizzou Engineer has developed a software tool that could enable farmers to develop crop cultivars that are drought resistant, ensuring roots can reach falling water tables, adapt to warmer temperatures and be more resilient to environmental changes.

Mapping the Cities of the World One Building at a Time from Space

A group of four computer science PhD students in the Computational Imaging and VisAnalysis Lab at Mizzou Engineering took the top spot in the graduate student category at the 24th Conference on Neural and Information Processing Systems SpaceNet 7 competition.

CAVE to Provide Immersive Virtual Experience

Imagine studying a protein by walking through its three-dimensional structure. Or researching traffic patterns by standing alongside a virtual highway. Or safely exploring the structural integrity of a house while it’s on fire. Mizzou Engineers will soon have the capability to do these things, thanks to a CAVE opening this year in Lafferre Hall.

Mizzou Engineering Hosts Virtual AIPR Conference

Mizzou Engineering hosted the 49th annual Applied Imagery Pattern Recognition (AIPR) conference last week, proving that a virtual event can be just as robust as meeting in person.
