Team designs model to automatically detect shadows in aerial images

by Janese Heavin
Examples of automatically labeling shadows in an image. A Mizzou Engineering team has designed a physics-based model to automatically detect shadows in large-scale aerial images — a development that could lead to improvements in self-driving cars, drones and autonomous robotics. The research team published and presented their findings at the International Conference on Computer Vision [...]

Engineering team develops system to segment, track cells from images

by Janese Heavin
Rina Bao and Noor Al-Shakarji developed a system to segment and track cells from microscopy video images. A Mizzou Engineering team won a Best Paper Award at an international workshop earlier this month. Rina Bao, who just completed her PhD, and PhD student Noor Al-Shakarji received the accolade for developing a two-stream deep learning network [...]

Mizzou Team to Use AI to Grow Carbon Nanotubes in Mass Quantities

by Janese Heavin
A team of Mizzou Engineers is turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to help grow and control large quantities of carbon nanotubes—tiny, cylinder-shaped molecules made of rolled sheets of carbon. Using AI is a novel approach to mass producing them, a problem that has plagued scientists for decades. Now, the National Science Foundation is backing the [...]
