Echo videos are an important modality for cardiac decision support. In addition to describing the shape and motion of the heart, they capture important diagnostic measurements as textual feature-value pairs that are good indicators of the underlying disease. In this paper, we describe reliable extraction of such textual information through selective image processing and region extraction prior to...
Echocardiography is often used to diagnose cardiac diseases related to regional and valvular motion abnormalities. Due to the low resolution of the imaging modality, the choice of viewpoint and mode, and the experience of the sonographers, there is a large variance in the estimation of important diagnostic measurements such as ejection fraction. In this paper, we develop an automatic algorithm to...
Spatio-temporal alignment of electronic slides with corresponding presentation video opens up a number of possibilities for making the instructional content more accessible and understandable, such as video quality improvement, better content analysis and novel compression approaches for low bandwidth access. However, these applications need finding accurate transformations between slides and video...
The rapid adoption of distance learning means that significant lecture video content is available on-line. However, access from mobile devices is hampered by low bandwidth and small screen size. In this paper, we address these issues by manipulating two key elements of lecture video-displayed slides and laser pointer gestures. Displayed slides need to be very crisp compared to background content....
Diagnostic decision support is still very much an art for physicians in their practices today due to lack of quantitative tools. AALIM is a decision support system for cardiology that exploits the consensus opinions of other physicians who have looked at similar patients, to present statistical reports summarizing possible diagnoses. The key idea behind our statistical decision support system is the...
