Jaime S. Cardoso, licenciado em Engenharia e Eletrotécnica e de Computadores em 1999, Mestre em Engenharia Matemática em 2005 e doutorado em Visão Computacional em 2006, todos pela Universidade do Porto. Professor Associado com agregação na Faculdade de Engenharia da Universidade do Porto (FEUP) e Investigador Sénior em 'Information Processing and Pattern Recognition' no Centro de Telecomunicações e Multimédia do INESC TEC.

A sua investigação assenta em três grandes domínios: visão computacional, "machine learning" e sistemas de suporte à decisão. A investigação em processamento de imagem e vídeo tem abordado a área de biometria, imagem médica e "video tracking" para aplicações de vigilância e desportos. O trabalho em "machine learning" foca-se na adaptação de sistemas de aprendizagem às condições desafiantes de informação visual. A ênfase dos sistemas de suporte à decisão tem sido dirigida a aplicações médicas, sempre ancoradas com a análise automática de informação visual.

É co-autor de mais de 150 artigos, dos quais mais de 50 em jornais internacionais, com mais de 6500 citações (google scholar). Foi investigador principal em 6 projectos de I&D e participou em 14 projectos de I&D, incluindo 5 projectos europeus e um contrato directo com a BBC do Reino Unido.

Abstract
Microscopic techniques in low-to-middle income countries are constrained by the lack of adequate equipment and trained operators. Since light microscopy delivers crucial methods for the diagnosis and screening of numerous diseases, several efforts have been made by the scientific community to develop low-cost devices such as 3D-printed portable microscopes. Nevertheless, these devices present some drawbacks that directly affect image quality: the capture of the samples is done via mobile phones; more affordable lenses are usually used, leading to poorer physical properties and images with lower depth of field; misalignments in the microscopic set-up regarding optical, mechanical, and illumination components are frequent, causing image distortions such as chromatic aberrations. This work investigates several pre-processing methods to tackle the presented issues and proposed a new workflow for low-cost microscopy. Additionally, two new deep learning models based on Convolutional Neural Networks are also proposed (EDoF-CNN-Fast and EDoF-CNN-Pairwise) to generate Extended Depth of Field (EDoF) images, and compared against state-of-the-art approaches. The models were tested using two different datasets of cytology microscopic images: public Cervix93 and a new dataset that has been made publicly available containing images captured with µSmartScope. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed workflow can achieve state-of-the-art performance when generating EDoF images from low-cost microscopes. © 2022 The Author(s)

MEDICAL IMAGE ANALYSIS

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common and lethal form of cancer in women. Recent efforts have focused on developing accurate neural network-based computer-aided diagnosis systems for screening to help anticipate this disease. The ultimate goal is to reduce mortality and improve quality of life after treatment. Due to the difficulty in collecting and annotating data in this domain, data scarcity is - and will continue to be - a limiting factor. In this work, we present a unified view of different regularization methods that incorporate domain-known symmetries in the model. Three general strategies were followed: (i) data augmentation, (ii) invariance promotion in the loss function, and (iii) the use of equivariant architectures. Each of these strategies encodes different priors on the functions learned by the model and can be readily introduced in most settings. Empirically we show that the proposed symmetry-based regularization procedures improve generalization to unseen examples. This advantage is verified in different scenarios, datasets and model architectures. We hope that both the principle of symmetry-based regularization and the concrete methods presented can guide development towards more data-efficient methods for breast cancer screening as well as other medical imaging domains.

Abstract
Semantic segmentation consists of classifying each pixel according to a set of classes. Conventional models spend as much effort classifying easy-to-segment pixels as they do classifying hard-to-segment pixels. This is inefficient, especially when deploying to situations with computational constraints. In this work, we propose a framework wherein the model first produces a rough segmentation of the image, and then patches of the image estimated as hard to segment are refined. The framework is evaluated in four datasets (autonomous driving and biomedical), across four state-of-the-art architectures. Our method accelerates inference time by four, with additional gains for training time, at the cost of some output quality.
