The spiculation sign is one of the main signs to distinguish benign and malignant pulmonary nodules. In order to effectively extract the image feature of a pulmonary nodule for the spiculation sign distinguishment, a new spiculation sign recognition ...
Robustness is an important aspect when evaluating a method of medical image analysis. In this study, we investigated the robustness of a deep learning (DL)-based lung-nodule classification model for CT images with respect to noise perturbations. A de...
Due to the inter- and intra- variation of respiratory motion, it is highly desired to provide real-time volumetric images during the treatment delivery of lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for accurate and active motion management. In t...
An important need exists for reliable positron emission tomography (PET) tumor-segmentation methods for tasks such as PET-based radiation-therapy planning and reliable quantification of volumetric and radiomic features. To address this need, we propo...

Precise biomarker development is a key step in disease management. However, most of the published biomarkers were derived from a relatively small number of samples with supervised approaches. Recent advances in unsupervised machine learning promise t...
Nonnegative sparse representation has become a popular methodology in medical analysis and diagnosis in recent years. In order to resolve network degradation, higher dimensionality in feature extraction, data redundancy, and other issues faced when m...

Classifying ground-glass lung nodules (GGNs) into atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA), and invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) on diagnostic CT images is important to evaluate the th...
Lung cancer is a prominent type of cancer, which leads to high mortality rate worldwide. The major lung cancers lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous carcinoma (LUSC) occur mainly due to somatic driver mutations in proteins and screening of su...
Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in Canada, and accurate, early diagnosis are critical to improving clinical outcomes. Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based imaging analytics are a promising healthcare innovation that aim to improve the ac...
The composition and relative abundances of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment are key factors affecting the progression of lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs) and the efficacy of immunotherapy. Using the cancer gene expression dataset from The Cance...
