System-Characterized Artificial Intelligence Approaches For Cardiac Cellular Systems And Molecular Signature Analysis, Ziqian Wu Jun 2023

System-Characterized Artificial Intelligence Approaches For Cardiac Cellular Systems And Molecular Signature Analysis, Ziqian Wu

Dartmouth College Ph.D Dissertations

The dissertation presents a significant advancement in the field of cardiac cellular systems and molecular signature systems by employing machine learning and generative artificial intelligence techniques. These methodologies are systematically characterized and applied to address critical challenges in these domains. A novel computational model is developed, which combines machine learning tools and multi-physics models. The main objective of this model is to accurately predict complex cellular dynamics, taking into account the intricate interactions within the cardiac cellular system. Furthermore, a comprehensive framework based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) is proposed. This framework is designed to generate synthetic data that faithfully …


A Convolutional Neural Network For Fast Fluence Estimation In Complex Tissues, Nicholas Blasey, Geoffrey P. Luke Jun 2020

A Convolutional Neural Network For Fast Fluence Estimation In Complex Tissues, Nicholas Blasey, Geoffrey P. Luke

ENGS 88 Honors Thesis (AB Students)

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique that gives images of photoabsorbers based on their absorption of optical energy. These optical absorption properties can then be linked to important tissue properties. For the method to be quantitative, however, it is necessary to have an accurate estimation of the light fluence in the tissue. The current gold standard in addressing the fluence estimation problem, a Monte Carlo Simulation, is costly in time and computation. In this work, we developed a deep neural network to quickly and accurately estimate light fluence in arbitrary tissue types and geometries. The network was …
