    报告内容简介:

    Recent progress in infant MRI technology allows us to track the dynamic brain developmental trajectories in vivo during the first year of life, which can greatly increase our very limited knowledge on normal early brain development, and also provide important insights into early neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. However, the existing neuroimaging computational tools, which were mainly developed for older children and adult brains, are ill-suited for infant brain studies, due to great challenges in tissue segmentation and labeling, caused by the extremely low contrast, insufficient resolution, severe partial volume effects, and dynamic growth. In this presentation, Dr. Wang will introduce learning-based methods for infant brain images analysis, including tissue segmentation of cerebrum and cerebellum, hippocampal subfield, and imaging-biomarkers for early diagnosis of autism.
