Production Measurement and Testing Technology


Industrial and Medical Imaging

  • Machine Learning Based Image Registration with Fully Convolution Networks

     

    Motivation & Aim of the Project

    The aim of this work is the further development of machine learning-based image registration. For this, the existing implementation z. B. can be expanded and improved by a fully convolutional implementation. Additional network architectures such as Pyramid Networks or Spatial Transformer Networks are to be implemented and examined. The background is that, as with a panorama photo, several microscope images are combined to form an overall image in order to be able to evaluate and characterize a larger area. It is essential that the assembly errors are as small as possible.

    In this project, aspects of image processing, surface measurement technology and machine learning are important. Basic knowledge in these areas and programming (with Python) in general is recommended.

Supervision of External Project

Requirements

The topic of the student thesis must match the current research focus of the institute (control engineering, acoustics, robotics, optical measurement technology, image processing) and meet sufficient scientific requirements.


For the supervision of a master’s thesis, we expect that you have previously written a very good student thesis at the IMR or that you have successfully worked as a research assistant at the IMR.


For the supervision of a bachelor thesis / student research thesis, we expect that you can show good to very good results in the IMR lectures and / or have successfully worked as a research assistant at the IMR.

Preparation

Identify the IMR working group that is technically appropriate for your topic.


Contact the respective leader of the selected working group. In your request, summarize the key points of your work (company, general topic). Also state the extent to which you meet the requirements of the IMR.


The group leader will check your documents and give you feedback on possible support. In addition, the group leader will prepare a scientific article, which should be summarized in preparation for the conversation. This serves to ensure the scientific quality of the work.


In consultation with the external institution, prepare a detailed draft assignment and a schedule for carrying out the work.


Make an appointment for a preliminary talk accompanied by your external supervisor, for which you will work out a detailed task and the schedule and bring with you.

Procedure During the Project

The topic must be presented as part of the preliminary talk so that it can be ensured that the task meets the scientific requirements in accordance with the examination regulations.


A presentation of the scope and progress of work at the IMR is planned for half of the processing period. A final presentation is expected at the end of the work.
