UMRAM/ASBAM Spring 2023 Seminars: “Novel MRI Techniques in Pediatric Neuroimaging”

Assist. Prof. Onur Afacan Harvard Medical School Boston Children’s Hospital   Date/Time: Thursday, April 19th, 5:30 pm Meeting ID: 926 8664 5941 (Passcode: 896970) https://zoom.us/j/92686645941?pwd=ZEpFcTNzNVFTdnVJdkZmZmQwUzQ2QT09   Abstract: Pediatric neuroimaging is challenging due to several reasons. The first reason is that young patients cannot hold still in the scanner, and the resultant motion significantly deteriorates image quality, often making it […]

UMRAM/ASBAM Spring 2023 Seminars: “Layers of primary visual cortex as a window into internal models about predicted and simulated environments: Human fMRI, and monkey and rodent neuroscience”

Prof. Lars Muckli School of Psychology & Neuroscience University of Glasgow Date/Time: Thursday, March 16th, 12:30 pm Meeting ID: 941 2425 2490 (Passcode: 896970) https://zoom.us/j/94124252490?pwd=T0JJMTdBd0tvZU1HeUJrUXhuYWdZQT09 Abstract: Normal brain function involves the interaction of internal processes with incoming sensory stimuli. We have created a series of brain imaging experiments (using 7T fMRI) that sample internal models and feedback mechanisms in early visual cortex. […]

UMRAM/ASBAM Spring 2023 Seminars: “Spatiotemporal Brain Dynamics during Sleep and Wake”

Dr. Pınar Özbay Institute of Biomedical Engineering Boğaziçi University Date/Time: Friday, March 3rd, 5:30 pm Meeting ID: 939 1193 4398 (Passcode: 896970) https://zoom.us/j/93911934398?pwd=aHlWeG1YejU1U05rRG5yNjJjRzFFQT09 Abstract: It is well known that functional MRI (fMRI) signal variations covary, in part, with fluctuations in physiological signals. Since fluctuations in systemic physiology are likely to occur during various conditions, such as wakefulness, drowsiness, […]

Trainable Fractional Fourier Transform

Please check our new article at the intersection of machine learning and signal processing published at IEEE Signal Processing Letters! We extend the theory of FrFT, a parametric signal transformation, by introducing it as a trainable layer in neural network architectures. We showed that the transformation parameters can be learned along with the remaining network […]
