Researchers and students at Pattern Recognition Lab (LME) work on the development and implementation of algorithms to classify and analyze patterns like images or speech. The research is mostly interdisciplinary and is focussed on medical- and health engineering. The LME has close national and international collaborations with other universities, research institutes and industrial partners. 

A summary of the projects at the Pattern Recognition Lab is available for download as a comprehensive brochure (PDF). 

• Research Areas
  

  • Pattern Recognition & Machine Learning

    

    Pattern Recognition deals with the automatic classification and analysis of sensor input data. In this area we have work groups in Speech Recognition and Understanding, Computer Vision, Multiple Criteria Optimization, Image Analysis, Image Segmentation, and Image Fusion.

    Medical Image Processing

    

    The research area medical image processing investigates formation and analysis of images in medicine. Currently the groups Analytic Reconstruction and Consistency, Computed Tomography: Algebraic Reconstruction and Motion, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Phase-Contrast Imaging, and Ophthalmic Imaging are working on such topics.

    Big Data Applications

    

    With the sheer amount of "big data", new opportunities are available also for pattern recognition and machine learning. Examples are deep learning and precision learning. In this area, we have the groups of Learning Approaches for Medical Big Data Analysis, Population Modelling, and Enterprise Computing.
