Re: [Scaffoldhunter-devel] GSOC project: Interactive Image Query Formation

[<as...@it...>]

Hi Girish,

Thank you for your interest in this project and apologies for the  
lateness of the response.

Your subject line referred to the "Interactive Image Query  
Formulation" project while the link in the body of your message was to  
the "Image Visual Feature Selection" project. Could you please clarify  
which of the two you were interested in?

In both of these projects we are particularly interested in how the  
knowledge of expert users (such as radiologists in medical image  
retrieval) could be incorporated as part of the query formulation and  
feature selection processes. This could potentially be part of a  
feedback loop. As such, we would be dealing with traditional image  
features alongside semantic features/interpretation as specified by an  
individual. We are interested in using ScaffoldHunter as a platform  
for enabling such interactions with the retrieval process. As such, it  
would be interesting to see if your suggested approach could be  
adapted to incorporate real-time input.

For this work we would be looking at using public data sets like LIDC  
(link below).

Please let me know if you have any further questions or would like  
extra information about other aspects of the project.

Regards,
Ashnil
