CSE Department Summer Internship Presentation Date November 14th 2008 Time 10-11:30 Place JBH359 (Probably) Presenter Aram Acemyan Advisor: Dr. Concepcion Title Evaluating the Performance of 3D Nuclei Detection Algorithms Abstract In the growing field of biological computing it has become important to create standard methods of evaluating segmentation and detection algorithms. With many researchers coming up with their own methods of segmentation it is important to have a way to score each algorithm and determine who's algorithms are performing best. These evaluation algorithms are important for creating benchmarks for evaluation and analysis. The 3D Nuclei Detection Evaluation is used to rate the results of 3D nuclei detection algorithms.
