Pragmatic Deep Learning for Medical Imagery with Prashant Warier - TWiML Talk #165
In this episode I'm joined by Prashant Warier, CEO and Co-Founder of Qure.ai. We discuss the company’s work building products for interpreting head CT scans and chest x-rays. We look at knowledge gained in bringing a commercial product to market, including what the gap between academic research papers and commercially viable software, the challenge of data acquisition and more. We also touch on the application of transfer learning. For the complete show notes, visit https://twimlai.com/talk/165.
