  Thesis (Project 2) - Deep Learning Models to Characterize Smooth Muscle Fibers in Hematoxylin and Eosin Stained Histopathological Images of the Urinary Bladder. Two methodologies were compared and contrasted; patch-based approach (CNN models like ResNet18, AlexNet, SqueezeNet) and pixel-based approach (like Unet, MaNet, DeepLabV3+). Project 1 - I have also worked on determining nucleosome occupancy for different human transcription factors using ChIP-seq and MNase-seq data in python… Show more Thesis (Project 2) - Deep Learning Models to Characterize Smooth Muscle Fibers in Hematoxylin and Eosin Stained Histopathological Images of the Urinary Bladder.
