  NSF sponsored REU at the Center for Research in Computer Vision (CRCV), under the direction of Dr. Ulas Bagci. Implemented and modified hand crafted feature detection techniques: bag of frequencies, taxonomic diversity and taxonomic distinctness. Combined hand crafted features with deep learning features for automatic lung nodule detection in Computed Tomography (CT) scans.
