Postgraduate Researcher
University of Malaya
·
Oct 2023 - Sep 2024
AI-driven healthcare deep learning model for myocardial infarction detection using AP4-echocardiogram videos, running frame-by-frame analysis.
Utilized a pre-trained U-Net model to segment the left ventricle from A4C echocardiogram frames and extracted contours for GLS analysis.
Optimized an existing LSTM model to classify myocardial infarction from GLS time-series data across six ventricular regions, resolving performance and bug issues to make it workflow-ready.
Explored and utilized machine learning/deep learning libraries, including PyTorch, OpenCV, TensorFlow, and Scikit-learn, for model development and optimization.
Bridged communication between cardiologists at UiTM Hospital and the technical team, translating clinical jargons into computational requirements and ensuring alignment between medical expectations and technical implementation.
