What Cohort INRs Encode and Where to Freeze Them

Vasiliki Sideri-Lampretsa, Sophie Starck, Robbie Holland +2

Reusing the early layers of cohort-trained INRs as initialization for new signals has been shown to accelerate and improve signal fitting, yet it remains unclear which layers of th…

Opportunistic Cardiac Health Assessment: Estimating Phenotypes from Localizer MRI through Multi-Modal Representations

Busra Nur Zeybek, Özgün Turgut, Yundi Zhang +5

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death. Cardiac phenotypes (CPs), e.g., ejection fraction, are the gold standard for assessing cardiac health, but they are derived…
