Leveraging Network Science for the Exploration of Deep Learning Latent Representations
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-12-15)Deep Neural networks has pushed the boundary for what is achievable in the field of machine learning. At its core the Neural network maps data from an input space, to a highly abstract latent space. The representations of these latent mappings are critical for the neural networks ability to perform the task it is given. However critical, our knowledge on these abstract representations in the latent ... -
Leveraging Explainability Maps for Group-unsupervised Robustness to Spurious Correlations
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-08-22)Shortcut learning, the tendency for models to rely on spurious correlations, is a widespread issue in deep learning. Although being a known issue, uncovering the shortcuts present in a dataset can be a difficult task. Over the last few years, explainability methods have been leveraged to find previously unknown shortcuts within mainstream datasets. However, how to best mitigate a model’s reliance ... -

With the aim of recommending a suitable model to be part of a CV system for an industrial fish gutting machine that ... -
Exploring the Behavior of Open-Source Diffusion Model Inpainting Algorithms
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-01-26)The present study aimed to examine the performance of an open-source diffusion model inpainting algorithm under varying conditions of inpainting strength and mask radius. However, the results obtained were unexpected and raise significant concerns. Our findings indicate that the algorithm not only modifies the pixels within the designated mask, as intended, but also alters pixels out side of the ... -

Second, test and compare a few stateof-the-art object detectors in both quantitative and qualitative manner. Third, based ... -
Deep Representation-aligned Graph Multi-view Clustering for Limited Labeled Multi-modal Health Data
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Today, many fields are characterised by having extensive quantities of data from a wide range of dissimilar sources and domains. One such field is medicine, in which data contain exhaustive combinations of spatial, temporal, linear, and relational data. Often lacking expert-assessed labels, much of this data would require analysis within the fields of unsupervised or semi-supervised learning. Thus, ... -
Inference Guided Few-Shot Segmentation
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-06-22)Few-shot segmentation has in recent years gotten a lot of attention. The reason is its ability to segment images from classes based on only a handful of labeled support images. This opens up many possibilities when the need for a big dataset is removed. To do this a few-shot segmentation network need to extract as much quality information from each support image as possible. In this thesis we ... -
Machine Learning for Classifying Marine Vegetation from Hyperspectral Drone Data in the Norwegian coast
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-30)Along the Norwegian coasts the presence of blue forests are the key marine habitats. Due to increased anthropogenic activity and climate change, the health and extent of the blue forests is threatened. However, no low-cost, reliable system for monitoring blue forests exists in Norway at this time. This thesis studied machine learning methods to classify marine vegetation from hyperspectral data ... -
Validating Uncertainty-Aware Virtual Sensors For Industry 4.0
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-01-26)In industry 4.0 manufacturing, sensors provide information about the state, behavior, and performance of processes. Therefore, one of the main goals of Industry 4.0 is to collect high-quality data to realize its business goal, namely zero-defect manufacturing, and high-quality products. However, hardware sensors cannot always gather quality data due to several factors. First, industrial 4.0 deploys ... -
ConvMixerSeg: Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation for CT Liver Images
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-12-17)The predictive power of modern deep learning approaches is posed to revolutionize the medical imaging field, however, their usefulness and applicability are severely limited by the lack of well annotated data. Liver segmentation in CT images is an application that could benefit particularly well from less data hungry methods and potentially lead to better liver volume estimation and tumor detection. ... -

(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-06-21)This work is about classifying time series with missing data with the help of imputation and selected machine learning algorithms and methods. The author has used imputation to replace missing values in two data sets, one containing surgical site infection (SSI) data of 11 types of blood samples of patients over 20 days, and another data set called uwave which contain 3D accelerometer data of several ... -
Investigating the Impact of Susceptibility Artifacts on Adjacent Tumors in PET/MRI through Simulated Tomography Experiments
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-06-01)For quantitative PET imaging, attenuation correction (AC) is mandatory. Currently, all main vendors of hybrid PET/MRI systems apply a segmentation-based approach to compute a Dixon AC-map based on fat and water images derived from in- and opposed-phase MR-images. Changes in magnetic susceptibility pose major problems for MRI, which may lead to artifacts resulting in tissue misclassification in the ... -

Numerical and experimental investigation of absorbing polymer films suitable for boundary photoacoustic imaging
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-07-13)One of the main challenges in conventional photoacoustic methods, is that thin biological samples typically have low optical absorption in the visible region. Therefore, it is often necessary to stain or label the sample with a color which provide sufficient absorption for the laser wavelength used in the scanning system. Unfortunately, the labeling often introduce unwanted properties to the biological ...
