BIO:
Assaf Spanier is a highly experienced algorithm developer and software programmer, specializing in medical image processing and computer vision, deep learning and machine learning. Assaf took part in numerous projects and research and development projects, both, in the industry and academia, with emphasis on medical image processing algorithms, statistical inference and machine and deep learning.
Assaf Hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science from Hadassah College, Jerusalem, And an ME in Biomedical Engineering from the Technion. In his Master’s thesis Assaf developed a classification method based on EEG signals to distinguish healthy patients, in order to distinguish the treatment effect. Assaf received a Ph.D. from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 2017. For his PhD thesis Assaf developed an end-to-end system for image retrieval. Assaf's PhD title was "Structure-Specific Automatic Multi-Parametric Medical Image Analysis and Retrieval"
Research interests:
