and Privacy in Vehicular Networks Abstract: Vehicular
networks, as an important application of Internet of things in the automotive
industry, and as the core component of intelligent transportation system, can
realize all-round network connection and efficient information interaction
between vehicles and other nearby vehicles, road infrastructures, pedestrians,
and network, etc., so as to provide various information services, improve
driving safety and efficiency, and promote energy saving and emission
reduction. Vehicular networks are regarded as a global innovation hotspot and
an important commanding point of economic development, with huge industrial
development potential and application market space. However, due to the large,
open, highly dynamic, delay sensitive, and other characteristics, the security,
trust, and privacy in vehicular networks face huge challenges. Thus, this talk will
focus on highlighting the recent advances, challenges, and approaches for the
security, trust, and privacy in vehicular networks.

Talk Titel: Recent research work on AI medical Diagnosis Abstract
Part A: Development of a Chromosome Classification Approach Using Deep Convolutional Networks. Bottlenecks of chromosome classification are analyzed. A flowchart of the proposed Varifocal-Net is proposed, including global-scale and local-scale feature learning, and classification based on the fused features. Part B: SEGMENTATION METHODS FOR CHEST CT IMAGE ANALYSIS. A flowchart of the proposed pulmonary nodule segmentation framework is presented. A voxel-connectivity-aware approach for accurate airway segmentation using convolutional neural networks is presented. A flowchart of the proposed method for pulmonary airway and artery-vein segmentation is introduced. More than 10 papers about the above research have been published in top journals (e.g. TMI) and top conferences (e.g. MICCAI).
