CROSS-MODALITY NEURAL NETWORK TRANSFORM FOR SEMI-AUTOMATIC MEDICAL IMAGE ANNOTATION

Abstract:

A cross-modality neural network transform for semi-automatic medical image annotation is provided. In various embodiments, an input medical image is mapped to a first vector in a text vector space. The first vector corresponds to the features of the medical image. A set of predetermined vectors is searched for a closest one of the predetermined vectors to the first vector. From the closest one of the predetermined vectors, one or more keywords is determined describing the input medical image.
