Hello all! #introduction
I'm a Postdoc at CUHK working at the application of #MachineLearning, #Neuroscience in Psychology.
Love to see you all at Mastodon!! Great to meet you all in the decentralized social network!!
I have three cats and two dogs :)
@wood Sadly instances which are abusive with their block lists tend to not publish their block lists for fear their users might jump ship as a response or not join in the first place.
You can always ask the admin i suppose... Are you able to follow and see woto accounts from there? If so then it is likely a silence and not a block. If not it is a block.
@wood is it possible counter.social has us blocked. Many instances are very excessive in their blocking usually for very silly reasons (like blocking an instance simply because they dont block some other instance)
@freemo I dunno if this will scratch the same itch since it's purely computational, but it looks like you can try playing around with different MR acqs here: https://github.com/mzaiss/MRTwin_pulseq I'm not affiliated with this group and haven't tried it yet, but it seems very fun!
@sremedios perhaps not as satisfying as processing your own personal data, but still quite interesting!
@hayesall Last thing I would have expected was for github to have a day where they honored Trump... weird :)
@trinsec I will accept that :)
@kristinmbranson Amazing to have you here. I can see youll fit right in and make an amazing addition to the group.
Hello all! #introduction
I'm a Group Leader at HHMI Janelia Research Campus working at the intersections of #ComputerVision, #MachineLearning, #DataScience, #Neuroscience, #Ethology, #HCI, #SoftwareEngineering. I work on using computer vision, machine learning, and technology in general to help us gain insight into biology. My most cited work involves tracking and behavior analysis of flies and mice. I love algorithms and trying to understand how and when they work and what they're good at. But also I'm an engineer and want to solve problems however I can, regardless of elegance!
I like sunshine, being outside, #climbing, and #crosswords. I dream of someday leaving it all behind and moving to Bishop or Yosemite or the Rockies or something.

@wood means they havent approve dyou as a follower yet.
@trinsec lol yes because I was getting so bored of that :)
@trinsec Yup! Cant wait for our first dive together!
@sremedios I wish i had access to an MRI just for fun, so many cool things I could potentially do with one... I do have a lab with three different GCMS in it though that i could use for experiments, so at least I got that :)
@sremedios Wasnt quick thats for sure. But nothing too excessive. Few minutes IIRC maybe 15 minutes if i had to guess, it was a while ago.
Hi all! 👋 I'm a PhD student at Johns Hopkins working on medical image processing, specifically super-resolution of MRI.
Super-res is an inverse problem and therefore we have to "make up" information. This is particularly dangerous in medical scenarios, so I'm working on understanding when (if ever!) machine learning-based super-res can safely be applied to MRI with signal processing foundations.
Looking forward to connecting with everyone!
@sremedios Great to have you on the fediverse.
