Accurate delineation of coronary arteries from X-ray angiography supports early identification of narrowing or blockages, but is complicated by low contrast and thin, branching vessel structures. This study compares three U-Net-based segmentation architectures — U-Net, U-Net++ and U-Net 3+ — trained on 1,000 images from the ARCADE dataset and evaluated on a held-out set of 300 images. All three architectures achieved comparable performance (Dice scores of 0.748-0.752), with U-Net 3+ performing best overall, U-Net++ showing higher sensitivity to smaller vessels, and U-Net showing higher precision, demonstrating the potential of U-Net-based models for coronary artery segmentation. This work was presented at the 5th Serbian International Conference on Applied Artificial Intelligence (SICAAI 2026), Kragujevac, Serbia, and was carried out within the STRATIFYHF project.
The KeepA(n)I platform facilitates the auditing of computer vision systems that tag images, which aid visual communication on the Web and social media, from content moderation to the development of new apps and tools. In particular, KeepA(n)I enables a broad set of stakeholders t…
Autonomous driving relies on computationally intensive perception pipelines to continuously detect and track objects in the surrounding environment. While some objects are key to plan safe and effective maneuvers, others may not be relevant and have no impact on the autonomous ve…
У статті досліджуються епістемологічні та алгоритмічні обмеження сучасних моделей комп'ютерного зору (зокрема архітектури YOLOv8) щодо автоматизованого розпізнавання складних психоемоційних станів в умовах авіаційної інфраструктури. На основі трансдисциплінарної методології…
Voice characteristics are an emerging, non-invasive biomarker for heart failure. This study develops a machine learning pipeline to differentiate patients with suspected heart failure from those with a confirmed diagnosis using vocal features alone, drawing on 240 patients (50 su…
Echocardiographic assessment of End-Diastolic Volume (EDV) is central to identifying dilated cardiomyopathy, a major driver of heart failure. This paper presents a low-latency, edge-computing solution that deploys an 8-bit quantized, 50%-pruned CNN directly onto a Xilinx Artix-7…
