Welcome Drs. Evgin Goceri and Pelin Kus

The CIA Lab is proud to have added our two newest members, Dr. Evgin Goceri and Dr. Pelin Kus, earlier this year. 

Dr. Evgin Goceri received her B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from Ege University. She completed her M.Sc. thesis project on image processing at the Department of Industrial Science and Technology of a partner (Xios) of the Associatie Universiteit Hasselt (Hasselt University) in Belgium. She received her Ph.D. degree from the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering in Izmir Institute of Technology. Her main research interest is based on biomedical image processing. She is interested in computerized image analysis systems to help biologists, pathologists and radiologists in their assessment of medical images because of several advantages of computerized analysis such as accuracy, consistency and quantitativity. Dr. Goceri is an assistant professor at Akdeniz University and she has been working as a visiting researcher at the Ohio State University, Department of Biomedical Informatics since August 2015.


Dr. Pelin Kus is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the department of Biomedical Informatics at the Ohio State University. She received her BS and MS degrees in Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department of Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey, in 1994 and 1998 respectively. She got her PhD degree from Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department of Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey, in 2012. She gave lectures at Turkish Military Academy, Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department of Gazi University and Biomedical Engineering Department of Baskent University, Ankara, Turkey. Her main research area consists of computer vision and image processing.

CIALAB encouraging talented young minds with summer internships

CIALAB is pleased to introduce the three interns namely Tong Gan, Rosana Rodriguez Milanes and Michael Priddy working through summer’09. Rosana Rodriguez Milanes - I am a third year undergraduate student in Electronic Engineering from Universidad del Norte, Colombia. My experience as a volunteer foreign student in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory has been an edifying, gratifying and enriching. Being able to participate, to learn and to collaborate in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory during the past two weeks has allowed me to improve my analytical and interpretative skills in processing histopathological and MRI images. I have been able to learn about segmentation, region growing, splitting and merging algorithms development. I have also had the privilege of knowing and interacting with excellent engineers who have helped me improve my skills as a foreign student. I am grateful for the opportunity that the Ohio State University has given me to collaborate and to learn with

Recent publications

The CIA lab has recently had 4 articles published in PLOS One and the Journal of Urology. Automated Staging Of T1 Bladder Cancer Using Digital Pathologic H&E Images: A Deep Learning approach (Journal of Urology). The paper discusses the need for accurately gauging tumor cell intrusion into Lamina Propria in an effort to substage bladder cancer. It explains how transfer learning in conjunction with Convolutional Neural Networks can be used to accurately identify different bladder layers and then compute the distance between tumor nuclei and Lamina Propria. The article is available here:  https://www.jurology.com/article/S0022-5347(18)41148-2/pdf Identifying tumor in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms from Ki67 images using transfer learning (PLOS One). This paper examines a proposed methodology to automatically differentiate between NET and non-tumor regions based on images of Ki67 stained biopsies. It also uses transfer learning to exploit a rich set of features developed

Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras Present at OSUMC Research Day

On April 25th, Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras presented their research at the OSUMC Research Day.  Dr. Evgin Goceri presented “Automatic and Robust Segmentation of Liver and Its Vessels from MR Datasets for Pre-Evaluation of Liver Translation” which proposed a robust and fully automated method for segmenting the liver and its vessels from MR images. Dr. Goceri’s study presented a novel approach to reducing processing time by employing binary regularization of the level set function. The fully-automatic segmentation of liver and its vessels with the proposed method was more efficient than manual approach and the other methods in the literature in terms of processing time and accuracy. Dr. Pelin Kus presented “Segmentation and Quantification of Tissue Necrosis in Tuberculosis” which focuses on how the immune system of patients infected with M. tuberculosis responds by using many types of cells including macrophages that form granulomas within the pulmonary tissue. Segmentation a
