The modularised platform for medical image data allows the fast and simple implementation of approaches from research by means of seamless integration of modules and intelligent control of the data flow and thus accelerates the clinical evaluation of innovative approaches (“rapid prototyping”). PD Dr. Andreas Hötker, Universität Zürich, Institut für… Read More »Modularised platform for medical image data (MMIP)
We propose a software that uses latest computer vision models to produce useful annotations such as patient movement and interventions by staff from patient bedside video data acquired by the ICU Cockpit IT platform. This tool will improve patient health outcomes and is the “last mile” in the development of… Read More »AUTODIDACT: Automated Video Data Annotation to Empower the ICU Cockpit Platform for Clinical Decision Support
This project is the “spin-off” of the FEAHD project examining the ethical, legal and social implications of the humanitarian use of drones, based on a scoping literature review, two field studies in Nepal and Malawi, and the Framework for the Ethics Assessment of Humanitarian Drones (FEAHD). The objectives of this… Read More »The Ethics-Assessment-Tool for the Humanitarian Use of Drones (E-HUD)
Implementation of the data & visualization hub LEAD – LEarning from the pAst: Digitized past pandemics in Switzerland History offers scenarios from past pandemics. In Switzerland, these past experiences have been too little researched, they are not present. We currently digitize large amounts of historical data. Now, we aim to… Read More »LEAD – LEarning from the pAst
The project is based on a 4-year, SNF research project that enables videos, texts as well as other elements into an intuitively navigable and long-term stable publication form. The “last mile” of this project realizes long-term archiving and low-threshold accessibility. Dr. Gunter Lösel, ZHdK Darstellende Künste und Film Charlotte Axelsson, ZHdK… Read More »Research Video in Modcast format
Development of a serious game to support writing difficulties Writing difficulties are one of the most common learning disorders among school children and affect participation in school. Writing difficulties can lead to emotional frustration and lowered self-esteem, as well as prevent children from showing what they know in school. These… Read More »Playfully train writing motor skills
Assessing and Digitizing Risk Exposure Resulting from Biodiversity Loss We propose a fully digital, science-based solution that can provide forward-looking guidance for companies regarding the financial risks associated with biodiversity loss. We intend to communicate understandable risk metrics using User Interface to a biodiversity-committed network of stakeholders. Dr. Tomasz Orpiszewski,… Read More »Biodiversity Value At Risk
Fostering Productive Work in Hybrid Workplaces through an Ambient Display In today’s collaborative work environments, knowledge workers experience frequent interruptions from their co-workers, either in-person at the office or through online channels, such as email, chat and video calls. In our previous work, we’ve studied interruptions and their impact on… Read More »FlowLight
About 30% of COVID-19 patients do not recover and experience long-term symptoms (long COVID). Based on serum immunoglobulin measurements we have developed a predictive score to calculate the individual risk to develop long COVID. We propose the implementation of this score in the area of Zurich and beyond using an… Read More »Computational prediction of long COVID in the Canton of Zurich
Enhancing Brain Angiograms for Personalized Stroke Management The architecture of the supplying brain blood vessels impacts the occurrence and severity of stroke. DeepBVP will extract the Circle of Willis from MRA, automatically annotate vessel segments and characterize them morphologically and topologically. We employ deep learning methods with a solid knowledge… Read More »Deep Brain Vessel Profiler
