- thenaturalist 9y agoHey, sounds interesting. Would you share the name of your company/ startup?
- klancaster 9y agoAt this point, it is university research. The work has been published, and we are in clinical trials in prep for commercialization.
- lj3 9y agoIs this just for melanoma, or has it expanded into pap smear and bronch territory? My mother's a cytotech and every couple of years somebody claims they're going to replace her with a shell script. Hasn't happened yet, though.
- klancaster 9y agoWe are expanding it to a number of skin and ocular diseases.
- jboogie77 9y agoDo you mind sharing a link to the research?
- zfran 9y agodo you worry about the weights of your net being stolen off the app through reverse engineering?
- klancaster 9y agoIt is a bit of concern, but we are not out in the wild yet so we have time to look at ways to protect the IP.
- kuboris 9y agoThats super cool. We built a simmilar simple app on a Hackathon. We are getting 90% Accuracy nowadays. We opensourced it at https://github.com/kuboris/smartoscope https://github.com/kuboris/smartoscope We should add an App for download as soon as our Android developer fixes some minor bugs. The plan is to make it open to use any model so people can train and provide their own. Any advice ? :)
