Big data meets image processing: friends or foes? In this presentation, we examine how the proper choice of big data tools and technologies helps deliver scalable imaging solutions that allow extraction of a variety of artifacts from medical images. We also explore the differences between traditional algorithms such as Markov’s fields and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The insights can be applied to image processing beyond medical imaging.
