CIR | Medical Anomaly Detection (MANO) Group

The Medical Anomaly Detection (MANO) group develops cutting-edge AI methods to analyze and understand medical data, operating under the motto "AI for Biomarker Discovery and Beyond". Our research spans a wide array of machine learning techniques, including anomaly detection, segmentation, unsupervised learning, domain generalization, and patient outcome prediction, with a special emphasis on detecting anomalies in medical imaging.

Running Projects

AICARD

AICARD starts in May 2025 and aims to transform cardiac research by exploring routine clinical data through advanced machine learning and visualization techniques. We will develop tools to enable more effective research, i.e. enabling medical professionals to explore and discover patterns in disease progression and to assess treatment response.

AICARD

AI-POD

The AI-POD project has started in May 2023 and is developing AI tools for the prediction of risk of cardiovascular diseases in obese persons. It links imaging with continual activity tracking to improve risk scores. 

AI-POD

EUCAIM

EUCAIM (Start 2023) develops a federated European infrastructure for cancer imaging data funded under the DIGITAL programme. The project starts with 21 clinical sites from 12 countries and aims to have at least 30 distributed data providers from 15 countries by the end of the project.
