- Abstract summary: We implement a surface-based CycleGAN to translate sphericalised neonatal cortical surface features between different stages of maturity.
Results show our method is able to reliably predict changes in individual patterns of cortical organisation at later stages of gestation.
Simulated differences in cortical maturation are consistent with observations in the literature.

- Abstract: The neonatal cortical surface is known to be affected by preterm birth, and
the subsequent changes to cortical organisation have been associated with
poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes. Deep Generative models have the potential
to lead to clinically interpretable models of disease, but developing these on
the cortical surface is challenging since established techniques for learning
convolutional filters are inappropriate on non-flat topologies. To close this
gap, we implement a surface-based CycleGAN using mixture model CNNs (MoNet) to
translate sphericalised neonatal cortical surface features (curvature and
T1w/T2w cortical myelin) between different stages of cortical maturity. Results
show our method is able to reliably predict changes in individual patterns of
cortical organisation at later stages of gestation, validated by comparison to
longitudinal data; and translate appearance between preterm and term gestation
(> 37 weeks gestation), validated through comparison with a trained
term/preterm classifier. Simulated differences in cortical maturation are
consistent with observations in the literature.

Cortical surface analysis has gained increased prominence, given its potential implications for neurological and developmental disorders.
Traditional vision diffusion models, while effective in generating natural images, present limitations in capturing intricate development patterns in neuroimaging due to limited datasets.

Variational Autoencoders [72.15087604017441]
Category-selectivity describes the observation that certain spatially localized areas of the cerebral cortex tend to respond robustly and selectively to stimuli from specific limited categories.
We leverage the newly introduced Topographic Variational Autoencoder to model of the emergence of such localized category-selectivity in an unsupervised manner.
We show preliminary results suggesting that our model yields a nested spatial hierarchy of increasingly abstract categories, analogous to observations from the human ventral temporal cortex.

Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder primarily affecting premature infants with lower weights.
It causes proliferation of vessels in the retina and could result in vision loss and, eventually, retinal detachment, leading to blindness.
In recent years, there has been a significant effort to automate the diagnosis using deep learning.
This paper builds upon the success of previous models and develops a novel architecture, which combines object segmentation and convolutional neural networks (CNN)
Our proposed system first trains an object segmentation model to identify the demarcation line at a pixel level and adds the resulting mask as an additional "color" channel in
