This study presents a scalable noise injection framework to evaluate how radiographic noise affects chest X-ray analysis. We systematically inject various types and levels of noise into chest X-ray images to measure the impact on semantic segmentation of anatomical structures and disease classification accuracy. Our framework enables researchers to assess model robustness and develop more noise-resilient medical imaging algorithms. [arXiv link TBA]

Begin Your Journey

The application takes 10 minutes and is reviewed on a rolling basis. We look for strong technical signal—projects, coursework, or competition results—and a genuine curiosity to do real research.

If admitted, you will join a structured pipeline with direct mentorship to take your work from ideation to top conference submission at venues like NeurIPS, ACL, and EMNLP.
