"We teach and develop techniques that allow us to make better sense of signals, images, and digital data in general."
Gustavo Kunde Rohde, Professor
Dr. Rohde develops computational predictive models using machine learning and signal and image processing with applications in pathology, radiology, systems biology, and mobile sensing. He earned B.S. degrees in physics and mathematics in 1999, and the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2001 from Vanderbilt University. He received a doctorate in applied mathematics and scientific computation in 2005 from the University of Maryland. He is Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia.
Research in the Imaging and Data Science Lab aims to contribute ideas in support of biomedical imaging, mobile, and remote sensing applications. We specialize on objective and quantitative modeling of data from imaging and other types of sensors by incorporating knowledge from multiple disciplines including applied mathematics, signal processing, machine learning and statistics.

A Leading Expert in the Development of diagnostic AI Applications for Tissue Pathology
"How do you establish the science of characterising biological heterogeneity, within a tissue? That step is, in my view, the best way for us to build sufficient knowledge upon which to derive algorithms which are robust enough and competent enough to address the right questions."

The research team investigated whether machine learning applied to MRI images of knee cartilage can point to early signs of osteoarthritis and predict who will develop the disease. The team used a customized machine learning technique invented in Rohde’s lab called transport-based morphometry, an approach that quantifies information about the shape and texture of biological forms seamlessly from image data.
