Research Opportunity

Distributed Systems

Work description

• Design and implementation of artifact simulation models to serve the artifact correction model;
• Implementation and optimization of the artifact correction model in magnetic resonance images;
• Design and implementation of federated computing environments using NVIDIA Flare and Flower.
• Experimental validation of the prototype developed in HPC environments.

The tasks described in this work plan require the application and development of concepts and techniques from the field of Biomedical Engineering, typically taught in curricular units that make up the core of the branch in Medical Informatics study plan.

Academic Qualifications
