研究室紹介

Professor Ga-Yeong Lee's research lab specializes in the intersection of deep learning and medical image analysis, with a focus on enhancing saliency detection through the integration of hand-crafted low-level and deep neural network-derived high-level features. The lab also investigates traditional herbal medicines as potential adjuvants in oncology and hepatology, particularly for overcoming multidrug resistance in colorectal cancer and treating refractory edema in cirrhotic patients. Additionally, the lab explores data-efficient deep learning techniques for artistic image translation, such as sketch-to-line conversion, using unpaired data. These diverse research directions reflect a strong commitment to improving clinical diagnostics and therapeutic outcomes through intelligent image processing and integrative medicine.

Deep Saliency with Encoded Low Level Distance Map and High Level Features
Ga‐Young Lee, Yu‐Wing Tai, Junmo Kim

Recent advances in saliency detection have utilized deep learning to obtain high level features to detect salient regions in a scene. These advances have demonstrated superior results over previous works that utilize hand-crafted low level features for saliency detection. In this paper, we demonstrate that hand-crafted features can provide complementary information to enhance performance of saliency detection that utilizes only high level features. Our method utilizes both high level and low lev

Overcoming P‐Glycoprotein‐Mediated Multidrug Resistance in Colorectal Cancer: Potential Reversal Agents among Herbal Medicines
Ga‐Young Lee, Jin‐Yong Joung, Jung-Hyo Cho, Chang‐Gue Son, Namhun Lee
Evidence-based Complementary and Alternative MedicineOA

Objectives . Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the major reason for the failure of chemotherapy in colorectal cancer (CRC), and the primary determinant of MDR in CRC patients is active drug efflux owing to overexpression of P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) in cancer tissues. Despite research efforts to overcome P‐gp‐mediated drug efflux, the high toxicity of P‐gp inhibitors has been a major obstacle for the clinical use of these agents. The aim of this study was to review the literature for potential P‐gp reve

ELD-Net: An Efficient Deep Learning Architecture for Accurate Saliency Detection
Ga‐Young Lee, Yu‐Wing Tai, Junmo Kim
SJR Q1IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence

Recent advances in saliency detection have utilized deep learning to obtain high-level features to detect salient regions in scenes. These advances have yielded results superior to those reported in past work, which involved the use of hand-crafted low-level features for saliency detection. In this paper, we propose ELD-Net, a unified deep learning framework for accurate and efficient saliency detection. We show that hand-crafted features can provide complementary information to enhance saliency

RATIONALE: Refractory edema is characterized by persistent swelling which does not react to diuretic use and sodium restriction. Traditional herbal medicine, Gwack Rhyung Tang and Chunggan extract effectively treated refractory lower limb edema caused by cirrhosis and improved liver function. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 64-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hepatic encephalopathy, and cellulitis presented lower limb edema which did not react to diuretics for more th

Unpaired Sketch-to-Line Translation via Synthesis of Sketches
Ga‐Young Lee, Dohyun Kim, Youngjoon Yoo, Dongyoon Han, Jung-Woo Ha, Jaehyuk Chang

Converting hand-drawn sketches into clean line drawings is a crucial step for diverse artistic works such as comics and product designs. Recent data-driven methods using deep learning have shown their great abilities to automatically simplify sketches on raster images. Since it is difficult to collect or generate paired sketch and line images, lack of training data is a main obstacle to use these models. In this paper, we propose a training scheme that requires only unpaired sketch and line imag

Fractional curative killing of pyronaridine or artesunate combinations with tafenoquine, 4-aminoquinolines, or azithromycin in a murine malaria-luciferase model

SJR Q1Antimicrobial Agents and ChemotherapyOA

ABSTRACT Malaria drug interactions in cytostatic or inhibitory in vitro assays or suppression models in vivo can be different than curative killing interactions. In the pharmacodynamic high parasitemia Plasmodium berghei ANKA-luciferase mouse blood-stage model, we investigated curative interaction analysis of multiple, daily dosed, short half-life, artesunate or single-dose, long half-life, pyronaridine against three single-dose, long half-life, quinolines—chloroquine, amodiaquine, and tafenoqui

Création d'une pratique théorique, d'une théorie pratique à partir des quatre éléments : les quatre éléments comme expérience des matières corporelles et comme idées qui stimulent les sensations et l'imagination pour la danse
Ga‐Young Lee

This project of research - creation is born from the desire to make intelligeble the logic of the birth of the movement such as the dancer feels it. The birth of the dance movement works with the birth of ideas. How do the physical materials give birth to ideas? How can the ideas produce physical materials? To answer these questions, the experiences of the choreographer dancer are analyzed during the process of a creation on the four elements. The work on the element « Earth » clarifies the rela
