SUMMARY:LCCC Seminar with Joel Saltz\, MD (Stony Brook University)
DESCRIPTION:The UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center\, in collaboration with the UNC Computational Medicine Program\n \n——— \n\nAbout the Speaker:   Dr. Joel Saltz is a Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Stony Brook University and a pioneer in computational pathology and AI. A Fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics\, he has founded three Biomedical Informatics departments. He holds an MD and a PhD in Computer Science\, completed his residency at Johns Hopkins\, and is board-certified in Clinical Pathology.\n\nAbstract: Routine Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained slides harbor a wealth of diagnostic and prognostic information that extends far beyond what conventional visual inspection can extract. This talk traces the evolution of computational pathology\, from foundational digital infrastructure like the Virtual Microscope to advanced deep learning methodologies. I will discuss our recent pathology AI research\, including latent conditional diffusion models for predicting immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining directly from H&E\, the generation of privacy-preserving synthetic tissues\, explainable pathology AI\, and techniques for extracting pathology synoptic elements using biologically interpretable models. I will also describe our collaborative work with UNC in breast cancer\, focusing on the predictive value of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and the use of quantitative tissue morphology to accurately forecast clinical outcomes.

SUMMARY:Research in Progress | Weitong Zhang
DESCRIPTION:In-person | Mary Ellen Jones 3116 \nVirtual |  ZOOM LINK  (passcode RESEARCH) \nTITLE: On exact energy guided diffusion model and diffusion-based offline reinforcement learning \nAbstract: Guided generative models are pivotal in advancing the applications of generative modeling. In this talk\, I will explore energy guidance in diffusion and flow matching models–a generalized formulation that extends beyond conventional diffusion models. By leveraging energy guidance\, generative models are encouraged to produce samples with higher energy from the target data distribution. I will introduce energy-weighted diffusion model and flow matching model\, with efficient implementation and offering new theoretical insights. In the second half of the presentation\, I will discuss the extension of this approach to offline reinforcement learning through Q-weighted iterative policy optimization\, which shows notable performance improvements across various offline RL tasks. \n\nShort Bio: Weitong Zhang joined the School of Data Science and Society at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as an assistant professor after completing his Ph.D. degree in computer science at the University of California\, Los Angeles. His research focuses on developing robust and efficient reinforcement learning algorithms\, emphasizing generative models and their applications in scientific discovery. \n
