Serious question: is there a way to get access to medical imagery as a non-student? I would love to do some machine learning with it myself, as I see lot’s of potential in image analysis in general. 5 years ago I created a model that was able to spot certain types of ships based only on satellite imagery, which were not easily detectable by eye and ignoring the fact that one human cannot scan 15k images in one hour. Similar use case with medical imagery - seeing the things that are not yet detectable by human eyes.

what is your intended use case? are you trying to help government agencies perfect spying? sounds very cringe ngl
My intended use case is to find possibilities how ML can support people with certain tasks. Science is not political, for what my technology is abused, I cannot control. This is no reason to stop science entirely, there will always be someone abusing something for their own gain.
But thanks for assuming without asking first what the context was.

Marxism-Leninism? anakin-padme-2
Oh, Machine Learning. sicko-wistful
Science is not political
in an ideal world maybe, but that is not our world. In reality science is always always political. It is unavoidable.
Typical hexbear reply lol
Unfortunately, you are right, though.

weaselly bullshit. how exactly do you intend for people to use technology that identifies ships via satellite? what is your goal? because the only use cases I can see for this are negative
This is no reason to stop science entirely
if the only thing your tech can be used for is bad then you’re bad for innovating that tech
Ever thought about identifying ships full of refugees and send help, before their ships break apart and 50 people drown?
Of course you have not. Your hatered makes you blind. Close minds never were able to see why science is important. Now enjoy spreading hate somewhere else.

how did I know that they’d use the jew gassing chamber to gas jews, or use the torment nexus to create a nexus of torment? I was only doing the science
you’re a fucking moron, jesus fucking christ
imagine being a scientist, a person whose entire career and body of work relies on very specific premises of cause and effect, only to go on and make some shit without thinking it’s even possibly your responsibility to consider the subsequent effect of what you make
brainless
“Removed by mod” suck my nuts you fascist fucks lol
Yeah there is. A bloke I know did exactly that with brain scans for his masters.
Would you mind asking your friend, so you can provide the source?
adni.loni.usc.edu here ya go
Lovely, thank you very much, kind stranger!

Yeah there are some openly available datasets on competition sites like Kaggle, and some medical data is available through public institutions like like NIH.

I knew about kaggle, but not about NIH. Thanks for the hint!
