Résumé

This research project took the form of an internship at the Institute For Systems and Robotics of the Portuguese university Instituto Superior Técnico. Under the supervision of professor Catarina Barata, I joined the VisLab team, specialized in Computer Vision (the domain of Computer Science of image processing). The subject of my research was Breast Cancer diagnosis, involving Artificial Intelligence (AI), based on Wole Slide Images (WSI) of biological tissues. In addition, I had the chance to explore more broadly the field of medical computing, by attending many conferences of the research community that contributed to fuel my work and to place it in the context of this fast evolving environment.
