Visian is a research project designed and developed at the Digital Health and Machine Learning Chair of the Hasso-Plattner-Institut Potsdam in Germany. It originated in a 2020 Bachelors Project called "Classifai" with the original goal to create a tool to enable researchers to annotate and analyse MRI scans faster than ever before by implementing a machine learning approach called Active Learning.
Picked up in late 2020 and renamed, redesigned and very much improved, Visian aims to do just that and more. Together with teams from the Charite in Berlin, the Icahn School of Medicine at the Mount Sinai hospital in NYC, and the Focus Group AI4Health of the WHO and the ITU, Visian is aiming to enhance the work of researchers in various fields with new approaches, features and use of machine learning to enable better, faster and more qualitative research - to ultimately save lives and benefit humanity.
