Ngan Le, member of the UA Power Group and assistant professor of computer science and computer engineering, studies AI and computer vision. Le and her collaborators developed a highly accurate AI framework for reading chest x-rays called “ItpCtrl-AI”, which stands for interpretable and controllable artificial intelligence. The researchers taught the AI software to look at chest X-rays like a radiologist by examining the gaze of radiologists, both where they look and how long they looked at that area.
