EPFL-LTS5 former PhD student Dr Subrahmanyam Gorthi has recently joined as an Assistant Professor in the Electrical Engineering Department of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) – Tirupati, India. Congratulations Gorthi !
Dr. Subrahmanyam Gorthi has recently joined as an Assistant Professor in the Electrical Engineering Department of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) – Tirupati, India. Dr. Gorthi has mainly worked in the area of medical image analysis. More specifically, his areas of expertise include atlas-based image segmentation, multi-atlas fusion, model-based image segmentation, and graph-cuts. He has published so far 7 full-length peer-reviewed Journal papers, 15 Conference papers and a Book chapter.
Before Joining in IIT-Tirupati, Dr. Gorthi worked as a Chief Engineer in the Health and Medical Equipment (HME) division of Samsung R&D Institute in Bangalore (SRI-B), India, for more than a year. During this period, Dr. Gorthi has contributed to developing post-processing clinical tools for the detection and prognosis of Dementia, through automated segmentation and analysis of structures in MR brain images.
Dr. Gorthi worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Harvard Medical School, and Boston Children's Hospital for one and half year; Dr. Gorthi worked in the Computational Radiology Laboratory (CRL) of Prof. Simon Warfield. During this period, Dr. Gorthi developed novel multi-atlas fusion methods that could considerably improve the accuracy of automated segmentations in various clinical applications.
Dr. Gorthi did his PhD in Medical Image Analysis at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Switzerland. His PhD Supervisor is Prof. Jean-Philippe Thiran. During his PhD, Dr. Gorthi has mainly proposed novel Markov Random Fields (MRF) based atlas fusion methods, graph-cuts based segmentation methods, and image registration methods.
Dr. Gorthi did his Masters (MSc(Engg.)) in Computational Science, at Supercomputer Education and Research Centre (SERC), Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, India. His Masters Supervisors are Dr. Atanu Mohanty and Prof. Anindya Chatterjee. During his Masters, he proposed computational models for analysing the behaviour of electrostatic MEMS devices beyond the well-known pull-in phenomena. Dr. Gorthi did his Bachelors (BTech.) in Electrical and Electronics, at Nagarjuna University, India.
