Edison Sun
Undergraduate researcher at Northwestern University pursuing a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, B.A. in Integrated Science, and minor in Computer Science. I specialize in deep learning, medical robotics, and fluids.
Currently developing deep learning workflows for thoracic aorta diameter measurements and providing a descriptive analysis of 73k+ medical scans. Previously built robotic optical coherence tomography systems for glaucoma imaging with feature-based SLAM montaging algorithms.

Deep learning AI for aortic diameter measurement and segmentation
CE-MRA pipeline across 73k+ exams: 3D vessel segmentation, centerline tracing, orthogonal diameter sampling, and automated QA with cohort-scale analytics.

Robotic OCT for glaucoma imaging with SLAM montaging
End-effector OCT with visual servoing and feature-based SLAM for wide-field retinal mosaics; real-time pose estimation, overlap-aware path planning, and drift correction.

EDW cohort statistical correlation analysis
Linkage of EDW clinical variables with imaging-derived phenotypes; Pearson/Spearman association testing, stratification by demographics/comorbidity, and multiple-testing control.
