Elen, October 14, 2011,, K.U. Leuven e Quality e Committee was of the unanimous opinion that the work of the group of prof. dr. ter Haar Romeny is of excellent quality. e examples presented (analysis of cardiac imaging and diffusion tensor image analysis based on HARDI data) as well as the on line demonstration were very convincing. Focus of the work is the development of generic algorithmic tools, for which it is very well known and which benefits from the link to the TU/e Mathematics and Computer Science Department. Strength of the group is that despite its focus on mathematical tools it has established a strong application branch ( algorithm design need real-world problems ). The analysis of cardiac imaging has either been performed by Hans van Assen, or has been set up and supervised by him. The on line demonstration of the cardiac image analysis methods and results was also given by him.
