Which is better for graduate students to choose medical devices or medical image processing

Personally, I think the employment of image processing is still good. First of all, you can think of images as two-dimensional, three-dimensional or higher-dimensional signals, in this sense, image processing is the best employment situation in the whole signal processing, because you not only need to master the basic knowledge of (one-dimensional) signal processing, but also to master the image processing (two-dimensional or high-dimensional signal processing) knowledge. Secondly, image processing is the basis of computer vision and video processing, mastered the basic knowledge of image processing, employment can be developed in these directions. Most of the current pattern recognition is also image pattern recognition. In practical applications, much of the information collected is image information, such as fingerprints, barcodes, faces, irises, vehicles and so on. Speaking of applications, we must not forget the medical image of this piece, if you have a background in medical image processing, to some medical equipment companies or medical software companies is also a good choice. Image processing requirements for programming is relatively high, if the programming is very good, of course, employment is also more of a choice of direction, not necessarily limited to the direction of the image. The following is some company information I know, not all, just what I know or what I am interested in, the reality is much more than that. Search direction Content-based image or video search is a hot topic for many search companies. To enter this field, you must have strong programming skills, good image processing and pattern recognition background. Requirements for high treatment is naturally good, the current representative companies in this area are Microsoft, google, yahoo and baidu, each famous. Medical imaging direction in the direction of medical equipment is mainly a few big companies in the competition, the head is not small, including Simens, GE, Philips and Kodak, mainly produces CT and MRI and other medical equipment. As the main function of medical equipment is imaging, necessarily involves the processing of images, image processing is very likely to enter these companies. They have R & D centers in China, simens in Shanghai and Shenzhen, GE and Kodak are in Shanghai, Philips in Shenyang. As the medical market is a not fully developed market, and the price of a set of medical equipment is very expensive, so the treatment in these places are okay, the prospects are also good. There are also some of these domestic enterprises such as Shenzhen Anke and Myriad computer vision and pattern recognition direction I did not go to research what companies are doing, but certainly a lot, such as fingerprint identification, face recognition, iris recognition. There is a great direction is the license plate recognition, this I do know that there is a company Goldwin intelligent transportation seems to do a very good look. At present, video surveillance is a hot issue, do tracking and identification can find a place in this direction. Shanghai Farsight is located in Shanghai Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park, in the vision and recognition to do a good job. I also know of two companies in Beijing: Daheng and Lingyun, both of which take image as the main body of R&D. The video direction generally focuses on universities or research institutes. The general direction of video universities or research institutes focus on the development and modification of standards and technological innovation, while the company focuses on the hardware implementation of encoding and decoding. Generally, these companies require that they are familiar with or proficient in MPEG, H.264 or AVS, and if you choose this direction, as long as you do a good job, you basically won't worry about your job. Because this is not the direction of my interest, so this company's information I did not collect, but usually in the various bbs or a variety of job sites often see. I know of two companies: Nokia and pixelworks other in fact, in general, as long as it involves imaging or image basically want to image processing aspects of the people. Let's say an imaging device, in the output image before the need for the original image enhancement or denoising process, the need to store the image compression, imaging needs to automatically analyze the content of the image, all of these contents are the scope of image processing. The following is a list of some of the image-related or recruitment clearly stated that the need for image processing professionals in the company: Shanghai Howell Integrated Circuits Limited ([url].cn[/url]) Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) Motorola Shanghai Research Institute VIA Panasonic Sony Tsinghua Tongfang Samsung all the image (still or moving image) related companies are a choice. For example, digital cameras, microscope imaging, ultrasound imaging, industrial robot control, monitors, television, remote sensing, and so on, can be the direction of job search. Requirements: 1. Foreign language. If you enter a foreign company, the importance of foreign language is self-evident. Generally the first round of interviews with foreign companies are oral interviews in English. 2, programming. This is especially important to C + +, a lot of companies are tested on the written test c + + knowledge. 3, professional level. If you want to find a professional-related work, the research experience and published papers during graduate school is more important.4, the breadth of knowledge. I think during graduate school, in addition to doing their own research direction, broaden the knowledge base also has a great help, of course, this knowledge base refers to image processing, computer vision and pattern recognition, the wider the knowledge base, the more choices for employment. Image processing direction of the graduates of the employment surface is very broad, and treatment in the freshmen should be the upper middle class. In fact, it is still a saying that ability determines everything. As long as the three years of graduate school is not in vain, there is no worry about not finding a good job. I wish all the friends who are in graduate school or about to go to graduate school will have a satisfactory job in the future
