Content-Based Image Retrieval
The talk ‘E-health in general and the projects of the HES-SO Valais’ was given by Henning Müller at the E-Santé: Évolution ou Révolution? conference that took place at the HES-SO in Lausanne.
We presented our projects to over 80 persons involved with the eHealth in the Swiss French part. There will be another event this 29-nov-2012, this time here in Sierre.
The Visceral kick-off meeting will take place in Vienna on the 19th to 20th of November.
