Self-supervised contrastive learning unveils cortical folding pattern linked to prematurity [PDF]

The brain folds mainly during the last trimester of pregnancy, and the process might be durably disturbed by preterm birth. Yet little is known about preterm-specific patterns. In this work, we train a self-supervised model (SimCLR) on the UKBioBank cohort (21070 adults)
