Uni Internship Jan to July 2027 - Computer Vision Model Development for Medical Data Analysis

Join Synapxe as an intern and see how you can contribute in powering a healthier Singapore. Internship@Synapxe is where curiosity meets impact! You would be able to gain practical experience, hone your skills, and be part of meaningful work that improves health through technology!

As an intern you will join the Data Science & AI team to explore and develop advanced computer vision solutions for healthcare applications. This internship offers the opportunity to work with medical images and videos, leveraging state-of-the-art deep learning and computer vision techniques to support clinical insights and decision-making. Interns will collaborate with experienced data scientists and AI engineers to design, evaluate, and optimise computer vision models for real-world healthcare use cases.

The Selected Intern(s) Will Assist In Following Phase 1 – Review, Implement and Evaluate

• Perform a focused literature review of representative computer vision methods for segmentation, object detection and image classification applicable to medical datasets
• Implement selected computer vision models on medical image and video datasets and conduct baseline experiments
• Evaluate model performance using task-appropriate metrics (e.g. Dice/IoU, mAP, AUC)
• Analyse model results and identify key failure modes and areas for improvement

Phase 2 – Improve Through Adaptive Pipelines and Model Tuning

• Design adaptive data preparation pipelines, including task-specific augmentation, normalisation and dataset splitting strategies
• Experiment with different augmentation schedules and preprocessing approaches
• Apply transfer learning techniques and model tuning strategies to improve baseline performance
• Evaluate different fine-tuning approaches, hyperparameters and model variants
• Integrate interpretability and uncertainty estimation techniques into model workflows
• Assess and compare performance improvements against baseline models

About You

• Undergraduate currently in Year 2 or Year 3, pursuing a degree in Business Analytics, Business Artificial Intelligence Systems, Information Systems, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, or a related discipline
