Dr. Basar Koc, ’12, and Dr. Ziya Arnavut are co-authors of a paper presented recently at an Edinburgh, Scotland, conference.
The paper, “Human-Reader Compression Guidelines Do Not Guarantee AI Robustness: A NODE21 JPEG2000 Study” was presented by Dr. Koc at the 7th International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Aided Diagnosis (MICAD 2026) in Edinburgh in October.
Koc was a co-author of the study and is currently a tenured Associate Professor of Computer Science at Stetson University. Dr. Arnavut noted the presentation represented another milestone in a long-standing research collaboration that began during Koc's student years at SUNY Fredonia. Arnavut added that Koc’s academic journey, from undergraduate researcher to accomplished scholar and academic leader, exemplifies the transformative impact of student-faculty research partnerships and the lasting value of investing in undergraduate research opportunities.
