Attention Gated Networks: Learning to Leverage Salient Regions in Medical Images
We propose a novel attention gate (AG) model for medical image analysis that
automatically learns to focus on target structures of varying shapes and sizes.
Models trained with AGs implicitly learn to suppress irrelevant regions in an
input image while highlighting salient features useful for a specific task.
This enables us to eliminate the necessity of using explicit external
tissue/organ localisation modules when using convolutional neural networks
(CNNs). AGs can be easily integrated into standard CNN models such as VGG or
U-Net architectures with minimal computational overhead while increasing the
model sensitivity and prediction accuracy. The proposed AG models are evaluated
on a variety of tasks, including medical image classification and segmentation.
For classification, we demonstrate the use case of AGs in scan plane detection
for fetal ultrasound screening. We show that the proposed attention mechanism
can provide efficient object localisation while improving the overall
prediction performance by reducing false positives. For segmentation, the
proposed architecture is evaluated on two large 3D CT abdominal datasets with
manual annotations for multiple organs. Experimental results show that AG
models consistently improve the prediction performance of the base
architectures across different datasets and training sizes while preserving
computational efficiency. Moreover, AGs guide the model activations to be
focused around salient regions, which provides better insights into how model
predictions are made. The source code for the proposed AG models is publicly
available.Comment: Accepted for Medical Image Analysis (Special Issue on Medical Imaging

Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) in deep learning-based medical image analysis
With an increase in deep learning-based methods, the call for explainability
of such methods grows, especially in high-stakes decision making areas such as
medical image analysis. This survey presents an overview of eXplainable
Artificial Intelligence (XAI) used in deep learning-based medical image
analysis. A framework of XAI criteria is introduced to classify deep
learning-based medical image analysis methods. Papers on XAI techniques in
medical image analysis are then surveyed and categorized according to the
framework and according to anatomical location. The paper concludes with an
outlook of future opportunities for XAI in medical image analysis.Comment: Submitted for publication. Comments welcome by email to first autho
Image Captioning menurut Scientific Revolution Kuhn dan Popper
Image captioning is one area in artificial intelligence that elaborates between computer vision and natural language processing. The focus on this process is an architecture neural network that includes many layers to solve the identification object on the image and give the caption. This architecture has a task to display the caption from object detection on one image. This paper explains about the connection between scientific revolution and image captioning. We have conducted the methodology by Kuhn's scientific revolution and relate to Popper's philosophy of science. The result of this paper is that an image captioning is truly science because many improvements from many researchers to find an effective method on the deep learning process. On the philosophy of science, if the phenomena can be falsified, then an image captioning is the science
