Image to Image Translation for Domain Adaptation
We propose a general framework for unsupervised domain adaptation, which
allows deep neural networks trained on a source domain to be tested on a
different target domain without requiring any training annotations in the
target domain. This is achieved by adding extra networks and losses that help
regularize the features extracted by the backbone encoder network. To this end
we propose the novel use of the recently proposed unpaired image-toimage
translation framework to constrain the features extracted by the encoder
network. Specifically, we require that the features extracted are able to
reconstruct the images in both domains. In addition we require that the
distribution of features extracted from images in the two domains are
indistinguishable. Many recent works can be seen as specific cases of our
general framework. We apply our method for domain adaptation between MNIST,
USPS, and SVHN datasets, and Amazon, Webcam and DSLR Office datasets in
classification tasks, and also between GTA5 and Cityscapes datasets for a
segmentation task. We demonstrate state of the art performance on each of these
datasets
Learning to Segment Breast Biopsy Whole Slide Images
We trained and applied an encoder-decoder model to semantically segment
breast biopsy images into biologically meaningful tissue labels. Since
conventional encoder-decoder networks cannot be applied directly on large
biopsy images and the different sized structures in biopsies present novel
challenges, we propose four modifications: (1) an input-aware encoding block to
compensate for information loss, (2) a new dense connection pattern between
encoder and decoder, (3) dense and sparse decoders to combine multi-level
features, (4) a multi-resolution network that fuses the results of
encoder-decoders run on different resolutions. Our model outperforms a
feature-based approach and conventional encoder-decoders from the literature.
We use semantic segmentations produced with our model in an automated diagnosis
task and obtain higher accuracies than a baseline approach that employs an SVM
for feature-based segmentation, both using the same segmentation-based
diagnostic features.Comment: Added more WSI images in appendi
