Deep learning for unsupervised domain adaptation in medical imaging: Recent advancements and future perspectives
Deep learning has demonstrated remarkable performance across various tasks in
medical imaging. However, these approaches primarily focus on supervised
learning, assuming that the training and testing data are drawn from the same
distribution. Unfortunately, this assumption may not always hold true in
practice. To address these issues, unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA)
techniques have been developed to transfer knowledge from a labeled domain to a
related but unlabeled domain. In recent years, significant advancements have
been made in UDA, resulting in a wide range of methodologies, including feature
alignment, image translation, self-supervision, and disentangled representation
methods, among others. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive literature
review of recent deep UDA approaches in medical imaging from a technical
perspective. Specifically, we categorize current UDA research in medical
imaging into six groups and further divide them into finer subcategories based
on the different tasks they perform. We also discuss the respective datasets
used in the studies to assess the divergence between the different domains.
Finally, we discuss emerging areas and provide insights and discussions on
future research directions to conclude this survey.Comment: Under Revie
Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
Recognizing New Classes with Synthetic Data in the Loop : Application to Traffic Sign Recognition
On-board vision systems may need to increase the number of classes that can be recognized in a relatively short period. For instance, a traffic sign recognition system may suddenly be required to recognize new signs. Since collecting and annotating samples of such new classes may need more time than we wish, especially for uncommon signs, we propose a method to generate these samples by combining synthetic images and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) technology. In particular, the GAN is trained on synthetic and real-world samples from known classes to perform synthetic-to-real domain adaptation, but applied to synthetic samples of the new classes. Using the Tsinghua dataset with a synthetic counterpart, SYNTHIA-TS, we have run an extensive set of experiments. The results show that the proposed method is indeed effective, provided that we use a proper Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to perform the traffic sign recognition (classification) task as well as a proper GAN to transform the synthetic images. Here, a ResNet101-based classifier and domain adaptation based on CycleGAN performed extremely well for a ratio for new/known classes; even for more challenging ratios such as , the results are also very positive
A Survey on Deep Neural Network Pruning-Taxonomy, Comparison, Analysis, and Recommendations
Modern deep neural networks, particularly recent large language models, come
with massive model sizes that require significant computational and storage
resources. To enable the deployment of modern models on resource-constrained
environments and accelerate inference time, researchers have increasingly
explored pruning techniques as a popular research direction in neural network
compression. However, there is a dearth of up-to-date comprehensive review
papers on pruning. To address this issue, in this survey, we provide a
comprehensive review of existing research works on deep neural network pruning
in a taxonomy of 1) universal/specific speedup, 2) when to prune, 3) how to
prune, and 4) fusion of pruning and other compression techniques. We then
provide a thorough comparative analysis of seven pairs of contrast settings for
pruning (e.g., unstructured/structured) and explore emerging topics, including
post-training pruning, different levels of supervision for pruning, and broader
applications (e.g., adversarial robustness) to shed light on the commonalities
and differences of existing methods and lay the foundation for further method
development. To facilitate future research, we build a curated collection of
datasets, networks, and evaluations on different applications. Finally, we
provide some valuable recommendations on selecting pruning methods and prospect
promising research directions. We build a repository at
