Informative sample generation using class aware generative adversarial networks for classification of chest Xrays
Training robust deep learning (DL) systems for disease detection from medical
images is challenging due to limited images covering different disease types
and severity. The problem is especially acute, where there is a severe class
imbalance. We propose an active learning (AL) framework to select most
informative samples for training our model using a Bayesian neural network.
Informative samples are then used within a novel class aware generative
adversarial network (CAGAN) to generate realistic chest xray images for data
augmentation by transferring characteristics from one class label to another.
Experiments show our proposed AL framework is able to achieve state-of-the-art
performance by using about of the full dataset, thus saving significant
time and effort over conventional methods
Segmentation of Medical Images with Adaptable Multifunctional Discretization Bayesian Neural Networks and Gaussian Operations
Bayesian statistics is incorporated into a neural network to create a Bayesian neural network (BNN) that adds posterior inference aims at preventing overfitting. BNNs are frequently used in medical image segmentation because they provide a stochastic viewpoint of segmentation approaches by producing a posterior probability with conventional limitations and allowing the depiction of uncertainty over following distributions. However, the actual efficacy of BNNs is constrained by the difficulty in selecting expressive discretization and accepting suitable following disseminations in a higher-order domain. Functional discretization BNN using Gaussian processes (GPs) that analyze medical image segmentation is proposed in this paper. Here, a discretization inference has been assumed in the functional domain by considering the former and dynamic consequent distributions to be GPs. An upsampling operator that utilizes a content-based feature extraction has been proposed. This is an adaptive method for extracting features after feature mapping is used in conjunction with the functional evidence lower bound and weights. This results in a loss-aware segmentation network that achieves an F1-score of 91.54%, accuracy of 90.24%, specificity of 88.54%, and precision of 80.24%
A Survey on Deep Learning in Medical Image Analysis
Deep learning algorithms, in particular convolutional networks, have rapidly
become a methodology of choice for analyzing medical images. This paper reviews

detection, segmentation, registration, and other tasks and provide concise
overviews of studies per application area. Open challenges and directions for
future research are discussed.Comment: Revised survey includes expanded discussion section and reworked

Data efficient deep learning for medical image analysis: A survey
The rapid evolution of deep learning has significantly advanced the field of
medical image analysis. However, despite these achievements, the further
enhancement of deep learning models for medical image analysis faces a
significant challenge due to the scarcity of large, well-annotated datasets. To
address this issue, recent years have witnessed a growing emphasis on the
development of data-efficient deep learning methods. This paper conducts a
thorough review of data-efficient deep learning methods for medical image
analysis. To this end, we categorize these methods based on the level of
supervision they rely on, encompassing categories such as no supervision,
inexact supervision, incomplete supervision, inaccurate supervision, and only
limited supervision. We further divide these categories into finer
subcategories. For example, we categorize inexact supervision into multiple
instance learning and learning with weak annotations. Similarly, we categorize
incomplete supervision into semi-supervised learning, active learning, and
domain-adaptive learning and so on. Furthermore, we systematically summarize
commonly used datasets for data efficient deep learning in medical image
analysis and investigate future research directions to conclude this survey.Comment: Under Revie
Deep active learning for suggestive segmentation of biomedical image stacks via optimisation of Dice scores and traced boundary length
Manual segmentation of stacks of 2D biomedical images (e.g., histology) is a time-consuming task which can be sped up with semi-automated techniques. In this article, we present a suggestive deep active learning framework that seeks to minimise the annotation effort required to achieve a certain level of accuracy when labelling such a stack. The framework suggests, at every iteration, a specific region of interest (ROI) in one of the images for manual delineation. Using a deep segmentation neural network and a mixed cross-entropy loss function, we propose a principled strategy to estimate class probabilities for the whole stack, conditioned on heterogeneous partial segmentations of the 2D images, as well as on weak supervision in the form of image indices that bound each ROI. Using the estimated probabilities, we propose a novel active learning criterion based on predictions for the estimated segmentation performance and delineation effort, measured with average Dice scores and total delineated boundary length, respectively, rather than common surrogates such as entropy. The query strategy suggests the ROI that is expected to maximise the ratio between performance and effort, while considering the adjacency of structures that may have already been labelled – which decrease the length of the boundary to trace. We provide quantitative results on synthetically deformed MRI scans and real histological data, showing that our framework can reduce labelling effort by up to 60–70% without compromising accuracy
