Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD) is an irreversible and progressive disease which is highly heritable. Clinically, COPD is defined using the summary measures derived from a spirometry test but these are not always adequate.…

Epidemiologic and genetic studies in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and many complex diseases suggest subgroup disparities (e.g., by sex). We consider this problem from the standpoint of integrative analysis where we combine…

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Current COPD diagnosis (i.e., spirometry) could be unreliable because the test depends on an adequate effort from the tester and testee. Moreover,…

Despite the potential of weakly supervised learning to automatically annotate massive amounts of data, little is known about its limitations for use in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD). For CT specifically, interpreting the performance of CAD…

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Identifying those at highest risk of deterioration would allow more effective distribution of preventative and surveillance resources.…

The COVID-19 pandemic presented numerous challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. Given that lung infections are prevalent among COVID-19 patients, chest Computer Tomography (CT) scans have frequently been utilized as an alternative…

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) present diagnostic challenges due to their varied manifestations and overlapping imaging features. To address this, we propose a machine learning approach that utilizes CLIP, a multimodal (image and text)…

Lung cancer remains one of the most common and deadliest forms of cancer worldwide. The likelihood of successful treatment depends strongly on the stage at which the disease is diagnosed. Therefore, early detection of lung cancer represents…

Multiple instance learning (MIL) is often used in medical imaging to classify high-resolution 2D images by processing patches or classify 3D volumes by processing slices. However, conventional MIL approaches treat instances separately,…

Deep learning models have revolutionized the field of medical image analysis, due to their outstanding performances. However, they are sensitive to spurious correlations, often taking advantage of dataset bias to improve results for…

CT imaging is crucial for diagnosis, assessment and staging COVID-19 infection. Follow-up scans every 3-5 days are often recommended for disease progression. It has been reported that bilateral and peripheral ground glass opacification…

We address the problem of \emph{instance label stability} in multiple instance learning (MIL) classifiers. These classifiers are trained only on globally annotated images (bags), but often can provide fine-grained annotations for image…

Multiple instance learning (MIL) is a supervised learning methodology that aims to allow models to learn instance class labels from bag class labels, where a bag is defined to contain multiple instances. MIL is gaining traction for learning…

Chest computed tomography (CT) has played an essential diagnostic role in assessing patients with COVID-19 by showing disease-specific image features such as ground-glass opacity and consolidation. Image segmentation methods have proven to…

Medical image classification and segmentation based on deep learning (DL) are emergency research topics for diagnosing variant viruses of the current COVID-19 situation. In COVID-19 computed tomography (CT) images of the lungs, ground glass…

We present a fairness-aware framework for multi-class lung disease diagnosis from chest CT volumes, developed for the Fair Disease Diagnosis Challenge at the PHAROS-AIF-MIH Workshop (CVPR 2026). The challenge requires classifying CT scans…

The novelty of the COVID-19 disease and the speed of spread has created a colossal chaos, impulse among researchers worldwide to exploit all the resources and capabilities to understand and analyze characteristics of the coronavirus in term…

Objectives: To investigate machine-learning classifiers and interpretable models using chest CT for detection of COVID-19 and differentiation from other pneumonias, ILD and normal CTs. Methods: Our retrospective multi-institutional study…
