As deep learning inference is increasingly deployed in shared and cloud-based settings, a growing concern is input repurposing, in which data submitted for one task is reused by unauthorized models for another. Existing privacy defenses…

Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) has become the predominant approach for classification tasks on gigapixel histopathology whole slide images (WSIs). Within the MIL framework, single WSIs (bags) are decomposed into patches (instances), with…

Multiple-instance learning is a subset of weakly supervised learning where labels are applied to sets of instances rather than the instances themselves. Under the standard assumption, a set is positive only there is if at least one instance…
