Background and objectives. Domain shift is a generalisation problem of machine learning models that occurs when the data distribution of the training set is different to the data distribution encountered by the model when it is deployed.…
The diversity of retinal imaging devices poses a significant challenge: domain shift, which leads to performance degradation when applying the deep learning models trained on one domain to new testing domains. In this paper, we propose a…
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, with over two million new cases each year. During diagnostic tumour grading, pathologists manually count the number of dividing cells (mitotic figures) in biopsy or tumour…
Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) based on histopathological imaging has progressed rapidly in recent years with the rise of machine learning based methodologies. Traditional approaches consist of training a classification model using features…
This is an empirical study to investigate the impact of scanner effects when using machine learning on multi-site neuroimaging data. We utilize structural T1-weighted brain MRI obtained from two different studies, Cam-CAN and UK Biobank.…
A pretrain-finetune strategy is widely used to reduce the overfitting that can occur when data is insufficient for CNN training. First few layers of a CNN pretrained on a large-scale RGB dataset are capable of acquiring general image…
Human skin detection in images is a widely studied topic of Computer Vision for which it is commonly accepted that analysis of pixel color or local patches may suffice. This is because skin regions appear to be relatively uniform and many…
Domain shift, the mismatch between training and testing data characteristics, causes significant degradation in the predictive performance in multi-source imaging scenarios. In medical imaging, the heterogeneity of population, scanners and…
