Many recent delineation techniques owe much of their increased effectiveness to path classification algorithms that make it possible to distinguish promising paths from others. The downside of this development is that they require annotated…

While deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis for skin lesion image analysis is approaching dermatologists' performance levels, there are several works showing that incorporating additional features such as shape priors, texture, color…

In this work, we explore the issue of the inter-annotator agreement for training and evaluating automated segmentation of skin lesions. We explore what different degrees of agreement represent, and how they affect different use cases for…

Image segmentation is one of the most essential biomedical image processing problems for different imaging modalities, including microscopy and X-ray in the Internet-of-Medical-Things (IoMT) domain. However, annotating biomedical images is…

Skin cancer is one of the most prevalent and deadly forms of cancer worldwide, highlighting the critical importance of early detection and diagnosis in improving patient outcomes. Deep learning (DL) has shown significant promise in…

We present a deep learning approach to the ISIC 2017 Skin Lesion Classification Challenge using a multi-scale convolutional neural network. Our approach utilizes an Inception-v3 network pre-trained on the ImageNet dataset, which is…

Skin diseases are among the most prevalent health concerns worldwide, yet conventional diagnostic methods are often costly, complex, and unavailable in low-resource settings. Automated classification using deep learning has emerged as a…

In supervised learning, acquiring labeled training data for a predictive model can be very costly, but acquiring a large amount of unlabeled data is often quite easy. Active learning is a method of obtaining predictive models with high…

Machine learning in medical imaging during clinical routine is impaired by changes in scanner protocols, hardware, or policies resulting in a heterogeneous set of acquisition settings. When training a deep learning model on an initial…

Optimal design for model training is a critical topic in machine learning. Active Learning aims at obtaining improved models by querying samples with maximum uncertainty according to the estimation model for artificially labeling; this has…

Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer and its incidence is projected to rise over the next decade. Artificial intelligence is a viable solution to the issue of providing quality care to patients in areas lacking access to…

The rising global prevalence of skin conditions, some of which can escalate to life-threatening stages if not timely diagnosed and treated, presents a significant healthcare challenge. This issue is particularly acute in remote areas where…

The skin, as the largest organ of the human body, is vulnerable to a diverse array of conditions collectively known as skin lesions, which encompass various dermatoses. Diagnosing these lesions presents significant challenges for medical…

3D image segmentation is one of the most important and ubiquitous problems in medical image processing. It provides detailed quantitative analysis for accurate disease diagnosis, abnormal detection, and classification. Currently deep…

Active learning aims to reduce labeling efforts by selectively asking humans to annotate the most important data points from an unlabeled pool and is an example of human-machine interaction. Though active learning has been extensively…

Fully annotated large-scale medical image datasets are highly valuable. However, because labeling medical images is tedious and requires specialized knowledge, the large-scale datasets available often have missing annotation issues. For…

Although deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have achieved significant accuracy in skin lesion classification comparable or even superior to those of dermatologists, practical implementation of these models for skin cancer screening…

Skin cancer holds the highest incidence rate among all cancers globally. The importance of early detection cannot be overstated, as late-stage cases can be lethal. Classifying skin lesions, however, presents several challenges due to the…

Universal lesion detection has great value for clinical practice as it aims to detect various types of lesions in multiple organs on medical images. Deep learning methods have shown promising results, but demanding large volumes of…

The cost of drawing object bounding boxes (i.e. labeling) for millions of images is prohibitively high. For instance, labeling pedestrians in a regular urban image could take 35 seconds on average. Active learning aims to reduce the cost of…
