First, the amount of training data may be scarce, as it is limited by the number of patients who have acquired the condition to be diagnosed. Second, the training data may be corrupted by various types of noise.

• Abstract: The application of Deep Learning (DL) for medical diagnosis is often hampered by two problems. First, the amount of training data may be scarce, as it is limited by the number of patients who have acquired the condition to be diagnosed. Second, the training data may be corrupted by various types of noise. Here, we study the problem of brain tumor detection from magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data, where both types of problems are prominent. To overcome these challenges, we propose a new method for training a deep neural network that distills particularly representative training examples and augments the training data by mixing these samples from one class with those from the same and other classes to create additional training samples. We demonstrate that this technique substantially improves performance, allowing our method to reach human-expert-level accuracy with just a few thousand training examples. Interestingly, the network learns to rely on features of the data that are usually ignored by human experts, suggesting new directions for future research.

  Brain tumors in magnetic resonance imaging (MR) are difficult, time-consuming, and prone to human error. These challenges can be resolved by developing automatic brain tumor segmentation methods from MR images. Various deep-learning models based on the U-Net have been proposed for the task. These deep-learning models are trained on a dataset of tumor images and then used for segmenting the masks.

  We propose Triplet Training for differential diagnosis with limited target data. It consists of three key stages: (i) self-supervised pre-training on unlabeled data with Barlow Twins, (ii) self-distillation on task-related data, and (iii) fine-tuning on the target dataset. Our approach significantly outperforms traditional training strategies, achieving a balanced accuracy of 75.6%.
