• Authors: Francesco Galati and Maria A. Zuluaga
• Abstract summary: We present a novel learning framework to monitor the performance of heart segmentation models in the absence of ground truth. We propose two different types of quality measures, a global score and a pixel-wise map. Results show that our framework is accurate, fast, and scalable, confirming it is a viable option for quality control monitoring in clinical practice and large population studies.

• Abstract: Deep learning methods have reached state-of-the-art performance in cardiac image segmentation. Currently, the main bottleneck towards their effective translation into clinics requires assuring continuous high model performance and segmentation results. In this work, we present a novel learning framework to monitor the performance of heart segmentation models in the absence of ground truth. Formulated as an anomaly detection problem, the monitoring framework allows deriving surrogate quality measures for a segmentation and allows flagging suspicious results. We propose two different types of quality measures, a global score and a pixel-wise map. We demonstrate their use by reproducing the final rankings of a cardiac segmentation challenge in the absence of ground truth. Results show that our framework is accurate, fast, and scalable, confirming it is a viable option for quality control monitoring in clinical practice and large population studies.

  We propose Vicinal Labels Under Uncertainty (VLUU) to bridge the methodological gaps in partially supervised learning (PSL) under data scarcity. Motivated by multi-task learning and vicinal risk minimization, VLUU transforms the partially supervised problem into a fully supervised problem by generating vicinal labels. Our research suggests a new research direction in label-efficient deep learning with partial supervision.
