• Abstract summary: We develop a novel yet simple method to train neural networks, which enables them to classify in-distribution dermoscopic skin disease images. We show that our BinaryHeads model not only does not hurt classification balanced accuracy when the data is imbalanced, but also consistently improves the balanced accuracy.

• Abstract: Medical image diagnosis can be achieved by deep neural networks, provided there is enough varied training data for each disease class. However, a hitherto unknown disease class not encountered during training will inevitably be misclassified, even if predicted with low probability. This problem is especially important for medical image diagnosis, when an image of a hitherto unknown disease is presented for diagnosis, especially when the images come from the same image domain, such as dermoscopic skin images. Current out-of-distribution detection algorithms act unfairly when the in-distribution classes are imbalanced, by favouring the most numerous disease in the training sets. This could lead to false diagnoses for rare cases which are often medically important. We developed a novel yet simple method to train neural networks, which enables them to classify in-distribution dermoscopic skin disease images and also detect novel diseases from dermoscopic images at test time. We show that our BinaryHeads model not only does not hurt classification balanced accuracy when the data is imbalanced, but also consistently improves the balanced accuracy. We also introduce an important method to investigate the effectiveness of out-of-distribution detection methods based on presence of varying amounts of out-of-distribution data, which may arise in real-world settings.

• Trustworthy image-to-image translation: evaluating uncertainty calibration in unpaired training scenarios [0.0]
  Mammographic screening is an effective method for detecting breast cancer, facilitating early diagnosis. Deep neural networks have been shown effective in some studies, but their tendency to overfit leaves considerable risk for poor generalisation and misdiagnosis. Data augmentation schemes based on unpaired neural style transfer models have been proposed that improve generalisability. We evaluate their performance when trained on image patches parsed from three open access mammography datasets and one non-medical image dataset.

  In clinical dermatology, classification models can detect malignant lesions on patients' skin using only RGB images as input. Most learning-based methods employ data acquired from dermoscopic datasets on training, which are large and validated by a gold standard. This work aims to evaluate the gap between dermoscopic and clinical samples and understand how the dataset variations impact training.

  Scaling by training on large datasets has been shown to enhance the quality and fidelity of image generation and manipulation with diffusion models. Latent Drifting enables diffusion models to be conditioned for medical images fitted for the complex task of counterfactual image generation. Our results demonstrate significant performance gains in various scenarios when combined with different fine-tuning schemes.

We propose FairSkin, a novel DM framework that mitigates these biases through a three-level resampling mechanism. Our approach significantly improves the diversity and quality of generated images, contributing to more equitable skin disease detection in clinical settings.

  glaucoma is challenging to detect since it remains asymptomatic until the symptoms are severe. Early identification of glaucoma is generally made based on functional, structural, and clinical assessments. Deep learning methods have partially solved this dilemma by bypassing the marker identification stage and analyzing high-level information directly to classify the data.

  We propose a system that learns not only the probabilistic estimate for classification, but also an explicit uncertainty measure. We argue that this approach is essential to account for the inherent ambiguity characteristic of medical images from different radiologic exams. In our experiments we demonstrate that sample rejection based on the predicted uncertainty can significantly improve the ROC-AUC for various tasks.
