- Abstract summary: A novel, robust approach based on Theil-type weighted regression is proposed for estimating self-similarity in two-dimensional data (images)
As an application, the suitability of the self-similarity estimate resulting from the the robust approach is illustrated as a predictive feature in the classification of digitized mammogram images as cancerous or non-cancerous.

- Abstract: A number of approaches have dealt with statistical assessment of
self-similarity, and many of those are based on multiscale concepts. Most rely
on certain distributional assumptions which are usually violated by real data
traces, often characterized by large temporal or spatial mean level shifts,
missing values or extreme observations. A novel, robust approach based on
Theil-type weighted regression is proposed for estimating self-similarity in
two-dimensional data (images). The method is compared to two traditional
estimation techniques that use wavelet decompositions; ordinary least squares
(OLS) and Abry-Veitch bias correcting estimator (AV). As an application, the
suitability of the self-similarity estimate resulting from the the robust
approach is illustrated as a predictive feature in the classification of
digitized mammogram images as cancerous or non-cancerous. The diagnostic
employed here is based on the properties of image backgrounds, which is
typically an unused modality in breast cancer screening. Classification results
show nearly 68% accuracy, varying slightly with the choice of wavelet basis,
and the range of multiresolution levels used.

In high-risk environments, deep learning models need to be able to judge their uncertainty and reject inputs when there is a significant chance of misclassification.
We conduct a rigorous evaluation of the most commonly used uncertainty and robustness methods for the classification of Whole Slide Images.
We observe that ensembles of methods generally lead to better uncertainty estimates as well as an increased robustness towards domain shifts and label noise.
