• Abstract summary: This work investigates the feasibility of using an OoD detector to identify when images from the ii OCT probe are inappropriate for machine learning-based distance estimation. We show how a simple OoD detector based on the Mahalanobis distance can successfully reject corrupted samples coming from real-world ex vivo porcine eyes.

• Abstract: Purpose: A fundamental problem in designing safe machine learning systems is identifying when samples presented to a deployed model differ from those observed at training time. Detecting so-called out-of-distribution (OoD) samples is crucial in safety-critical applications such as robotically guided retinal microsurgery, where distances between the instrument and the retina are derived from sequences of 1D images that are acquired by an instrument-integrated optical coherence tomography (iiOCT) probe. Methods: This work investigates the feasibility of using an OoD detector to identify when images from the iiOCT probe are inappropriate for subsequent machine learning-based distance estimation. We show how a simple OoD detector based on the Mahalanobis distance can successfully reject corrupted samples coming from real-world ex vivo porcine eyes. Results: Our results demonstrate that the proposed approach can successfully detect OoD samples and help maintain the performance of the downstream task within reasonable levels. MahaAD outperformed a supervised approach trained on the same kind of corruptions and achieved the best performance in detecting OoD cases from a collection of iiOCT samples with real-world corruptions. Conclusion: The results indicate that detecting corrupted iiOCT data through OoD detection is feasible and does not need prior knowledge of possible corruptions. Consequently, MahaAD could aid in ensuring patient safety during robotically guided microsurgery by preventing deployed prediction models from estimating distances that put the patient at risk.

  We propose a pipeline that combines a histogram-based method and a diffusion-based method. The proposed method is sensitive to blur and bias field samples, but faces challenges with anatomical deformation, black slice, and swapped patches. These findings suggest that further research is needed to improve the performance of DDPM for OOD detection in medical images.

  Deep learning models are not trusted in the clinical routine due to failing silently on out-of-distribution data. We propose a lightweight OOD detection method that leverages the Mahalanobis distance in the feature space. We validate our method across four chest CT distribution shifts and two magnetic resonance imaging applications.

  Anomaly detection (AD) is the identification of data samples that do not fit a learned data distribution. Deep generative models, such as Generative Adrial Networks (GANs), can be exploited to capture anatomical variability.

  Machine learning (ML) systems often encounter Out-of-Distribution (OoD) errors when dealing with testing data coming from a distribution different from training data. Existing OoD detection approaches are prone to errors and even sometimes assign higher likelihoods to OoD samples. We propose Neural Architecture Distribution Search (NADS) to identify common building blocks among all uncertainty-aware architectures.
