• Title: Domain-Aware Few-Shot Learning for Optical Coherence Tomography Noise Reduction
• Authors: Deborah Pereg
• Abstract summary: We propose a few-shot supervised learning framework for optical coherence tomography ( OCT) noise reduction. This framework offers a dramatic increase in training speed and requires only a single image, or part of an image, and a corresponding speckle suppressed ground truth. Our results demonstrate significant potential for improving sample complexity, generalization, and time efficiency.

• Abstract: Speckle noise has long been an extensively studied problem in medical imaging. In recent years, there have been significant advances in leveraging deep learning methods for noise reduction. Nevertheless, adaptation of supervised learning models to unseen domains remains a challenging problem. Specifically, deep neural networks (DNNs) trained for computational imaging tasks are vulnerable to changes in the acquisition system's physical parameters, such as: sampling space, resolution, and contrast. Even within the same acquisition system, performance degrades across datasets of different biological tissues. In this work, we propose a few-shot supervised learning framework for optical coherence tomography (OCT) noise reduction, that offers a dramatic increase in training speed and requires only a single image, or part of an image, and a corresponding speckle suppressed ground truth, for training. Furthermore, we formulate the domain shift problem for OCT diverse imaging systems, and prove that the output resolution of a despeckling trained model is determined by the source domain resolution. We also provide possible remedies. We propose different practical implementations of our approach, verify and compare their applicability, robustness, and computational efficiency. Our results demonstrate significant potential for generally improving sample complexity, generalization, and time efficiency, for coherent and non-coherent noise reduction via supervised learning models, that can also be leveraged for other real-time computer vision applications.

  Deep Learning (DL) models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in diagnosing multiple diseases using reconstructed images as input. DL models are sensitive to varying artifacts as it leads to changes in the input data distribution between the training and testing phases. We propose to use other normalization techniques, such as Group Normalization and Layer Normalization, to inject robustness into model performance against varying image artifacts.
