Not-so-supervised: A survey of semi-supervised, multi-instance, and transfer learning in medical image analysis.

Medical image analysis
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have made a tremendous impact in the field of medical imaging. While medical imaging datasets have been growing in size, a challenge for supervised ML algorithms that is frequently mentioned is the lack of annotated d...

Pulmonary nodule detection in CT scans with equivariant CNNs.

Medical image analysis
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) require a large amount of annotated data to learn from, which is often difficult to obtain for medical imaging problems. In this work we show that the sample complexity of CNNs can be significantly improved by usi...

Integrating spatial configuration into heatmap regression based CNNs for landmark localization.

Medical image analysis
In many medical image analysis applications, only a limited amount of training data is available due to the costs of image acquisition and the large manual annotation effort required from experts. Training recent state-of-the-art machine learning met...

Patient-attentive sequential strategy for perimetry-based visual field acquisition.

Medical image analysis
Perimetry is a non-invasive clinical psychometric examination used for diagnosing ophthalmic and neurological conditions. At its core, perimetry relies on a subject pressing a button whenever they see a visual stimulus within their field of view. Thi...

A modality-adaptive method for segmenting brain tumors and organs-at-risk in radiation therapy planning.

Medical image analysis
In this paper we present a method for simultaneously segmenting brain tumors and an extensive set of organs-at-risk for radiation therapy planning of glioblastomas. The method combines a contrast-adaptive generative model for whole-brain segmentation...

BIRNet: Brain image registration using dual-supervised fully convolutional networks.

Medical image analysis
In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach for image registration by predicting deformation from image appearance. Since obtaining ground-truth deformation fields for training can be challenging, we design a fully convolutional network that i...

CT male pelvic organ segmentation using fully convolutional networks with boundary sensitive representation.

Medical image analysis
Accurate segmentation of the prostate and organs at risk (e.g., bladder and rectum) in CT images is a crucial step for radiation therapy in the treatment of prostate cancer. However, it is a very challenging task due to unclear boundaries, large intr...

Predicting breast tumor proliferation from whole-slide images: The TUPAC16 challenge.

Medical image analysis
Tumor proliferation is an important biomarker indicative of the prognosis of breast cancer patients. Assessment of tumor proliferation in a clinical setting is a highly subjective and labor-intensive task. Previous efforts to automate tumor prolifera...

Deep-learning based multiclass retinal fluid segmentation and detection in optical coherence tomography images using a fully convolutional neural network.

Medical image analysis
As a non-invasive imaging modality, optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide micrometer-resolution 3D images of retinal structures. These images can help reveal disease-related alterations below the surface of the retina, such as the presence o...

Medical image classification using synergic deep learning.

Medical image analysis
The classification of medical images is an essential task in computer-aided diagnosis, medical image retrieval and mining. Although deep learning has shown proven advantages over traditional methods that rely on the handcrafted features, it remains c...
