For the task of concurrently detecting and categorizing objects, the medical imaging community commonly adopts methods developed on natural images. Current state-of-the-art object detectors are comprised of two stages: the first stage generates region proposals, the second stage subsequently categorizes them. Unlike in natural images, however, for anatomical structures of interest such as tumors, the appearance in the image (e.g., scale or intensity) links to a malignancy grade that lies on a continuous ordinal scale. While classification models discard this ordinal relation between grades by discretizing the continuous scale to an unordered bag of categories, regression models are trained with distance metrics, which preserve the relation. This advantage becomes all the more important in the setting of label confusions on ambiguous data sets, which is the usual case with medical images. To this end, we propose Reg R-CNN, which replaces the second-stage classification model of a current object detector with a regression model. We show the superiority of our approach on a public data set with 1026 patients and a series of toy experiments. Code will be available at github.com/MIC-DKFZ/RegRCNN.
Current state-of-the-art two-stage detectors generate oriented proposals through time-consuming schemes. This diminishes the detectors speed, thereby becoming the computational bottleneck in advanced oriented object detection systems. This work propo
We propose an automatic diabetic retinopathy (DR) analysis algorithm based on two-stages deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN). Compared to existing DCNN-based DR detection methods, the proposed algorithm have the following advantages: (1) Our me
Medical Imaging is one of the growing fields in the world of computer vision. In this study, we aim to address the Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) problem as one of the open challenges in medical imaging. In this research, we propose a new lesion detection
Training deep neural networks (DNNs) in the presence of noisy labels is an important and challenging task. Probabilistic modeling, which consists of a classifier and a transition matrix, depicts the transformation from true labels to noisy labels and
Large-scale datasets with high-quality labels are desired for training accurate deep learning models. However, due to the annotation cost, datasets in medical imaging are often either partially-labeled or small. For example, DeepLesion is such a larg
