This article adresses the problem of automatic squamous cells classification for cervical cancer screening using Deep Learning methods. We study different architectures on a public dataset called Herlev dataset, which consists in classifying cells, obtained by cervical pap smear, regarding the severity of the abnormalities they represent. Furthermore, we use an attribution method to understand which cytomorphological features are actually learned as discriminative to classify severity of the abnormalities. Through this paper, we show how we trained a performant classifier: 74.5% accuracy on severity classification and 94% accuracy on normal/abnormal classification.

Recently, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a pandemic disease in over 200 countries, influencing billions of humans. To control the infection, identifying and separating the infected people is the most crucial step. The main diagnos tic tool is the Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test. Still, the sensitivity of the RT-PCR test is not high enough to effectively prevent the pandemic. The chest CT scan test provides a valuable complementary tool to the RT-PCR test, and it can identify the patients in the early-stage with high sensitivity. However, the chest CT scan test is usually time-consuming, requiring about 21.5 minutes per case. This paper develops a novel Joint Classification and Segmentation (JCS) system to perform real-time and explainable COVID-19 chest CT diagnosis. To train our JCS system, we construct a large scale COVID-19 Classification and Segmentation (COVID-CS) dataset, with 144,167 chest CT images of 400 COVID-19 patients and 350 uninfected cases. 3,855 chest CT images of 200 patients are annotated with fine-grained pixel-level labels of opacifications, which are increased attenuation of the lung parenchyma. We also have annotated lesion counts, opacification areas, and locations and thus benefit various diagnosis aspects. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed JCS diagnosis system is very efficient for COVID-19 classification and segmentation. It obtains an average sensitivity of 95.0% and a specificity of 93.0% on the classification test set, and 78.5% Dice score on the segmentation test set of our COVID-CS dataset. The COVID-CS dataset and code are available at https://github.com/yuhuan-wu/JCS.

Early and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimers disease (AD) and its prodromal period mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is essential for the delayed disease progression and the improved quality of patientslife. The emerging computer-aided diagnostic methods that combine deep learning with structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) have achieved encouraging results, but some of them are limit of issues such as data leakage and unexplainable diagnosis. In this research, we propose a novel end-to-end deep learning approach for automated diagnosis of AD and localization of important brain regions related to the disease from sMRI data. This approach is based on a 2D single model strategy and has the following differences from the current approaches: 1) Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models of different structures and capacities are evaluated systemically and the most suitable model is adopted for AD diagnosis; 2) a data augmentation strategy named Two-stage Random RandAugment (TRRA) is proposed to alleviate the overfitting issue caused by limited training data and to improve the classification performance in AD diagnosis; 3) an explainable method of Grad-CAM++ is introduced to generate the visually explainable heatmaps that localize and highlight the brain regions that our model focuses on and to make our model more transparent. Our approach has been evaluated on two publicly accessible datasets for two classification tasks of AD vs. cognitively normal (CN) and progressive MCI (pMCI) vs. stable MCI (sMCI). The experimental results indicate that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches, including those using multi-model and 3D CNN methods. The resultant localization heatmaps from our approach also highlight the lateral ventricle and some disease-relevant regions of cortex, coincident with the commonly affected regions during the development of AD.
Convolutional neural network based systems have largely failed to be adopted in many high-risk application areas, including healthcare, military, security, transportation, finance, and legal, due to their highly uninterpretable black-box nature. Towa rds solving this deficiency, we teach a novel multi-task capsule network to improve the explainability of predictions by embodying the same high-level language used by human-experts. Our explainable capsule network, X-Caps, encodes high-level visual object attributes within the vectors of its capsules, then forms predictions based solely on these human-interpretable features. To encode attributes, X-Caps utilizes a new routing sigmoid function to independently route information from child capsules to parents. Further, to provide radiologists with an estimate of model confidence, we train our network on a distribution of expert labels, modeling inter-observer agreement and punishing over/under confidence during training, supervised by human-experts agreement. X-Caps simultaneously learns attribute and malignancy scores from a multi-center dataset of over 1000 CT scans of lung cancer screening patients. We demonstrate a simple 2D capsule network can outperform a state-of-the-art deep dense dual-path 3D CNN at capturing visually-interpretable high-level attributes and malignancy prediction, while providing malignancy prediction scores approaching that of non-explainable 3D CNNs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate capsule networks for making predictions based on radiologist-level interpretable attributes and its applications to medical image diagnosis.

Automatic segmentation of the prostate cancer from the multi-modal magnetic resonance images is of critical importance for the initial staging and prognosis of patients. However, how to use the multi-modal image features more efficiently is still a c hallenging problem in the field of medical image segmentation. In this paper, we develop a cross-modal self-attention distillation network by fully exploiting the encoded information of the intermediate layers from different modalities, and the extracted attention maps of different modalities enable the model to transfer the significant spatial information with more details. Moreover, a novel spatial correlated feature fusion module is further employed for learning more complementary correlation and non-linear information of different modality images. We evaluate our model in five-fold cross-validation on 358 MRI with biopsy confirmed. Extensive experiment results demonstrate that our proposed network achieves state-of-the-art performance.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been used for automated detection of prostate cancer where Area Under Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) is usually used as the performance metric. Given that AUC is not differentiable, commo n practice is to train the CNN using a loss functions based on other performance metrics such as cross entropy and monitoring AUC to select the best model. In this work, we propose to fine-tune a trained CNN for prostate cancer detection using a Genetic Algorithm to achieve a higher AUC. Our dataset contained 6-channel Diffusion-Weighted MRI slices of prostate. On a cohort of 2,955 training, 1,417 validation, and 1,334 test slices, we reached test AUC of 0.773; a 9.3% improvement compared to the base CNN model.
