Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a group of life threatening conditions of the aorta. We have developed an end-to-end automatic approach to detect AAS in computed tomography (CT) images. Our approach consists of two steps. At first, we extract N cross sections along the segmented aorta centerline for each CT scan. These cross sections are stacked together to form a new volume which is then classified using two different classifiers, a 3D convolutional neural network (3D CNN) and a multiple instance learning (MIL). We trained, validated, and compared two models on 2291 contrast CT volumes. We tested on a set aside cohort of 230 normal and 50 positive CT volumes. Our models detected AAS with an Area under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.965 and 0.985 using 3DCNN and MIL, respectively.

Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) caused by prenatal alcohol exposure can result in a series of cranio-facial anomalies, and behavioral and neurocognitive problems. Current diagnosis of FAS is typically done by identifying a set of facial characteristics,
which are often obtained by manual examination. Anatomical landmark detection, which provides rich geometric information, is important to detect the presence of FAS associated facial anomalies. This imaging application is characterized by large variations in data appearance and limited availability of labeled data. Current deep learning-based heatmap regression methods designed for facial landmark detection in natural images assume availability of large datasets and are therefore not wellsuited for this application. To address this restriction, we develop a new regularized transfer learning approach that exploits the knowledge of a network learned on large facial recognition datasets. In contrast to standard transfer learning which focuses on adjusting the pre-trained weights, the proposed learning approach regularizes the model behavior. It explicitly reuses the rich visual semantics of a domain-similar source model on the target task data as an additional supervisory signal for regularizing landmark detection optimization. Specifically, we develop four regularization constraints for the proposed transfer learning, including constraining the feature outputs from classification and intermediate layers, as well as matching activation attention maps in both spatial and channel levels. Experimental evaluation on a collected clinical imaging dataset demonstrate that the proposed approach can effectively improve model generalizability under limited training samples, and is advantageous to other approaches in the literature.
Computerized detection of colonic polyps remains an unsolved issue because of the wide variation in the appearance, texture, color, size, and presence of the multiple polyp-like imitators during colonoscopy. In this paper, we propose a deep convoluti
onal neural network based model for the computerized detection of polyps within colonoscopy images. The proposed model comprises 16 convolutional layers with 2 fully connected layers, and a Softmax layer, where we implement a unique approach using different convolutional kernels within the same hidden layer for deeper feature extraction. We applied two different activation functions, MISH and rectified linear unit activation functions for deeper propagation of information and self regularized smooth non-monotonicity. Furthermore, we used a generalized intersection of union, thus overcoming issues such as scale invariance, rotation, and shape. Data augmentation techniques such as photometric and geometric distortions are adapted to overcome the obstacles faced in polyp detection. Detailed benchmarked results are provided, showing better performance in terms of precision, sensitivity, F1- score, F2- score, and dice-coefficient, thus proving the efficacy of the proposed model.
Objective: To develop an automatic image normalization algorithm for intensity correction of images from breast dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) acquired by different MRI scanners with various imaging parameters, using o
nly image information. Methods: DCE-MR images of 460 subjects with breast cancer acquired by different scanners were used in this study. Each subject had one T1-weighted pre-contrast image and three T1-weighted post-contrast images available. Our normalization algorithm operated under the assumption that the same type of tissue in different patients should be represented by the same voxel value. We used four tissue/material types as the anchors for the normalization: 1) air, 2) fat tissue, 3) dense tissue, and 4) heart. The algorithm proceeded in the following two steps: First, a state-of-the-art deep learning-based algorithm was applied to perform tissue segmentation accurately and efficiently. Then, based on the segmentation results, a subject-specific piecewise linear mapping function was applied between the anchor points to normalize the same type of tissue in different patients into the same intensity ranges. We evaluated the algorithm with 300 subjects used for training and the rest used for testing. Results: The application of our algorithm to images with different scanning parameters resulted in highly improved consistency in pixel values and extracted radiomics features. Conclusion: The proposed image normalization strategy based on tissue segmentation can perform intensity correction fully automatically, without the knowledge of the scanner parameters. Significance: We have thoroughly tested our algorithm and showed that it successfully normalizes the intensity of DCE-MR images. We made our software publicly available for others to apply in their analyses.
Using state-of-the-art deep learning models for cancer diagnosis presents several challenges related to the nature and availability of labeled histology images. In particular, cancer grading and localization in these images normally relies on both im
age- and pixel-level labels, the latter requiring a costly annotation process. In this survey, deep weakly-supervised learning (WSL) models are investigated to identify and locate diseases in histology images, without the need for pixel-level annotations. Given training data with global image-level labels, these models allow to simultaneously classify histology images and yield pixel-wise localization scores, thereby identifying the corresponding regions of interest (ROI). Since relevant WSL models have mainly been investigated within the computer vision community, and validated on natural scene images, we assess the extent to which they apply to histology images which have challenging properties, e.g. very large size, similarity between foreground/background, highly unstructured regions, stain heterogeneity, and noisy/ambiguous labels. The most relevant models for deep WSL are compared experimentally in terms of accuracy (classification and pixel-wise localization) on several public benchmark histology datasets for breast and colon cancer -- BACH ICIAR 2018, BreaKHis, CAMELYON16, and GlaS. Furthermore, for large-scale evaluation of WSL models on histology images, we propose a protocol to construct WSL datasets from Whole Slide Imaging. Results indicate that several deep learning models can provide a high level of classification accuracy, although accurate pixel-wise localization of cancer regions remains an issue for such images. Code is publicly available.
Water quality has a direct impact on industry, agriculture, and public health. Algae species are common indicators of water quality. It is because algal communities are sensitive to changes in their habitats, giving valuable knowledge on variations i
n water quality. However, water quality analysis requires professional inspection of algal detection and classification under microscopes, which is very time-consuming and tedious. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-target deep learning framework for algal detection and classification. Extensive experiments were carried out on a large-scale colored microscopic algal dataset. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method leads to the promising performance on algal detection, class identification and genus identification.
