A case for reframing automated medical image classification as segmentation

NeurIPS 2023poster

Image classification and segmentation are common applications of deep learning to radiology. While many tasks can be framed using either classification or segmentation, classification has historically been cheaper to label and more widely used. However, recent work has drastically reduced the cost o…

ViLLA: Fine-Grained Vision-Language Representation Learning from Real-World Data

ICCV 2023poster

Vision-language models (VLMs), such as CLIP and ALIGN, are generally trained on datasets consisting of image-caption pairs obtained from the web. However, real-world multimodal datasets, such as healthcare data, are significantly more complex: each image (e.g. X-ray) is often paired with text (e.g.…

Cut out the annotator, keep the cutout: better segmentation with weak supervision

ICLR 2021poster

Constructing large, labeled training datasets for segmentation models is an expensive and labor-intensive process. This is a common challenge in machine learning, addressed by methods that require few or no labeled data points such as few-shot learning (FSL) and weakly-supervised learning (WS). Such…

Fast and Three-rious: Speeding Up Weak Supervision with Triplet Methods

ICML 2020poster

Weak supervision is a popular method for building machine learning models without relying on ground truth annotations. Instead, it generates probabilistic training labels by estimating the accuracies of multiple noisy labeling sources (e.g., heuristics, crowd workers). Existing approaches use latent…
