Cost-Effective Active Learning for Melanoma Segmentation

24 Nov 2017  ·  Marc Gorriz, Axel Carlier, Emmanuel Faure, Xavier Giro-i-Nieto ·

We propose a novel Active Learning framework capable to train effectively a convolutional neural network for semantic segmentation of medical imaging, with a limited amount of training labeled data. Our contribution is a practical Cost-Effective Active Learning approach using dropout at test time as Monte Carlo sampling to model the pixel-wise uncertainty and to analyze the image information to improve the training performance.
