Lesion Search with Self-supervised Learning

18 Nov 2023  ·  Kristin Qi, Jiali Cheng, Daniel Haehn ·

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) with self-supervised learning (SSL) accelerates clinicians' interpretation of similar images without manual annotations. We develop a CBIR from the contrastive learning SimCLR and incorporate a generalized-mean (GeM) pooling followed by L2 normalization to classify lesion types and retrieve similar images before clinicians' analysis. Results have shown improved performance. We additionally build an open-source application for image analysis and retrieval. The application is easy to integrate, relieving manual efforts and suggesting the potential to support clinicians' everyday activities.
