Metrics reloaded: Recommendations for image analysis validation
The framework was developed in a multi-stage Delphi process and is based on the novel concept of a problem fingerprint - a structured representation of the given problem that captures all aspects that are relevant for metric selection, from the domain interest to the properties of the target structure(s), data set and algorithm output.

The source datasets do not have to be related to the target task.
Cats, not CAT scans: a study of dataset similarity in transfer learning for 2D medical image classification
There is currently no consensus on how to choose appropriate source data, and in the literature we can find both evidence of favoring large natural image datasets such as ImageNet, and evidence of favoring more specialized medical datasets.
Revisiting Hidden Representations in Transfer Learning for Medical Imaging
Our findings show that the similarity between networks before and after fine-tuning does not correlate with performance gains, suggesting that the advantages of transfer learning might not solely originate from the reuse of features in the early layers of a convolutional neural network.
Crowdsourcing Airway Annotations in Chest Computed Tomography Images
We generate image slices at known locations of airways in 24 subjects and request the crowd workers to outline the airway lumen and airway wall.
Source Matters: Source Dataset Impact on Model Robustness in Medical Imaging
However, the domain shift from natural to medical images has prompted alternatives such as RadImageNet, often demonstrating comparable classification performance.
Multi-task Ensembles with Crowdsourced Features Improve Skin Lesion Diagnosis
Machine learning has a recognised need for large amounts of annotated data.

Supervised learning is ubiquitous in medical image analysis.
Early Experiences with Crowdsourcing Airway Annotations in Chest CT
Measuring airways in chest computed tomography (CT) images is important for characterizing diseases such as cystic fibrosis, yet very time-consuming to perform manually.
Automatic Emphysema Detection using Weakly Labeled HRCT Lung Images
The classifier has a stronger correlation with PFT than the density based method, the percentage of emphysema in the intersection of annotations from both radiologists, and the percentage of emphysema annotated by one of the radiologists.
Label Stability in Multiple Instance Learning
We address the problem of \emph{instance label stability} in multiple instance learning (MIL) classifiers.
Transfer Learning by Asymmetric Image Weighting for Segmentation across Scanners
We show that the asymmetry can indeed be informative, and that computing the similarity from the test image to the training images is more appropriate than the opposite direction.
Classification of COPD with Multiple Instance Learning
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease where early detection benefits the survival rate.
Multiple Instance Learning: A Survey of Problem Characteristics and Applications
Multiple instance learning (MIL) is a form of weakly supervised learning where training instances are arranged in sets, called bags, and a label is provided for the entire bag.
On Classification with Bags, Groups and Sets
To better deal with such problems, several extensions of supervised learning have been proposed, where either training and/or test objects are sets of feature vectors.
Multiple Instance Learning with Bag Dissimilarities
Multiple instance learning (MIL) is concerned with learning from sets (bags) of objects (instances), where the individual instance labels are ambiguous.
Quantile Representation for Indirect Immunofluorescence Image Classification
Considering one whole slide as a collection (a bag) of feature vectors, however, poses the problem of how to handle this bag.
Dissimilarity-based Ensembles for Multiple Instance Learning
In multiple instance learning, objects are sets (bags) of feature vectors (instances) rather than individual feature vectors.

When performing a comparison of different MIL classifiers, it is important to understand the differences of the datasets, used in the comparison.
Crowd disagreement about medical images is informative
Classifiers for medical image analysis are often trained with a single consensus label, based on combining labels given by experts or crowds.
