Enhancing chest X-ray datasets with privacy-preserving large language models and multi-type annotations: a data-driven approach for improved classification

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Pritam Mukherjee, Ronald Summers

In chest X-ray (CXR) image analysis, rule-based systems are usually employed to extract labels from reports for dataset releases. However, there is still room for improvement in la…

Localization supervision of chest x-ray classifiers using label-specific eye-tracking annotation

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Joyce D. Schroeder, Tolga Tasdizen

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been successfully applied to chest x-ray (CXR) images. Moreover, annotated bounding boxes have been shown to improve the interpretability…

Comparing radiologists' gaze and saliency maps generated by interpretability methods for chest x-rays

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Ambuj Arora, Trafton Drew +2

The interpretability of medical image analysis models is considered a key research field. We use a dataset of eye-tracking data from five radiologists to compare the outputs of int…

REFLACX, a dataset of reports and eye-tracking data for localization of abnormalities in chest x-rays

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Mingyuan Zhang, William F. Auffermann +6

Deep learning has shown recent success in classifying anomalies in chest x-rays, but datasets are still small compared to natural image datasets. Supervision of abnormality localiz…

Quantifying the Preferential Direction of the Model Gradient in Adversarial Training With Projected Gradient Descent

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Joyce D. Schroeder, Tolga Tasdizen

Adversarial training, especially projected gradient descent (PGD), has proven to be a successful approach for improving robustness against adversarial attacks. After adversarial tr…

Interpretation of Disease Evidence for Medical Images Using Adversarial Deformation Fields

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Joyce D. Schroeder, Clement Vachet +1

The high complexity of deep learning models is associated with the difficulty of explaining what evidence they recognize as correlating with specific disease labels. This informati…

Adversarial regression training for visualizing the progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with chest x-rays

Ricardo Bigolin Lanfredi, Joyce D. Schroeder, Clement Vachet +1

Knowledge of what spatial elements of medical images deep learning methods use as evidence is important for model interpretability, trustiness, and validation. There is a lack of s…
