Which Pretext Task Transfers? Self-Supervised Pretraining Objectives for Lung Ultrasound
Moein Heidari, Junbo Rao, Jai Choraria +3
Self-supervised learning (SSL) can reduce the need for labelled medical images, but the choice of pretext objective remains unclear for lung ultrasound (LUS). Contrastive learning,…
MaLViL: Multi-axis Low-rank Vision-LSTM for Medical Image Segmentation
Afshin Bozorgpour, Sina Ghorbani Kolahi, Moein Heidari +2
Vision-LSTM (ViL) enables efficient global modeling, but its cost still scales with the number of spatial tokens, so existing segmenters confine ViL to a coarse bottleneck and lose…
When Minor Edits Matter: LLM-Driven Prompt Attack for Medical VLM Robustness in Ultrasound
Yasamin Medghalchi, Milad Yazdani, Amirhossein Dabiriaghdam +7
Ultrasound is widely used in clinical practice due to its portability, cost-effectiveness, safety, and real-time imaging capabilities. However, image acquisition and interpretation…
WaRA: Wavelet Low-Rank Adaptation for Medical Image Classification
Moein Heidari, Yijin Huang, Yasamin Medghalchi +4
Adapting large pretrained vision models to medical image classification is often limited by memory, computation, and task-specific specializations. Parameter-efficient fine-tuning…
Prompt2Perturb (P2P): Text-Guided Diffusion-Based Adversarial Attacks on Breast Ultrasound Images
Yasamin Medghalchi, Moein Heidari, Clayton Allard +2
Deep neural networks (DNNs) offer significant promise for improving breast cancer diagnosis in medical imaging. However, these models are highly susceptible to adversarial attacks-…
SLA-INR: Single-Layer Learnable Activation for Implicit Neural Representation
