Uncertainty-aware convolutional neural network for COVID-19 X-ray images classification

Mahesh Gour et al.

Summary: This study developed an uncertainty-aware neural network model, UA-ConvNet, for automated detection of COVID-19 disease from chest X-ray images with an estimation of uncertainty in model predictions. The model was evaluated on three different datasets and showed superiority in diagnosing COVID-19 cases from CXR images over existing methods.

Objective evaluation of deep uncertainty predictions for COVID-19 detection

Hamzeh Asgharnezhad et al.

Summary: This study focuses on uncertainty quantification of deep neural networks for COVID-19 detection in medical images. Through comprehensive experiments, it is shown that networks pertained on CXR images outperform networks pretrained on natural image datasets. Uncertainty quantification methods are capable of flagging risky predictions with high uncertainty estimates. Ensemble methods more reliably capture uncertainties. Previous studies mainly focused on generating single-valued predictions, while this paper introduces new performance metrics for the objective evaluation of uncertainty estimates.

Estimating uncertainty in deep learning for reporting confidence to clinicians in medical image segmentation and diseases detection

Biraja Ghoshal et al.

Summary: Deep learning has made remarkable progress in medical image analysis, but current methods focus solely on accuracy of point predictions without considering the quality of outputs. This article proposes an uncertainty estimation framework, MC-DropWeights, to approximate Bayesian inference in DL by applying a Bernoulli distribution to model weights. By decomposing predictive probabilities into two main types of uncertainty and addressing mode collapse in variational inference, the MC-DropWeights method demonstrates improved estimation of uncertainty quality in image classification.

Stochastic Gradient Markov Chain Monte Carlo

Christopher Nemeth et al.

Summary: MCMC algorithms are considered the gold standard technique for Bayesian inference, but the computational cost can be prohibitive for large datasets, leading to the development of scalable Monte Carlo algorithms. One type of these algorithms is SGMCMC, which reduces per-iteration cost by utilizing data subsampling techniques.

Automatic detection of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) using X-ray images and deep convolutional neural networks

Ali Narin et al.

Summary: The 2019 novel coronavirus disease has rapidly spread worldwide, with nearly 101,917,147 cases reported, leading to a limited availability of COVID-19 test kits in hospitals. To address this, an automatic detection system using pre-trained convolutional neural network-based models was proposed for detecting coronavirus pneumonia-infected patients. Among the five models tested, ResNet50 demonstrated the highest accuracy in classifying COVID-19 patients from X-ray images.

AI for radiographic COVID-19 detection selects shortcuts over signal

Alex J. DeGrave et al.

Summary: Recent deep learning systems to detect COVID-19 from chest radiographs may rely on confounding factors rather than medical pathology, leading to accuracy issues when tested in new hospitals. The approach to obtain training data for these AI systems introduces a nearly ideal scenario for learning spurious shortcuts, raising concerns in medical-imaging AI. Evaluation of models on external data is insufficient to ensure reliance on medically relevant pathology, highlighting the importance of explainable AI for clinical deployment of machine-learning healthcare models.
