Abstract: Selective Reduction of CT Data for Self-supervised Pre-training Improves Downstream Classification Performance
摘要
Self-supervised pre-training of deep learning models with contrastive learning is a widely used technique in image analysis. As shown in our previous work [1] contrastive pre-training has strong potential on medical images. However, further research is necessary to incorporate the particular characteristics of these images.We hypothesize that the similarity of medical images hinders the success of contrastive learning in the medical imaging domain.
