Non-Redundant Combination of Hand-Crafted and Deep Learning Radiomics: Application to the Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer

We address the problem of learning Deep Learning Radiomics (DLR) that are not redundant with Hand-Crafted Radiomics (HCR). To do so, we extract DLR features using a VAE while enforcing their independence with HCR features by minimizing their mutual information. The resulting DLR features can be combined with hand-crafted ones and leveraged by a classifier to predict early markers of cancer. We illustrate our method on four early markers of pancreatic cancer and validate it on a large independent test set. Our results highlight the value of combining non-redundant DLR and HCR features, as evidenced by an improvement in the Area Under the Curve compared to baseline methods that do not address redundancy or solely rely on HCR features.

Learning shape distributions from large databases of healthy organs: applications to zero-shot and few-shot abnormal pancreas detection

We propose a scalable and data-driven approach to learn shape distributions from large databases of healthy organs. To do so, volumetric segmentation masks are embedded into a common probabilistic shape space that is learned with a variational auto-encoding network. The resulting latent shape representations are leveraged to derive zeroshot and few-shot methods for abnormal shape detection. The proposed distribution learning approach is illustrated on a large database of 1200 healthy pancreas shapes. Downstream qualitative and quantitative experiments are conducted on a separate test set of 224 pancreas from patients with mixed conditions. The abnormal pancreas detection AUC reached up to 65.41% in the zero-shot configuration, and 78.97% in the few-shot configuration with as few as 15 abnormal examples, outperforming a baseline approach based on the sole volume.
