Difficulty-aware Meta-learning for Rare Disease Diagnosis
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we present a difficulty-aware meta-learning method to address rare disease classifications and demonstrate its capability to classify dermoscopy images. ...
Our key approach is to first train and construct a meta-learning model from data of common diseases, then adapt the model to perform rare disease classification.To achieve this, we develop the difficulty-aware ...
Conclusion In this paper, we propose a novel difficulty-aware meta-learning method to tackle the extremely low-data regime problem, i.e., rare disease classification. ...

Annotated images for diagnosis of rare or novel diseases are likely to remain scarce due to small affected patient population and limited clinical expertise to annotate images. ...
We named the proposed method Meta-DermDiagnosis because it utilizes meta-learning based few-shot learning techniques such as the gradient based Reptile and distance metric based Prototypical networks for ...
