改进模型提升乳腺癌分类准确率,降低误判。

Proof of Concept for Mammography Classification with Enhanced Compactness and Separability Modules

  • 融合全局池化与通道注意力增强特征区分能力。
  • 恶性病例假阴性显著减少,整体分类性能提升。
  • 提供可交互的可视化工具,适合临床研究使用。

本研究验证并扩展了一种用于医学图像分类的新方法框架。尽管先前基于ConvNeXt Tiny的改进架构(融合全局平均池化与最大池化GAGM、轻量级通道注意力SEVector及特征平滑损失FSL)在阿尔茨海默病脑MRI分类上表现优异,且运行于友好CPU环境,但本文探索其在乳腺钼靶图像分类中的可迁移性。利用整合INbreast、MIAS和DDSM数据集的Kaggle数据集,比较了基准CNN、ConvNeXt Tiny与InceptionV3骨干网络,均引入GAGM与SEVector模块。结果表明,GAGM与SEVector有效提升了特征可区分性,显著降低了恶性病例的假阴性。然而,特征平滑损失在本次乳腺钼靶任务中未带来可测量性能提升,暗示其效果可能依赖特定架构与计算条件。此外,本工作扩展原框架,引入多指标评估(宏F1、每类召回方差、ROC/AUC)、Grad CAM特征可解释性分析,并开发了交互式临床探索仪表盘。展望未来,需探索替代方案以进一步提升类内紧凑性与类间分离性,尤其优化恶性与良性病例的区分能力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This study presents a validation and extension of a recent methodological framework for medical image classification. While an improved ConvNeXt Tiny architecture, integrating Global Average and Max Pooling fusion (GAGM), lightweight channel attention (SEVector), and Feature Smoothing Loss (FSL), demonstrated promising results on Alzheimer MRI under CPU friendly conditions, our work investigates its transposability to mammography classification. Using a Kaggle dataset that consolidates INbreast, MIAS, and DDSM mammography collections, we compare a baseline CNN, ConvNeXt Tiny, and InceptionV3 backbones enriched with GAGM and SEVector modules. Results confirm the effectiveness of GAGM and SEVector in enhancing feature discriminability and reducing false negatives, particularly for malignant cases. In our experiments, however, the Feature Smoothing Loss did not yield measurable improvements under mammography classification conditions, suggesting that its effectiveness may depend on specific architectural and computational assumptions. Beyond validation, our contribution extends the original framework through multi metric evaluation (macro F1, per class recall variance, ROC/AUC), feature interpretability analysis (Grad CAM), and the development of an interactive dashboard for clinical exploration. As a perspective, we highlight the need to explore alternative approaches to improve intra class compactness and inter class separability, with the specific goal of enhancing the distinction between malignant and benign cases in mammography classification.
