Disentangling Visual Attributes for Inherently Interpretable Medical Image Classification
M
Project description:
Interpretability is essential for a deep neural network approach when applied to crucial scenarios such as medical image processing. Current gradient-based [1] and counterfactual image-based [2] interpretability approaches can only provide information of where the evidence is. We also want to know what the evidence is. In this master thesis project, we will build an inherently interpretable classification method. This classifier can learn disentangled features that are semantically meaningful and, in the future, corresponding to related clinical concepts.
This project based on a previous proposed visual feature attribution method in [3]. This method can generate class relevant attribution map for a given input disease image. We will extend this method to generate class relevant shape variations and design an inherently interpretable classifier only using the disentangled features (class relevant intensity variation and shape variation). This method can be further extended by disentangling more semantically meaningful and causal independent features such as texture, shape, and background as the work in [4].
