用于乳腺密度分类的联邦学习:真实世界的实现
Federated Learning for Breast Density Classification: A Real-World Implementation
摘要:
构建强大的基于深度学习的模型需要大量不同的训练数据。在本研究中,我们研究了使用联邦学习(FL)在现实世界的协作环境中构建医学成像分类模型。来自世界各地的七家临床机构加入了FL的工作,训练基于乳腺成像、报告和数据系统(BI-RADS)的乳腺密度分类模型。我们表明,尽管来自所有站点的数据集之间存在很大差异(乳腺X射线摄影系统,类分布和数据集大小),并且没有集中数据,但我们可以成功地在联邦中训练AI模型。结果表明,使用FL训练的模型平均比仅使用研究所本地数据训练的模型好6.3%。此外,我们显示了45.8%的相对改善模型的泛化时,其他参与网站的测试数据进行评估。
英文摘要:
Building robust deep learning-based models requires large quantities of diverse training data. In this study, we investigate the use of federated learning (FL) to build medical imaging classification models in a real-world collaborative setting. Seven clinical institutions from across the world joined this FL effort to train a model for breast density classification based on Breast Imaging, Reporting & Data System (BI-RADS). We show that despite substantial differences among the datasets from all sites (mammography system, class distribution, and data set size) and without centralizing data, we can successfully train AI models in federation. The results show that models trained using FL perform 6.3% on average better than their counterparts trained on an institute's local data alone. Furthermore, we show a 45.8% relative improvement in the models' generalizability when evaluated on the other participating sites' testing data.
