Functional subnetwork extraction is commonly used to explore the brain's modular structure. However, reliable subnetwork extraction from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data remains challenging due to the pronounced noise in neuroimaging data. In this paper, we proposed a high order relation informed approach based on hypergraph to combine the information from multi-task data and resting state data to improve subnetwork extraction. Our assumption is that task data can be beneficial for the subnetwork extraction process, since the repeatedly activated nodes involved in diverse tasks might be the canonical network components which comprise pre-existing repertoires of resting state subnetworks. Our proposed high order relation informed subnetwork extraction based on a strength information embedded hypergraph, (1) facilitates the multisource integration for subnetwork extraction, (2) utilizes information on relationships and changes between the nodes across different tasks, and (3) enables the study on higher order relations among brain network nodes. On real data, we demonstrated that fusing task activation, task-induced connectivity and resting state functional connectivity based on hypergraphs improves subnetwork extraction compared to employing a single source from either rest or task data in terms of subnetwork modularity measure, inter-subject reproducibility, along with more biologically meaningful subnetwork assignments.

Validation metrics are key for tracking scientific progress and bridging the current chasm between artificial intelligence (AI) research and its translation into practice. However, increasing evidence shows that particularly in image analysis, metrics are often chosen inadequately. While taking into account the individual strengths, weaknesses, and limitations of validation metrics is a critical prerequisite to making educated choices, the relevant knowledge is currently scattered and poorly accessible to individual researchers. Based on a multi-stage Delphi process conducted by a multidisciplinary expert consortium as well as extensive community feedback, the present work provides the first reliable and comprehensive common point of access to information on pitfalls related to validation metrics in image analysis. While focused on biomedical image analysis, the addressed pitfalls generalize across application domains and are categorized according to a newly created, domain-agnostic taxonomy. The work serves to enhance global comprehension of a key topic in image analysis validation. © 2023, CC BY.

Increasing evidence shows that flaws in machine learning (ML) algorithm validation are an underestimated global problem. Particularly in automatic biomedical image analysis, chosen performance metrics often do not reflect the domain interest, thus failing to adequately measure scientific progress and hindering translation of ML techniques into practice. To overcome this, we created Metrics Reloaded, a comprehensive framework guiding researchers in the problem-aware selection of metrics. It was developed by a large international consortium in a multi-stage Delphi process and is based on the novel concept of a problem fingerprint – a structured representation of the given problem that captures all aspects that are relevant for metric selection, from the domain interest to the properties of the target structure(s), data set and algorithm output. Based on the problem fingerprint, users are guided through the process of choosing and applying appropriate validation metrics while being made aware of potential pitfalls. Metrics Reloaded targets image analysis problems that can be interpreted as a classification task at image, object or pixel level, namely image-level classification, object detection, semantic segmentation, and instance segmentation tasks. To improve the user experience, we implemented the framework in the Metrics Reloaded online tool. Following the convergence of ML methodology across application domains, Metrics Reloaded fosters the convergence of validation methodology. Its applicability is demonstrated for various biomedical use cases. © 2022, CC BY.

Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dwMRI) has become the dominant neuroimaging modality for estimating anatomical connectivity (AC). However, such AC estimation is prone to error due to missing connections resulting from crossing fibers and fiber endpoint uncertainty because of insufficient spatial resolution. Endeavors tackling this problem include improving fiber orientation estimation, applying heuristics to extrapolate fiber endpoints, and increasing spatial resolution. Refining fiber orientation estimation and tractography algorithms can only improve AC estimation to a certain extent, since the attainable improvement is constrained by the current limit on spatial resolution. We thus instead propose using matrix completion (MC) to recover missing connections. The underlying assumption is that the missing connections are intrinsically related to the observed entries of the AC matrix. A critical parameter that governs MC performance is the matrix rank. For this, we present a robust strategy that bypasses selection of a specific rank. Further, standard MC algorithms do not constrain the recovered entries to be non-negative, but this condition is necessary for fiber counts. We thus devise a method to interpolate negative entries based on neighborhood information. On synthetic data, our approach is able to accurately recover deleted AC matrix entries. On real data, AC estimated with our approach achieves higher IQ prediction accuracy than the original AC estimates, fiber endpoint extrapolation, and median filtering. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.

International benchmarking competitions have become fundamental for the comparative performance assessment of image analysis methods. However, little attention has been given to investigating what can be learnt from these competitions. Do they really generate scientific progress? What are common and successful participation strategies? What makes a solution superior to a competing method? To address this gap in the literature, we performed a multicenter study with all 80 competitions that were conducted in the scope of IEEE ISBI 2021 and MICCAI 2021. Statistical analyses performed based on comprehensive descriptions of the submitted algorithms linked to their rank as well as the underlying participation strategies revealed common characteristics of winning solutions. These typically include the use of multi-task learning (63%) and/or multi-stage pipelines (61%), and a focus on augmentation (100%), image preprocessing (97%), data curation (79%), and post-processing (66%). The “typical” lead of a winning team is a computer scientist with a doctoral degree, five years of experience in biomedical image analysis, and four years of experience in deep learning. Two core general development strategies stood out for highly-ranked teams: the reflection of the metrics in the method design and the focus on analyzing and handling failure cases. According to the organizers, 43% of the winning algorithms exceeded the state of the art but only 11% completely solved the respective domain problem. The insights of our study could help researchers (1) improve algorithm development strategies when approaching new problems, and (2) focus on open research questions revealed by this work.

While the importance of automatic image analysis is continuously increasing, recent meta-research revealed major flaws with respect to algorithm validation. Performance metrics are particularly key for meaningful, objective, and transparent performance assessment and validation of the used automatic algorithms, but relatively little attention has been given to the practical pitfalls when using specific metrics for a given image analysis task. These are typically related to (1) the disregard of inherent metric properties, such as the behaviour in the presence of class imbalance or small target structures, (2) the disregard of inherent data set properties, such as the non-independence of the test cases, and (3) the disregard of the actual biomedical domain interest that the metrics should reflect. This living dynamically document has the purpose to illustrate important limitations of performance metrics commonly applied in the field of image analysis. In this context, it focuses on biomedical image analysis problems that can be phrased as image-level classification, semantic segmentation, instance segmentation, or object detection task. The current version is based on a Delphi process on metrics conducted by an international consortium of image analysis experts from more than 60 institutions worldwide. © 2021, CC BY.

Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) is essential for stroke diagnosis, treatment decisions, and prognosis. However, image and disease variability hinder the development of generalizable AI algorithms with clinical value. We address this gap by presenting a novel ensemble algorithm derived from the 2022 Ischemic Stroke Lesion Segmentation (ISLES) challenge. ISLES’22 provided 400 patient scans with ischemic stroke from various medical centers, facilitating the development of a wide range of cutting-edge segmentation algorithms by the research community. By assessing them against a hidden test set, we identified strengths, weaknesses, and potential biases. Through collaboration with leading teams, we combined top-performing algorithms into an ensemble model that overcomes the limitations of individual solutions. Our ensemble model combines the individual algorithms’ strengths and achieved superior ischemic lesion detection and segmentation accuracy (median Dice score: 0.82, median lesion-wise F1 score: 0.86) on our internal test set compared to individual algorithms. This accuracy generalized well across diverse image and disease variables. Furthermore, the model excelled in extracting clinical biomarkers like lesion types and affected vascular territories. Notably, in a Turing-like test, neuroradiologists consistently preferred the algorithm’s segmentations over manual expert efforts, highlighting increased comprehensiveness and precision. Validation using a real-world external dataset (N=1686) confirmed the model’s generalizability (median Dice score: 0.82, median lesion-wise F1 score: 0.86). The algorithm’s outputs also demonstrated strong correlations with clinical scores (admission NIHSS and 90-day mRS) on par with or exceeding expert-derived results, underlining its clinical relevance. This study offers two key findings. First, we present an ensemble algorithm that detects and segments ischemic stroke lesions on DWI across diverse scenarios on par with expert (neuro)rad

Functional subnetwork extraction is commonly employed to study the brain’s modular structure. However,reliable extraction from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data remains challenging. As representations of brain networks,brain graph estimates are typically noisy due to the pronounced noise in fMRI data. Also,confounds,such as region size bias,motion artifacts,and signal dropout,introduce regionspecific bias in connectivity,e.g. a node in a signal dropout area tends to display lower connectivity. The traditional approach of global thresholding might thus remove relevant edges that have low connectivity due to confounds,resulting in erroneous subnetwork extraction. In this paper,we present a modularity reinforcement strategy that deals with the above two challenges. Specifically,we propose a local thresholding scheme that accounts for region-specific connectivity bias when pruning noisy edges. From the resulting thresholded graph,we derive a node similarity measure by comparing the adjacency structure of each node,i.e. its connection fingerprint,with that of other nodes. Drawing on the intuition that nodes belonging to the same subnetwork should have similar connection fingerprints,we refine the brain graph with this similarity measure to reinforce its modularity structure. On synthetic data,our strategy achieves higher accuracy in subnetwork extraction compared to using standard brain graph estimates. On real data,subnetworks extracted with our strategy attain higher overlaps with well-established brain systems and higher subnetwork reproducibility across a range of graph densities. Our results thus demonstrate that modularity reinforcement with our strategy provides a clear gain in subnetwork extraction. © Springer International Publishing AG 2016.

Cortical parcellation of the human brain typically serves as a basis for higher-level analyses such as connectivity analysis and investigation of brain network properties. Inferences drawn from such analyses can be significantly confounded if the brain parcels are inaccurate. In this paper, we propose a novel affinity matrix structure based on multiple kernel density estimation for cortical parcellation. Neighborhood functional connectivity is embedded into the affinity matrix, which serves the dual purpose of allowing self-adaptive adjustment of voxel affinity values and providing robustness against noise. The proposed affinity matrix can be used with any parcellation method that takes an affinity matrix as its input. In our validation tests, we apply normalized cuts on our proposed affinity matrix to evaluate performance. On synthetic and real data, we demonstrate that the use of our proposed affinity matrix in lieu of the classical definition better delineates spatially contiguous parcels with higher test-retest reliability and improved inter-subject consistency.
