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.

We demonstrate improved performance in the classification of bioelectric data for use in systems such as robotic prosthesis control, by data fusion using low-cost electromyography (EMG) and electroencephalography (EEG) devices. Prosthetic limbs are typically controlled through EMG, and whilst there is a wealth of research into the use of EEG as part of a brain-computer interface (BCI) the cost of EEG equipment commonly prevents this approach from being adopted outside the lab. This study demonstrates as a proof-of-concept that multimodal classification can be achieved by using low-cost EMG and EEG devices in tandem, with statistical decision-level fusion, to a high degree of accuracy. We present multiple fusion methods, including those based on Jensen-Shannon divergence which had not previously been applied to this problem. We report accuracies of up to 99% when merging both signal modalities, improving on the best-case single-mode classification. We hence demonstrate the strengths of combining EMG and EEG in a multimodal classification system that could in future be leveraged as an alternative control mechanism for robotic prostheses.
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, obj...

Millimeter-wave(MMW) radar sensing is one of the most promising technologies to provide safe navigation for autonomous vehicles due to its expected high-resolution imaging capability However, driverless cars have higher request for different environment and light conditions. Therefore, millimetre-wave imaging is of paramount importance for complex load scenario. In this paper, we have built models of pavement pits and bulges and analysed their with differences ways of antennas. A comparison of the imaging performance of experimental systems operating at a MMW radar and a Lidar is presented with the analysis of features for initial image interpretation Experimental images of the complex road surface are made by a 94GHz frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar technique with 3mm wavelength.
