Learning Large Margin Sparse Embeddings for Open Set Medical Diagnosis
Authors:Mingyuan Liu, Lu Xu, Jicong Zhang
Fueled by deep learning, computer-aided diagnosis achieves huge advances. However, out of controlled lab environments, algorithms could face multiple challenges. Open set recognition (OSR), as an important one, states that categories unseen in training could appear in testing. In medical fields, it could derive from incompletely collected training datasets and the constantly emerging new or rare diseases. OSR requires an algorithm to not only correctly classify known classes, but also recognize unknown classes and forward them to experts for further diagnosis. To tackle OSR, we assume that known classes could densely occupy small parts of the embedding space and the remaining sparse regions could be recognized as unknowns. Following it, we propose Open Margin Cosine Loss (OMCL) unifying two mechanisms. The former, called Margin Loss with Adaptive Scale (MLAS), introduces angular margin for reinforcing intra-class compactness and inter-class separability, together with an adaptive scaling factor to strengthen the generalization capacity. The latter, called Open-Space Suppression (OSS), opens the classifier by recognizing sparse embedding space as unknowns using proposed feature space descriptors. Besides, since medical OSR is still a nascent field, two publicly available benchmark datasets are proposed for comparison. Extensive ablation studies and feature visualization demonstrate the effectiveness of each design. Compared with state-of-the-art methods, MLAS achieves superior performances, measured by ACC, AUROC, and OSCR.

Open-Set Domain Adaptation with Visual-Language Foundation Models
Authors:Qing Yu, Go Irie, Kiyoharu Aizawa
Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) has proven to be very effective in transferring knowledge obtained from a source domain with labeled data to a target domain with unlabeled data. Owing to the lack of labeled data in the target domain and the possible presence of unknown classes, open-set domain adaptation (ODA) has emerged as a potential solution to identify these classes during the training phase. Although existing ODA approaches aim to solve the distribution shifts between the source and target domains, most methods fine-tuned ImageNet pre-trained models on the source domain with the adaptation on the target domain. Recent visual-language foundation models (VLFM), such as Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training (CLIP), are robust to many distribution shifts and, therefore, should substantially improve the performance of ODA. In this work, we explore generic ways to adopt CLIP, a popular VLFM, for ODA. We investigate the performance of zero-shot prediction using CLIP, and then propose an entropy optimization strategy to assist the ODA models with the outputs of CLIP. The proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art results on various benchmarks, demonstrating its effectiveness in addressing the ODA problem.

Prototypical Kernel Learning and Open-set Foreground Perception for Generalized Few-shot Semantic Segmentation
Authors:Kai Huang, Feigege Wang, Ye Xi, Yutao Gao
Generalized Few-shot Semantic Segmentation (GFSS) extends Few-shot Semantic Segmentation (FSS) to simultaneously segment unseen classes and seen classes during evaluation. Previous works leverage additional branch or prototypical aggregation to eliminate the constrained setting of FSS. However, representation division and embedding prejudice, which heavily results in poor performance of GFSS, have not been synthetical considered. We address the aforementioned problems by jointing the prototypical kernel learning and open-set foreground perception. Specifically, a group of learnable kernels is proposed to perform segmentation with each kernel in charge of a stuff class. Then, we explore to merge the prototypical learning to the update of base-class kernels, which is consistent with the prototype knowledge aggregation of few-shot novel classes. In addition, a foreground contextual perception module cooperating with conditional bias based inference is adopted to perform class-agnostic as well as open-set foreground detection, thus to mitigate the embedding prejudice and prevent novel targets from being misclassified as background. Moreover, we also adjust our method to the Class Incremental Few-shot Semantic Segmentation (CIFSS) which takes the knowledge of novel classes in a incremental stream. Extensive experiments on PASCAL-5i and COCO-20i datasets demonstrate that our method performs better than previous state-of-the-art.

Generalizable Decision Boundaries: Dualistic Meta-Learning for Open Set Domain Generalization
Authors:Xiran Wang, Jian Zhang, Lei Qi, Yinghuan Shi
Domain generalization (DG) is proposed to deal with the issue of domain shift, which occurs when statistical differences exist between source and target domains. However, most current methods do not account for a common realistic scenario where the source and target domains have different classes. To overcome this deficiency, open set domain generalization (OSDG) then emerges as a more practical setting to recognize unseen classes in unseen domains. An intuitive approach is to use multiple one-vs-all classifiers to define decision boundaries for each class and reject the outliers as unknown. However, the significant class imbalance between positive and negative samples often causes the boundaries biased towards positive ones, resulting in misclassification for known samples in the unseen target domain. In this paper, we propose a novel meta-learning-based framework called dualistic MEta-learning with joint DomaIn-Class matching (MEDIC), which considers gradient matching towards inter-domain and inter-class splits simultaneously to find a generalizable boundary balanced for all tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that MEDIC not only outperforms previous methods in open set scenarios, but also maintains competitive close set generalization ability at the same time. Our code is available at https://github.com/zzwdx/MEDIC.
