  • Publication number: 20240161293
    Abstract: A multi-label classification method for generating labels annotated on medical images. An initial dataset including medical images and partial input labels is obtained. The partial input labels annotate a labeled part of abnormal features on the medical images. A first multi-label classification model is trained with the initial dataset. Difficulty levels of the medical images in the initial dataset are estimated based on predictions generated by the first multi-label classification model. The initial dataset is divided based on the difficulty levels of the medical images into different subsets. A second multi-label classification model is trained based on subsets with gradually increasing difficulty levels during different curriculum learning rounds. Predicted labels annotated on the medical images are generated about each of the abnormal features based on the second multi-label classification model.
