Abstract: Introduced here are diagnostic platforms able to attribute an output produced by a neural network to its input, as well as communicate the relationship between the output and input in a comprehensible manner. Neural networks are increasingly being used for critical tasks, such as detecting the presence/progression of medical conditions. Accordingly, the importance of explaining how these neural networks produce outputs has grown in importance. By explaining how outputs are produced by a neural network, a diagnostic platform can build trust with medical professionals responsible for interpreting the outputs, identify possible modes of neural network failure, and identify the latent variable(s) responsible for producing a given output.

A distortion correction unit makes an assumption of a parameter of the imaging apparatus, takes into account a projection system to make a correction, and adjusts the parameter until an image of the original chart is obtained. A pseudo image drawing unit uses model data of a chart to draw a pseudo captured image. A point-of-view adjustment unit compares the pseudo image and the captured image and adjusts a point-of-view position of a virtual camera according to a difference between positions of markers or intervals of patterns to specify a position of the imaging apparatus.
