Publication number: 20190172581Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed for improvement of machine learning systems based on enhanced training data. An example method includes accessing a database storing associations between objects included in medical images and classifications of the objects. A risk assessment model adapted to determine a risk condition for an object is accessed, the assessment based on features of the object. Risk conditions associated with respective objects are determined based on the risk assessment model. A group of objects associated with a first risk condition is identified. An interactive user interface is generated for display, the user interface concurrently displaying images of the group of objects. The interactive user interface enables a user to select subsets of images to be concurrently assigned a user-selected classification.
