MedicalRec: Medical recommender system for image classification without retraining
Researchers have developed a transformer-based recommender system called MedicalRec to help select optimal machine learning models for medical image classification tasks. This system aims to reduce the energy consumption and waste associated with the trial-and-error process of model selection. MedicalRec was evaluated on a new dataset, MedicalRec-Bench, which contains over 5,000 records of models tested across various medical imaging categories, achieving a HitRate@100 of 75.5%. The dataset and code are publicly available. AI
