Researchers have developed a new model called the Momentum-Anchored Multi-Scale Fusion Network to address class imbalance in chest X-ray classification. This model uses exponential moving averages to stabilize feature representations, preventing bias towards common conditions and improving performance on rare diseases. Tested on the ChestX-ray14 dataset, the method achieved an average AUC of 0.8682, showing significant gains for pathologies like Hernia and Pneumonia. AI
