Researchers develop fair active learning for brain segmentation

Researchers have developed a new active learning framework designed to improve fairness in brain segmentation models. This approach specifically addresses performance disparities across different demographic groups, which standard uncertainty-based methods often overlook. By modulating uncertainty based on group-specific performance and focusing on under-segmented subgroups, the framework significantly reduces performance gaps and enhances equity-scaled performance in resource-constrained settings.
