Researchers have developed a method to improve the accuracy of dermoscopic skin lesion classifiers, particularly when dealing with variations in imaging devices and lighting conditions. By searching for and applying robust data augmentations, they found that photometric transformations and composite policies significantly enhanced out-of-domain generalization. This approach showed a notable increase in performance on held-out datasets, suggesting that augmentations mimicking real-world domain shifts can be more impactful than solely focusing on in-domain accuracy.
