A new study published on arXiv investigates the reliability and precision of confidence intervals (CIs) in medical image analysis. Researchers conducted a large-scale empirical analysis across 24 segmentation and classification tasks, using 19 models per task and various performance metrics and CI methods. The findings highlight that the required sample size for reliable CIs varies significantly, and their behavior is heavily influenced by the choice of performance metric, aggregation strategy, and the specific machine learning problem (segmentation vs. classification). The study aims to provide a decision tree to guide the community in selecting appropriate CI methods for reporting performance uncertainty, paving the way for future consensus guidelines. AI
