A new study evaluated the transportability of deep learning models for pediatric chest X-ray analysis across three countries, revealing significant performance degradation when models developed in Guangzhou were applied to datasets from Bangladesh and Vietnam. The research highlighted that standard external evaluation metrics like discrimination are insufficient, as models showed failures in probability calibration and operating-point performance. While techniques like Platt recalibration could recover sensitivity with limited labels, they introduced substantial variability in specificity, indicating a need for more comprehensive evaluation protocols for cross-dataset AI deployment.
