New MIL Framework Recovers Coexisting Lesion Evidence in Medical Imaging

Researchers have developed a new framework called DomSet-MIL to address the challenge of identifying coexisting lesions in whole-slide images, where current methods often overlook less severe findings when a dominant diagnosis is present. This label-aware framework aligns annotation mechanisms at both bag and instance levels, utilizing Dominant-Label Censored Likelihood to model reported diagnoses without assuming unreported lesions are absent. Experiments demonstrate that DomSet-MIL not only achieves state-of-the-art performance in dominant-label prediction but also more effectively recovers evidence of secondary, coexisting lesions. AI

IMPACT This research could improve diagnostic accuracy in medical imaging by enabling the detection of multiple coexisting conditions.

    Beyond the Dominant Label: Recovering Coexisting Lesion Evidence with Multiple Instance Learning

    arXiv:2610.22091v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Whole-slide images may contain coexisting lesions, yet weak supervision typically provides only the most severe diagnosis. We formulate this setting as dominant-label multiple instance learning, where the observed label is the max…
