Researchers have developed a new deep learning framework for medical image classification that combines self-supervised learning with transfer learning. The approach uses two ConvNeXt-Tiny models, one pre-trained on ImageNet and another using an entropy-guided Masked Autoencoder on medical data, which are then fine-tuned and ensembled. Experiments on four medical imaging datasets showed this ensemble method achieves state-of-the-art results, outperforming individual models and existing techniques. AI
