New AUCp metric aids abnormality detection model selection

Researchers have introduced AUCp, a new metric designed to improve model selection in abnormality detection tasks, particularly within medical imaging. This metric addresses the challenge of relying on labeled validation data, which is often scarce or time-consuming to acquire for rare diseases. By treating all unannotated test samples as positive and using a traditional AUC calculation, AUCp effectively identifies the optimal model for inference without needing annotated test sets, outperforming conventional metrics in unsupervised and self-supervised learning scenarios.

    AUCp: Pseudo-AUC for Inference Model Selection with Unlabeled Validation Data in Abnormality Detection

    arXiv:2606.08742v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Abnormality detection is a crucial yet challenging task in medical image analysis. Distinguishing abnormalities from normal data by learning to reconstruct normal-only data alleviates the reliance on labeled datasets. However, many …
