AI in medicine: new approach for more efficient diagnostics
Researchers from LMU, BIFOLD, and Charité have developed a new AI tool that uses imaging data to also detect less frequent diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. In contrast to conventional models, the new AI only needs training data from common findings to detect deviations.
Publication Highlight – Pruning Clever-Hans strategies
Hidden Clever-Hans effects can undermine the reliability of AI models. The paper “Preemptively pruning Clever-Hans strategies in deep neural networks” introduces a method that corrects biases in neural networks without prior knowledge of faulty features.
