Physical imaging parameter variation drives domain shift.

ABSTRACT: Statistical learning algorithms strongly rely on an oversimplified assumption for optimal performance, that is, source (training) and target (testing) data are independent and identically distributed. Variation in human tissue, physician labeling and physical imaging parameters (PIPs) in the generative process, yield medical image datasets with statistics that render this central assumption false. When deploying models, new examples are often out of distribution with respect to training data, thus, training robust dependable and predictive models is still a challenge in medical imaging with significant accuracy drops common for deployed models. This statistical variation between training and testing data is referred to as domain shift (DS).To the best of our knowledge we provide the first
