Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) How can we tackle the lack of available annotated medical image data through Data Augmentation (DA) techniques for accurate computer-assisted diagnosis? To fill the data lack in the real image distribution, we synthesize brain contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance (MR) images---realistic but completely different from the original ones---using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Especially, we exploit Progressive Growing of GANs (PGGANs) to generate original-sized 256 × 256 brain MR images. Our results show that this novel PGGAN-based medical DA method can achieve better performance, when combined with classical DA and GAN-based refinement, in convolutional neural network-based tumor detection and also in other medical imaging tasks.
