Abstract

In the practical application of medical image analysis, due to the different data distributions of source domain and target domain and the lack of the labels of target domain, domain adaptation for unsupervised cross-domain classification attracts widespread attention. However, current methods take knowledge transfer model and classification model as two separate training stages, which inadequately considers and utilizes the intrinsic information interaction between modules. In this paper, we propose a coherent cooperative learning framework based on transfer learning for unsupervised cross-domain classification. The proposed framework is constructed by two classifiers trained by transfer learning, which can respectively classify images of source domain and target domain, and a Wasserstein CycleGAN for image translation and data augmentation. In the coherent process, all modules are updated in turn, and the data is transferred between different modules to realize the knowledge transfer and collaborative training. The final prediction is obtained by a voting result of two classifiers. Experimental results on three pneumonia databases demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework with diverse backbones.
