Preprocessing Pipeline

1. Quality Filtering

Images were filtered based on pixel intensity statistics from the original 112,120 images:

  • Too dark (mean < 50): 61 images removed, 28 manually cropped (black border removal) and retained
  • Too bright (mean > 195): 52 images removed, 2 manually cropped (white border removal) and retained
  • Low contrast (std < 25 after CLAHE): 28 images removed, 1 retained (00004480_000.png)
  • Total removed: 141 images
  • Total retained: 111,979 images

2. Image Processing (applied to all retained images)

  1. CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization): clipLimit=2.0, tileGridSize=(8,8)
  2. Resize: 224×224 pixels, Bilinear interpolation
  3. Channel: Grayscale → 3-channel RGB (channel replication)
  4. Format: PNG

3. Normalization

Not applied at save time. Apply ImageNet normalization at DataLoader time:

  • mean = [0.485, 0.456, 0.406]
  • std = [0.229, 0.224, 0.225]

4. Train/Test Split

  • Method: Patient ID-based GroupShuffleSplit (85/15)
  • Train: 96,359 images (26,152 patients)
  • Test: 15,620 images (4,616 patients)
  • Patient overlap: 0 (verified)

5. Cross-Validation

  • Method: 5-Fold GroupKFold (Patient-wise) on train set
  • Fold column included in train.csv (values 0–4)
  • Fold-to-fold patient overlap: 0 (verified)

6. Multi-hot Encoding

14 diseases encoded in alphabetical order:

Index Disease
0 Atelectasis
1 Cardiomegaly
2 Consolidation
3 Edema
4 Effusion
5 Emphysema
6 Fibrosis
7 Hernia
8 Infiltration
9 Mass
10 Nodule
11 Pleural_Thickening
12 Pneumonia
13 Pneumothorax

"No Finding" → all zeros [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
