الوصف: Semantic segmentation is a crucial step to extract quantitative information from medical (and, specifically, radiological) images to aid the diagnostic process, clinical follow-up. and to generate biomarkers for clinical research. In recent years, machine learning algorithms have become the primary tool for this task. However, its real-world performance is heavily reliant on the comprehensiveness of training data. Dafne is the first decentralized, collaborative solution that implements continuously evolving deep learning models exploiting the collective knowledge of the users of the system. In the Dafne workflow, the result of each automated segmentation is refined by the user through an integrated interface, so that the new information is used to continuously expand the training pool via federated incremental learning. The models deployed through Dafne are able to improve their performance over time and to generalize to data types not seen in the training sets, thus becoming a viable and practical solution for real-life medical segmentation tasks.
