This is because learning features of fine-grained lesions with highly minor differences is very difficult in training deep neural networks. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce Fine-Grained Self-Supervised Learning(FG-SSL) method for classifying subtle lesions in medical images. The proposed method progressively learns the model through hierarchical block such that the cross-correlation between the fine-grained Jigsaw puzzle and regularized original images is close to the identity matrix. We also apply hierarchical block for progressive fine-grained learning, which extracts different information in each step, to supervised learning for discovering subtle differences. Our method does not require an asymmetric model, nor does a negative sampling strategy, and is not sensitive to batch size. We evaluate the proposed fine-grained self-supervised learning method on comprehensive experiments using various medical image recognition datasets. In our experiments, the proposed method performs favorably compared to existing state-of-the-art approaches on the widely-used ISIC2018, APTOS2019, and ISIC2017 datasets.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.05770v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.05770v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"fine-grained-self-supervised-learning-with","repo_url":"https://github.com/kalelpark/FG-SSL","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"image-classification","task_name":"Image Classification"},{"task_slug":"medical-image-classification","task_name":"Medical Image Classification"},{"task_slug":"self-supervised-learning","task_name":"Self-Supervised Learning"},{"task_slug":"image-classification","task_name":"image-classification"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"jigsaw","method_name":"Jigsaw"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
