Abstract
This paper describes the ImageCLEF 2019 Concept Detection Task. This is the 3rd edition of the medical caption task, after it was first proposed in ImageCLEF 2017. Concept detection from medical images remains a challenging task. In 2019, the format changed to a single subtask and it is part of the medical tasks, alongside the tuberculosis and visual question and answering tasks. To reduce noisy labels and limit variety, the data set focuses solely on radiology images rather than biomedical figures, extracted from the biomedical open access literature (PubMed Central). The development data consists of 56,629 training and 14,157 validation images, with corresponding Unified Medical Language System (UMLSR) concepts, extracted from the image captions. In 2019 the participation is higher, regarding the number of participating teams as well as the number of submitted runs. Several approaches were used by the teams, mostly deep learning techniques. Long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks (RNN), adversarial auto-encoder, convolutional neural networks (CNN) image encoders and transfer learning-based multi-label classification models were the frequently used approaches. Evaluation uses F1-scores computed per image and averaged across all 10,000 test images.
