RESUMO
There are increasing concerns about the bias and fairness of artificial intelligence (AI) models as they are put into clinical practice. Among the steps for implementing machine learning tools into clinical workflow, model development is an important stage where different types of biases can occur. This report focuses on four aspects of model development where such bias may arise: data augmentation, model and loss function, optimizers, and transfer learning. This report emphasizes appropriate considerations and practices that can mitigate biases in radiology AI studies. Keywords: Model, Bias, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Radiology © RSNA, 2022.
RESUMO
The increasing use of machine learning (ML) algorithms in clinical settings raises concerns about bias in ML models. Bias can arise at any step of ML creation, including data handling, model development, and performance evaluation. Potential biases in the ML model can be minimized by implementing these steps correctly. This report focuses on performance evaluation and discusses model fitness, as well as a set of performance evaluation toolboxes: namely, performance metrics, performance interpretation maps, and uncertainty quantification. By discussing the strengths and limitations of each toolbox, our report highlights strategies and considerations to mitigate and detect biases during performance evaluations of radiology artificial intelligence models.
