Exploring the Transfer Learning Capabilities of CLIP on Domain Generalization for Diabetic Retinopathy
CoOpLVT: Context Optimization with Learnable Visual Tokens
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), a leading cause of vision impairment, requires early detection and treatment. Developing robust AI models for DR classification holds substantial potential, but a key challenge is ensuring their generalization in unfamiliar domains with varying data distributions. To address this, our paper investigates cross-domain generalization, also known as domain generalization (DG), within the context of DR classification. DG, a challenging problem in the medical domain, is complicated by the difficulty of gathering labeled data across different domains, such as patient demographics and disease stages. Some recent studies have shown the effectiveness of using CLIP to handle the DG problem in natural images. In this study, we investigate CLIP’s transfer learning capabilities and its potential for cross-domain generalization in diabetic retinopathy (DR) classification. We carry out comprehensive experiments to assess the efficacy and potential of CLIP in addressing DG for DR classification. Further, we introduce a multi-modal finetuning strategy named Context Optimization with Learnable Visual Tokens (CoOpLVT), which enhances context optimization by conditioning on visual features. Our findings demonstrate that the proposed method increases the F1-score by 1.8% over the baseline, thus underlining its promise for effective DG in DR classification. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/Sanoojan/CLIP-DRDG
Run the following command to install the required conda environment and dependencies:
conda env create --file=environment.ymlDownload the Dataset from APTOS, EyePACS, Messidor, and Messidor-2. Create the data directory structure like this,
├── DATASET_PATH
│ ├── DR
│ │ ├── APTOS
│ │ ├── EyePACS
| | ├── Messidor
| | ├── Messidor2
The pre-trained weights can be accessed here.
We implement our proposed CoOpLVT algorithm as a class in domainbed/algorithms.py:
class Clip_train_prompt_from_image_v2(Algorithm):
"""
CoOpLVT: Context Optimization with Learnable Visual Tokens
"""
def __init__(self, input_shape, num_classes, num_domains, hparams, weights_for_balance):
...There are two important scripts to run the training and evaluate the results: run_train.sh & run_evaluation.sh. By default, we run our experiments for 3 trials and then report the mean and standard deviation of the results. run_train.sh will perform a training process and run_evaluation.sh will give accuracy and f1-score from the experiment. In addition, we provide a sample output folder (COOPLVT_TRAINING_LOGS). In the actual output folder, best models are monitored and saved.
