Transfer learning has gained attention in medical image analysis due to limited annotated 3D medical datasets for training data-driven deep learning models in the real world. Existing 3D-based methods have transferred the pre-trained models to downstream tasks, which achieved promising results with only a small number of training samples. However, they demand a massive amount of parameters to train the model for 3D medical imaging. In this work, we propose a novel transfer learning framework, called Medical Transformer, that effectively models 3D volumetric images in the form of a sequence of 2D image slices. To make a high-level representation in 3D-form empowering spatial relations better, we take a multi-view approach that leverages plenty of information from the three planes of 3D volume, while providing parameter-efficient training. For building a source model generally applicable to various tasks, we pre-train the model in a self-supervised learning manner for masked encoding vector prediction as a proxy task, using a large-scale normal, healthy brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dataset. Our pre-trained model is evaluated on three downstream tasks: (i) brain disease diagnosis, (ii) brain age prediction, and (iii) brain tumor segmentation, which are actively studied in brain MRI research. The experimental results show that our Medical Transformer outperforms the state-of-the-art transfer learning methods, efficiently reducing the number of parameters up to about 92% for classification and

ADDITIONAL SHARED DECODER ON SIAMESE MUL TI-VIEW ENCODERS FOR LEARNING ACOUSTIC WORD EMBEDDINGS Myunghun Jung, Hyungjun Lim, Jahyun Goo, Y oungmoon Jung, and Hoirin Kim School of Electrical Engineering, KAIST, Daejeon, Republic of Korea ABSTRACT Acoustic word embeddings -- fixed-dimensional vector representations of arbitrary-length words -- have attracted increasing interest in query-by-example spoken term detection. Recently, on the fact that the orthography of text labels partly reflects the phonetic similarity between the words' pronunciation, a multi-view approach has been introduced that jointly learns acoustic and text embeddings. It showed that it is possible to learn discriminative embeddings by designing the objective which takes text labels as well as word segments. In this paper, we propose a network architecture that expands the multi-view approach by combining the Siamese multi-view encoders with a shared decoder network to maximize the effect of the relationship between acoustic and text em-beddings in embedding space. Discriminatively trained with multi-view triplet loss and decoding loss, our proposed approach achieves better performance on acoustic word discrimination task with the WSJ dataset, resulting in 11.1% relative improvement in average precision.

INTRODUCTION Query-by-example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) is the task of retrieving a spoken query from a set of speech utterances. Amazon Echo, Google Home, Apple Siri), the QbE-STD has drawn interest as a technique that can be applied to wake-up or command word detection, search engine, etc.

In this paper we present a method for the unsupervised clustering of high-dimensional binary data, with a special focus on electronic healthcare records. We present a robust and efficient heuristic to face this problem using tensor decomposition. We present the reasons why this approach is preferable for tasks such as clustering patient records, to more commonly used distance-based methods. We run the algorithm on two datasets of healthcare records, obtaining clinically meaningful results.
