Pixel Wised Lesion Prediction on COVID-19 CT Imagery: A Comparative Analysis of Automated Image Segmentation Architectures

The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.

FOCUS: Benchmarking Retinal Model Generalization from Foundation Vision Encoders to Multimodal LLMs

The paper introduces FOCUS, a cross‑dataset benchmark for retinal fundus models that evaluates vision‑only encoders, vision‑language dual encoders, and multimodal large language models across ten public datasets. It measures ranking performance, calibration, subgroup disparities, and image‑quality robustness for tasks such as diabetic retinopathy and glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Results show no single model family dominates, with vision‑only encoders ranking highest on average, while fine‑tuning improves in‑domain performance but varies in external transfer.
