Self-Supervised Vision Transformers for CBCT-Based Detection of Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 08364v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ OA) is a prevalent degenerative condition whose osseous changes are often subtle on cone-beam CT (CBCT), making automated detection challenging.

Comparative Performance and Parameter-Efficient Adaptation of DINOv2 for Active Trachoma Classification

The study evaluates the performance of the DINOv2 visual representation for classifying Trachomatous Inflammation-Follicular (TF) versus normal conjunctival images. Using 1,546 images processed by the OPTED pipeline, the authors compare six pretrained backbones and then test four lightweight adaptation methods on DINOv2 ViT-B/14. The best results—91.66% accuracy, 90.69% macro‑F1, and 96.06% AUC—were achieved with DINOv2 plus Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) and a focal‑plus‑center loss, though ECA’s benefit varied with the loss function.

Integrating Local Detail and Global Context: A Dual-Input Multi-Task Learning Framework for Bone Tumor Diagnosis

The paper introduces a dual‑input, multi‑task learning framework that jointly segments and classifies bone tumors by applying bidirectional cross‑modal attention between a lesion crop and the full radiograph. Using a YOLO‑based detector and a dual‑stream DenseNet121 architecture, the model fuses fine‑grained lesion detail with global anatomical context through a novel cross‑modal attention fusion strategy and hierarchical multi‑scale feature fusion. On the multi‑institutional Bone Tumor X‑ray Radiograph Dataset, the approach outperforms single‑input baselines, achieving a Dice coefficient of 0.896 and a macro‑averaged F1‑score of 0.928, with an AUC of 0.999 for malignant osteosarcoma.

nnFoundation: 3D Foundation Models for Radiology

nnFoundation introduces complementary convolutional and transformer-based 3D foundation models for radiology, trained on 2.1 million CT, MRI, and PET volumes from 125 datasets. The models are evaluated on 108 tasks—including segmentation, detection, classification, report generation, and image retrieval—under domain shift, low-data, and low-compute scenarios, consistently outperforming prior 3D foundation models and training from scratch. Performance varies by task type, with convolutional models excelling at spatially localized tasks and transformer models at global semantic reasoning, and dynamic alignment with dataset characteristics further enhances transferability.

STRADAViT: Self-Supervised Domain Adaptation of Vision Transformer Backbones for Radio Astronomy

STRADAViT is a self‑supervised continued‑pretraining framework that adapts Vision Transformer (ViT) backbones for radio‑astronomy image analysis. It curates mixed‑survey data, generates radio‑astronomy‑aware training views, and initializes encoders with ViT‑MAE, optionally adding register tokens. Evaluations on three morphology benchmarks (MiraBest, LoTSS DR2, and Radio Galaxy Zoo) show that a register‑based two‑stage checkpoint improves linear‑probe Macro‑F1 scores over the ViT‑MAE baseline and enhances fine‑tuning on MiraBest and RGZ DR1, though performance on LoTSS DR2 fine‑tuning declines; these differences are statistically significant.
