ChestX-Ray8: Hospital-Scale Chest X-Ray Database and Benchmarks on Weakly-Supervised Classification and Localization of Common Thorax Diseases

TL;DR: The ChestX-ray dataset as discussed by the authors contains 108,948 frontal-view X-ray images of 32,717 unique patients with the text-mined eight disease image labels from the associated radiological reports using natural language processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opportunities and obstacles for deep learning in biology and medicine.

TL;DR: It is found that deep learning has yet to revolutionize biomedicine or definitively resolve any of the most pressing challenges in the field, but promising advances have been made on the prior state of the art.

ChestX-ray8: Hospital-scale Chest X-ray Database and Benchmarks on Weakly-Supervised Classification and Localization of Common Thorax Diseases

TL;DR: A new chest X-rays database, namely ChestX-ray8, is presented, which comprises 108,948 frontal-view X-ray images of 32,717 unique patients with the text-mined eight disease image labels from the associated radiological reports using natural language processing, which is validated using the proposed dataset.

Transfer Learning in Biomedical Natural Language Processing: An Evaluation of BERT and ELMo on Ten Benchmarking Datasets.

TL;DR: The Biomedical Language Understanding Evaluation (BLUE) benchmark is introduced to facilitate research in the development of pre-training language representations in the biomedicine domain and it is found that the BERT model pre-trained on PubMed abstracts and MIMIC-III clinical notes achieves the best results.
