Contrastive self-supervised learning from 100 million medical images with optional supervision.

Purpose: Building accurate and robust artificial intelligence systems for medical image assessment requires the creation of large sets of annotated training examples. However, constructing such datasets is very costly due to the complex nature of annotation tasks, which often require expert knowledge (e.g.

Tree Pruner: An efficient tool for selecting data from a biased genetic database.

Background: Large databases of genetic data are often biased in their representation. Thus, selection of genetic data with desired properties, such as evolutionary representation or shared genotypes, is problematic. Selection on the basis of epidemiological variables may not achieve the desired properties.
