Unmasking Biases and Reliability Concerns in Convolutional Neural Networks Analysis of Cancer Pathology Images

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.12445v1 Announce Type: cross Convolutional Neural Networks have shown promising effectiveness in identifying different types of cancer from radiographs. However, the opaque nature of CNNs makes it difficult to fully understand the way they operate, limiting their assessment to empirical evaluation. Here we study the soundness of the standard practices by which CNNs are evaluated for the purpose of cancer pathology.
