Abstract
Abstract Biomedical image classification problem has attracted a lot of attention in medical engineering community and medicine applications. Accurate and automatic classification (eg, normal/abnormal or malignant/benign) has a variety of applications such as automatic decision making and is known to be very challenging. In this research, we address this problem by investigating the effectiveness of Bayesian inference methods for statistical bounded mixture models. Indeed, a novel approach termed as Bayesian learning for bounded generalized Gaussian mixture models is developed. The consideration of bounded mixture models is encouraged by their capability to take into account the nature of the data that is compactly supported. Furthermore, the consideration of Bayesian inference is more attractive compared to frequentist reasoning. In this work, we address main issues related to accurate data classification such as the effective estimation of the model's parameters and the selection of the optimal model complexity. Moreover, the problem of over‐ or under‐fitting is treated by taking into account the uncertainty through introducing prior information about the model's parameters. A comparative study between different Gaussian‐based models is also performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed framework. Experiments have been conducted on challenging biomedical image datasets that involve retinal images for diabetic retinopathy detection and mammograms for breast cancer detection. Obtained results are encouraging and show the benefits of our Bayesian framework.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
