  Self-Supervised Learning for Early Disease Detection in Low-Label Medical Image Datasets

  By Aditya Patel

  Abstract: Getting reliable labeled data for medical image analysis is genuinely difficult. Radiologists, pathologists, and other specialist clinicians are expensive, slow, and not universally available — particularly in low-resource clinical environments across developing nations. Unlike natural image benchmarks such as ImageNet, which provide millions of meticulously labeled training examples, most publicly accessible medical imaging repositories offer only a few hundred to a few thousand annotated scans. Supervised deep learning models trained …
