Abstract
- Purpose
The aim of this study was to clarify the influence of training with a different kind of lesion on the performance of a target model.
Materials and Methods
A total of 310 patients (211 men, 99 women; average age, 47.9±16.1 years) were selected and their panoramic images were used in this study. We created a source model using panoramic radiographs including mandibular radiolucent cyst-like lesions (radicular cyst, dentigerous cyst, odontogenic keratocyst, and ameloblastoma). The model was simulatively transferred and trained on images of Stafne’s bone cavity. A learning model was created using a customized DetectNet built in the Digits version 5.0 (NVIDIA, Santa Clara, CA). Two machines (Machines A and B) with identical specifications were used to simulate transfer learning. A source model was created from the data consisting of ameloblastoma, odontogenic keratocyst, dentigerous cyst, and radicular cyst in Machine A. Thereafter, it was transferred to Machine B and trained on additional data of Stafne’s bone cavity to create target models. To investigate the effect of the number of cases, we created several target models with different numbers of Stafne’s bone cavity cases.
Results
When the Stafne’s bone cavity data were added to the training, both the detection and classification performances for this pathology improved. Even for lesions other than Stafne’s bone cavity, the detection sensitivities tended to increase with the increase in the number of Stafne’s bone cavities.
Conclusion
This study showed that using different lesions for transfer learning improves the performance of the model.
