Evaluate utility as well as appearance
FID, PSNR, and SSIM are considered alongside downstream classifier accuracy. That classifier is a proxy for utility, not proof of clinical validity.
Look beyond a convincing image.
An explainable diffusion research pipeline exploring why synthetic medical images succeed or fail.
Conditional diffusion research and explicit evaluation of unsuccessful outcomes.
FID, PSNR, and SSIM are considered alongside downstream classifier accuracy. That classifier is a proxy for utility, not proof of clinical validity.
README-reported run; substantial room for improvement.
Inspect the source ↗A generated pathology image can look plausible while failing to preserve meaningful structure. Image-quality scores alone do not explain what the model learned or where it breaks down.
A conditional UNet diffusion pipeline combines classifier-free guidance and EMA stabilization with Grad-CAM, Integrated Gradients, and downstream classifier evaluation on the PathMNIST benchmark.
A simplified architecture overview. The repository documents the implementation details.
FID, PSNR, and SSIM are considered alongside downstream classifier accuracy. That classifier is a proxy for utility, not proof of clinical validity.
Grad-CAM and Integrated Gradients help examine influential regions and understand failures in generated examples.
The README records low structural fidelity and mode collapse. The work includes a diagnosis of conditioning and noise-schedule issues, rather than a claim of deployment readiness.
README-reported run; substantial room for improvement.
Low structural fidelity in the reported evaluation.
Reported synthetic-image downstream accuracy, not clinical approval.
