Meta-Learning, or learning to learn, has become increasingly popular in recent years. Instead of building AI systems from scratch for each machine learning task, Meta-Learning constructs computational mechanisms to systematically and efficiently adapt to new tasks. The meta-learning paradigm has great potential to address deep neural networks' fundamental challenges such as intensive data requirement, computationally expensive training, and limited capacity for transfer among tasks.This book provides a concise summary of Meta-Learning theories and their diverse applications in medical imaging and health informatics. It covers the unifying theory of meta-learning and its popular variants such as model-agnostic learning, memory augmentation, prototypical networks, and learning to optimize. The book brings together thought leaders from both machine learning and health informatics fields to discuss the current state of Meta-Learning, its relevance to medical imaging and health informatics, and future directions. First book on applying Meta Learning to medical imaging Pioneers in the field as contributing authors to explain the theory and its development Has GitHub repository consisting of various code examples and documentation to help the audience to set up Meta-Learning algorithms for their applications quickly

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Interpretability of Machine Intelligence in Medical Image Computing, iMIMIC 2020, the Second International Workshop on Medical Image Learning with Less Labels and Imperfect Data, MIL3ID 2020, and the 5th International Workshop on Large-scale Annotation of Biomedical data and Expert Label Synthesis, LABELS 2020, held in conjunction with the 23rd International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2020, in Lima, Peru, in October 2020.The 8 full papers presented at iMIMIC 2020, 11 full papers to MIL3ID 2020, and the 10 full papers presented at LABELS 2020 were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 submissions to iMIMIC, 28 to MIL3ID, and 12 submissions to LABELS. The iMIMIC papers focus on introducing the challenges and opportunities related to the topic of interpretability of machine learning systems in the context of medical imaging and computer assisted intervention. MIL3ID deals with best practices in medical image learning with label scarcity and data imperfection. The LABELS papers present a variety of approaches for dealing with a limited number of labels, from semi-supervised learning to crowdsourcing.
