Description

Hi!

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Dealing with uncertainty of ground truth seems crucial for medical imaging.

Describe the solution you'd like
An implementation of the Evidencial Fully Convolutional Network ( https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.13544.pdf) would be great !
Which seems to require two layers :

  • One Dempster Shafer Layer
  • One utility layer

It has been successfully applied in medical imaging here (using MONAI as a backend): https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.13293

Best,

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start by reading the Evidential Fully Convolutional Network paper and the linked medical-imaging application, then compare their Dempster-Shafer and utility layers with MONAI's PyTorch-based architecture. No repository files, entry points, or tests are named; done would require an agreed implementation scope and validation of both layers for medical imaging.
