Score-Based Ideal Observer Approximation via Denoising Score Matching for Signal-Known-Exactly Detection Tasks
[eess.IV] Autorzy: Weimin Zhou
The Bayesian Ideal Observer (IO) establishes the theoretical upper bound on task performance for binary detection tasks. However, analytical computation of the IO test statistic is generally intractable. Numerical approaches based on Markov-chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, including their recent deep generative model-based extensions, typically require extensive posterior sampling for each test image. Supervised learning has also been investigated to approximate the IO performance. However, such methods are typically trained for a specific detection task and signal and may require retraining when the task or signal changes. The score function, defined as the gradient of the log probability density, encodes the local geometry of the data distribution and is a fundamental quantity in modern score-based generative modeling. This work reformulates the IO test statistic in terms of the scor…
