Investigating the key principles in two-step heterogeneous transfer learning for early laryngeal cancer identification by Xinyi Fang, Chak Fong Chong, Kei Long Wong, Marco Simões, Benjamin K. Ng

“…We observe that radial vascular patterns benefit benign classification, whereas twisted and tangled patterns align more with malignant classification. Additionally, to compensate for the absence of twisted patterns in the intermediate domains, we propose the Step-Wise Fine-Tuning (SWFT) technique, guided by the Layer Class Activate Map (LayerCAM) visualization result, getting 20.4% accuracy increases compared to accuracy from THTL’s, even higher than fine-tune all layers.…”
