abstract = {The lack of publicly available ground-truth data has been
identified as the major challenge for transferring recent
developments in deep learning to the biomedical imaging
domain. Though crowdsourcing has enabled annotation of large
scale databases for real world images, its application for
biomedical purposes requires a deeper understanding and
hence, more precise definition of the actual annotation
task. The fact that expert tasks are being outsourced to
non-expert users may lead to noisy annotations introducing
disagreement between users. Despite being a valuable
resource for learning annotation models from crowdsourcing,
conventional machine-learning methods may have difficulties
dealing with noisy annotations during training. In this
manuscript, we present a new concept for learning from
crowds that handle data aggregation directly as part of the
learning process of the convolutional neural network (CNN)
via additional crowdsourcing layer (AggNet). Besides, we
present an experimental study on learning from crowds
designed to answer the following questions. 1) Can deep CNN
be trained with data collected from crowdsourcing? 2) How to
adapt the CNN to train on multiple types of annotation
datasets (ground truth and crowd-based)? 3) How does the
choice of annotation and aggregation affect the accuracy?
Our experimental setup involved Annot8, a self-implemented
web-platform based on Crowdflower API realizing image
annotation tasks for a publicly available biomedical image
database. Our results give valuable insights into the
functionality of deep CNN learning from crowd annotations
and prove the necessity of data aggregation integration.},
