摘要
arXiv:2608.03304v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical image classification often suffers from class imbalance due to the inherent disparities in disease incidence. Existing approaches, such as class resampling and loss reweighting, mainly improve learning within the observed feature distribution, but do not explicitly enlarge the latent support region of tail classes. As a result, tail-class representations remain overly compact and are easily encroached upon by head classes, leading to biased decision boundaries. In this work, we propose Recurrent Contrastive Learning (RCL) for imbalanced medical image classification. RCL progressively expands the support region of tail classes by recurrently reusing historical feature states across training phases. Specifically, we adopt DINOv3 with LoRA adapters as the backbone to provide robust feature embeddings.
