PhaseAT: Fourier Phase Adversarial Training for Medical Image Domain Generalization

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.01807v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable clinical deployment of deep medical image models is hindered by distribution shifts across scanners, sites, and acquisition protocols. Existing domain generalization (DG) methods often focus on style or intensity diversification, but they can still leave networks dependent on domain-specific texture correlations. Inspired by evidence that Fourier phase encodes semantic structure, we introduce PhaseAT, a phase-aware adversarial training framework for medical DG. PhaseAT forms phase-perturbed training views in the Fourier domain by iteratively updating a bounded phase perturbation while keeping the amplitude spectrum unchanged, thereby stressing spatial organization under matched appearance statistics. Perturbations are applied only
