Machine Learning Researcher — Robustness & Domain Shift

MoenoIto

Master's researcher in deep learning, focused on domain-shift robustness and generalization. I build models that stay reliable when the data distribution changes — currently improving cross-hospital robustness of CT-based lung disease classification. Aiming for industrial R&D, with strengths beyond medical imaging.

I am a first-year master's student in the Design Thinking & Science program at the University of Electro-Communications (Shono Lab), specializing in deep learning for distribution-shift robustness. My core research tackles domain shift in CT-based lung disease classification — specifically, robustness to variation in windowing parameters (WW/WL) across hospitals, which silently degrades classifier performance in real clinical deployment. I have compared statistical harmonization, CycleGAN-based translation, and hybrid preprocessing pipelines, and designed windowing-augmentation strategies to close the cross-domain gap. I approach robustness as a general problem rather than a medical-imaging-specific one: my aim is to build models that behave predictably under distribution shift in any industrial setting. I am currently interning at SmartAvatar B.V. (Delft, Netherlands), working on a trust-scoring system for nodes in a distributed AI inference network. I care about the gap between benchmark numbers and real-world reliability, and I want to work where that gap has consequences.

Cross-Hospital Robustness for CT Lung Disease Classification

Master's research on domain-shift robustness. CT windowing parameters (WW/WL) differ across hospitals and silently degrade classifiers at deployment. I compared statistical harmonization, CycleGAN translation, and hybrid preprocessing, and designed σ-class windowing augmentation (selected via an 8-condition ablation). Notably, CycleGAN was technically functional but I chose not to adopt it on clinical-safety grounds. Contribution: a 2D WW/WL robustness landscape visualization. Primary metric: Macro-F1 (kept for the clinical importance of minority classes).
