In this paper, researchers explore ways to improve synthetic data generation for medical imaging using machine learning. They propose a new approach called feature-aligned diffusion, which aligns the intermediate features of a diffusion model with those of an expert system. This leads to improved accuracy and diversity in generated images. The method can be easily integrated into existing pipelines and has been shown to increase generation accuracy by 9% and improve SSIM diversity by ~0.12.

Medical imaging synthetic data generation is important for machine learning applications. Researchers have successfully used fine-tuned diffusion models, but this paper shows how feature-aligned diffusion can make it even better. By aligning features of the model with those of an expert system, accuracy and diversity increase by a little bit (9% and ~0.12). This method works well with existing methods and is easy to use.
