The ImageCLEFmed evaluation campaign proposes a framework where research groups can compare case–based retrieval approaches. This paper focuses on the case–based task and adds results of the compound figure separation and modality classification tasks. Several fusion approaches are compared to identify the approaches best adapted to the heterogeneous data of the task. Fusion of visual and textual features is analyzed, demonstrating that the selection of the fusion strategy can improve the best performance on the case–based retrieval task.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess12 Matemáticas::1203 Ciencia de los ordenadores ::1203.17 InformáticaartículoMedical Case–based retrievalMultimodal FusionVisual RerankingImageCLEFmedGIFT
