Reproducible Reporting of the Collection and Evaluation of Annotations for Artificial Intelligence Models

• This work advances and demonstrates the utility of a reporting framework for collecting and evaluating annotations of medical images used for training and testing artificial intelligence (AI) models in assisting detection and diagnosis. AI has unique reporting requirements, as shown by the AI extensions to the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) and SPIRIT (Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials) checklists and the proposed AI extensions to the STARD (Standards for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy) and TRIPOD (Transparent Reporting of a multivariable prediction model for Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis) checklists. AI for detection and/or diagnostic image analysis requires complete, reproducible, and transparent reporting of the annotations and metadata used in training and testing datasets. Prior work by Wahab et al. proposed an annotation workflow and quality checklist for computational pathology annotations. In this manuscript, we operationalize this workflow into an evaluable quality checklist that applies to any reader-interpreted medical images, and we demonstrate its use for an annotation effort in digital pathology. We refer to this quality framework as CLEARR-AI: The Collection and Evaluation of Annotations for Reproducible Reporting of Artificial Intelligence.
