Deep learning-based medical image segmentation helps assist diagnosis and accelerate the treatment process while the model training usually requires large-scale dense annotation datasets. Weakly semi-supervised medical image segmentation is…

Recently, weakly-supervised image segmentation using weak annotations like scribbles has gained great attention in computer vision and medical image analysis, since such annotations are much easier to obtain compared to time-consuming and…

Semi-supervised learning is of great significance in medical image segmentation by exploiting unlabeled data. Among its strategies, the co-training framework is prominent. However, previous co-training studies predominantly concentrate on…

Universal models for medical image segmentation, such as interactive and in-context learning (ICL) models, offer strong generalization but require extensive annotations. Interactive models need repeated user prompts for each image, while…

Curating a large set of fully annotated training data can be costly, especially for the tasks of medical image segmentation. Scribble, a weaker form of annotation, is more obtainable in practice, but training segmentation models from…
