We introduce a method that allows to automatically segment images into semantically meaningful regions without human supervision. Derived regions are consistent across different images and coincide with human-defined semantic classes on…

Although supervised learning has enabled high performance for image segmentation, it requires a large amount of labeled training data, which can be difficult to obtain in the medical imaging field. Self-supervised learning (SSL) methods…

Annotation is a major hurdle in the semantic segmentation of microscopy images and volumes due to its prerequisite expertise and effort. This work enables the training of semantic segmentation networks on images with only a single point for…

Segmentation and accurate localization of nuclei in histopathological images is a very challenging problem, with most existing approaches adopting a supervised strategy. These methods usually rely on manual annotations that require a lot of…

Recently, deep neural networks have greatly advanced histopathology image segmentation but usually require abundant annotated data. However, due to the gigapixel scale of whole slide images and pathologists' heavy daily workload, obtaining…
