Instance Segmentation, which seeks to obtain both class and instance labels for each pixel in the input image, is a challenging task in computer vision. State-of-the-art algorithms often employ two separate stages, the first one generating…

Many practical applications of multi-objective optimization (MOO), including engineering design, autonomous systems, and machine learning, often yield complex Pareto frontiers (e.g., discontinuous, degenerate, or non-convex), which pose…

Segmentation of microscopy images constitutes an ill-posed inverse problem due to measurement noise, weak object boundaries, and limited labeled data. Although deep neural networks provide flexible nonparametric estimators, unconstrained…
