Generalized Kullback-Leibler Divergence Loss

arXiv:2503. 08038v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we delve deeper into the Kullback-Leibler (KL) Divergence loss and mathematically prove that it is equivalent to the Decoupled Kullback-Leibler (DKL) Divergence loss that consists of (1) a weighted Mean Square Error (wMSE) loss and (2) a Cross-Entropy loss incorporating soft labels.

Single-Channel Tissue Segmentation via Cross-Modal Distillation from Foundation Models

arXiv:2606. 00928v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multiplexed fluorescence microscopy improves tissue segmentation by providing complementary channels including nuclear (DAPI) and membrane (E-cadherin), that together encode richer spatial context than single-channel imaging alone.
