Embracing Intra-Class Heterogeneity for Semi-Supervised Medical Image Segmentation: From Diversity to Precision

Due to the scarcity of expert-annotated data, Semi-Supervised Medical Image Segmentation (SSMIS) has emerged as a promising approach. Many anatomical structures in medical images exhibit significant intra-class heterogeneity, with different regions showing heterogeneous intensity patterns within the same structure.
