Beyond scalar losses: calibrating segmentation models via gradient vector field surgery

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Region-based loss functions, such as the Dice loss, have established themselves as the de facto standard for highly class- and region-imbalanced segmentation tasks. However, models trained using region-based loss functions are notoriously miscalibrated and typically yield over-confident predictions.

Polynomial Dice Loss for Medical Image Segmentation

Medical image segmentation is a fundamental task for medical image processing and computer-assisted intervention, yet data imbalance and small lesion detection pose significant challenges. Dice Loss, which measures the overlap between predicted and ground truth regions, is widely used to mitigate these issues.

Medical Image Segmentation based on Deep Active Contour and Mean Curvature Loss Function

The paper introduces a Deep Active Contour and Mean Curvature (DACMC) loss function for medical image segmentation. By incorporating mean curvature as a geometric constraint and approximating it with a convolution kernel, the method aims to improve the geometric characterization of segmented regions. Experiments on liver and spleen datasets show that DACMC achieves new state‑of‑the‑art performance across several segmentation benchmarks.

Trustworthy Medical Segmentation: Uncertainty-Aware U-Net Evaluation Under Clinical Image Degradation

arXiv:2607. 22727v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical image segmentation models often report high benchmark accuracy under ideal imaging conditions, yet their failures under clinical degradation can be quiet: sensor noise, patient motion, low- resolution acquisition, and contrast variability may all alter model behavior without producing an obvious warning.
