Active learning generally involves querying the most representative samples for human labeling, which has been widely studied in many fields such as image classification and object detection. However, its potential has not been explored in the more complex instance segmentation task that usually has relatively higher annotation cost. In this paper, we propose a novel and principled semi-supervised active learning framework for instance segmentation. Specifically, we present an uncertainty sampling strategy named Triplet Scoring Predictions (TSP) to explicitly incorporate samples ranking clues from classes, bounding boxes and masks. Moreover, we devise a progressive pseudo labeling regime using the above TSP in semi-supervised manner, it can leverage both the labeled and unlabeled data to minimize labeling effort while maximize performance of instance segmentation. Results on medical images datasets demonstrate that the proposed method results in the embodiment of knowledge from available data in a meaningful way. The extensive quantitatively and qualitatively experiments show that, our method can yield the best-performing model with notable less annotation costs, compared with state-of-the-arts.

We propose point-based instance-level annotation, a new form of weak supervision for instance segmentation. It combines the standard bounding box annotation with labeled points that are uniformly sampled inside each bounding box. We show that the exi sting instance segmentation models developed for full mask supervision, like Mask R-CNN, can be seamlessly trained with the point-based annotation without any major modifications. In our experiments, Mask R-CNN models trained on COCO, PASCAL VOC, Cityscapes, and LVIS with only 10 annotated points per object achieve 94%--98% of their fully-supervised performance. The new point-based annotation is approximately 5 times faster to collect than object masks, making high-quality instance segmentation more accessible for new data. Inspired by the new annotation form, we propose a modification to PointRend instance segmentation module. For each object, the new architecture, called Implicit PointRend, generates parameters for a function that makes the final point-level mask prediction. Implicit PointRend is more straightforward and uses a single point-level mask loss. Our experiments show that the new module is more suitable for the proposed point-based supervision.

Recent semi-supervised learning (SSL) methods are commonly based on pseudo labeling. Since the SSL performance is greatly influenced by the quality of pseudo labels, mutual learning has been proposed to effectively suppress the noises in the pseudo s upervision. In this work, we propose robust mutual learning that improves the prior approach in two aspects. First, the vanilla mutual learners suffer from the coupling issue that models may converge to learn homogeneous knowledge. We resolve this issue by introducing mean teachers to generate mutual supervisions so that there is no direct interaction between the two students. We also show that strong data augmentations, model noises and heterogeneous network architectures are essential to alleviate the model coupling. Second, we notice that mutual learning fails to leverage the networks own ability for pseudo label refinement. Therefore, we introduce self-rectification that leverages the internal knowledge and explicitly rectifies the pseudo labels before the mutual teaching. Such self-rectification and mutual teaching collaboratively improve the pseudo label accuracy throughout the learning. The proposed robust mutual learning demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on semantic segmentation in low-data regime.
Accurate and automated gland segmentation on histology tissue images is an essential but challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Despite their prevalence, deep learning models always require a myriad number of densely anno tated training images, which are difficult to obtain due to extensive labor and associated expert costs related to histology image annotations. In this paper, we propose the pairwise relation-based semi-supervised (PRS^2) model for gland segmentation on histology images. This model consists of a segmentation network (S-Net) and a pairwise relation network (PR-Net). The S-Net is trained on labeled data for segmentation, and PR-Net is trained on both labeled and unlabeled data in an unsupervised way to enhance its image representation ability via exploiting the semantic consistency between each pair of images in the feature space. Since both networks share their encoders, the image representation ability learned by PR-Net can be transferred to S-Net to improve its segmentation performance. We also design the object-level Dice loss to address the issues caused by touching glands and combine it with other two loss functions for S-Net. We evaluated our model against five recent methods on the GlaS dataset and three recent methods on the CRAG dataset. Our results not only demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed PR-Net and object-level Dice loss, but also indicate that our PRS^2 model achieves the state-of-the-art gland segmentation performance on both benchmarks.
We present a weakly supervised instance segmentation algorithm based on deep community learning with multiple tasks. This task is formulated as a combination of weakly supervised object detection and semantic segmentation, where individual objects of the same class are identified and segmented separately. We address this problem by designing a unified deep neural network architecture, which has a positive feedback loop of object detection with bounding box regression, instance mask generation, instance segmentation, and feature extraction. Each component of the network makes active interactions with others to improve accuracy, and the end-to-end trainability of our model makes our results more robust and reproducible. The proposed algorithm achieves state-of-the-art performance in the weakly supervised setting without any additional training such as Fast R-CNN and Mask R-CNN on the standard benchmark dataset. The implementation of our algorithm is available on the project webpage: https://cv.snu.ac.kr/research/WSIS_CL.
The application of deep learning to medical image segmentation has been hampered due to the lack of abundant pixel-level annotated data. Few-shot Semantic Segmentation (FSS) is a promising strategy for breaking the deadlock. However, a high-performin g FSS model still requires sufficient pixel-level annotated classes for training to avoid overfitting, which leads to its performance bottleneck in medical image segmentation due to the unmet need for annotations. Thus, semi-supervised FSS for medical images is accordingly proposed to utilize unlabeled data for further performance improvement. Nevertheless, existing semi-supervised FSS methods has two obvious defects: (1) neglecting the relationship between the labeled and unlabeled data; (2) using unlabeled data directly for end-to-end training leads to degenerated representation learning. To address these problems, we propose a novel semi-supervised FSS framework for medical image segmentation. The proposed framework employs Poisson learning for modeling data relationship and propagating supervision signals, and Spatial Consistency Calibration for encouraging the model to learn more coherent representations. In this process, unlabeled samples do not involve in end-to-end training, but provide supervisory information for query image segmentation through graph-based learning. We conduct extensive experiments on three medical image segmentation datasets (i.e. ISIC skin lesion segmentation, abdominal organs segmentation for MRI and abdominal organs segmentation for CT) to demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance and broad applicability of the proposed framework.
