Label tree semantic losses for rich multi-class medical image segmentation

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2507.15777v3 Announce Type: replace Rich and accurate medical image segmentation is poised to underpin the next generation of AI-defined clinical practice by delineating critical anatomy for pre-operative planning, guiding real-time intra-operative navigation, and ing precise post-operative assessment. However, commonly used learning methods for medical and surgical imaging segmentation tasks penalise all errors equivalently and thus fail to exploit any inter-class semantics in the label space.
