用自适应标签修正提升噪声标签下的医学图像分割鲁棒性
Adaptive Label Correction for Robust Medical Image Segmentation with Noisy Labels
- 基于均值教师架构,动态修正多扰动版本的标签差异
- 通过样本不确定性筛选高置信度样本,减少噪声影响
- 在公开数据集上显著优于现有方法,适合标注不洁场景
深度学习在医学图像分析中表现卓越,但其对大量高质量标注数据的依赖限制了应用。尽管噪声标签数据更易获取,直接使用会降低模型性能。为此,我们提出一种基于均值教师的自适应标签修正(ALC)自集成框架,用于处理噪声标签下的医学图像分割。该框架利用均值教师结构保证噪声扰动下的稳定学习,引入自适应标签精炼机制,动态捕捉并加权多个扰动版本间的差异,提升噪声标签质量;同时设计基于样本级不确定性的标签选择算法,优先更新高置信度样本,缓解噪声标注影响。一致性学习用于对齐学生与教师网络的预测,进一步增强模型鲁棒性。在两个公开数据集上的大量实验表明,所提框架有效提升分割性能,充分挖掘均值教师结构优势,能应对挑战性场景,性能媲美当前最优方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Deep learning has shown remarkable success in medical image analysis, but its reliance on large volumes of high-quality labeled data limits its applicability. While noisy labeled data are easier to obtain, directly incorporating them into training can degrade model performance. To address this challenge, we propose a Mean Teacher-based Adaptive Label Correction (ALC) self-ensemble framework for robust medical image segmentation with noisy labels. The framework leverages the Mean Teacher architecture to ensure consistent learning under noise perturbations. It includes an adaptive label refinement mechanism that dynamically captures and weights differences across multiple disturbance versions to enhance the quality of noisy labels. Additionally, a sample-level uncertainty-based label selection algorithm is introduced to prioritize high-confidence samples for network updates, mitigating the impact of noisy annotations. Consistency learning is integrated to align the predictions of the student and teacher networks, further enhancing model robustness. Extensive experiments on two public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework, showing significant improvements in segmentation performance. By fully exploiting the strengths of the Mean Teacher structure, the ALC framework effectively processes noisy labels, adapts to challenging scenarios, and achieves competitive results compared to state-of-the-art methods.
