A hybrid multi-object segmentation framework with model-based B-splines for microbial single cell analysis [PDF]

open access: yes2022 IEEE 19th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2022
In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach for multi-object microbial cell segmentation. The approach combines an ML-based detection with a geometry-aware variational-based segmentation using B-splines that are parametrized based on a geometric model of the cell shape. The detection is done first using YOLOv5.
