Quantifying the Impact of Population Shift Across Age and Sex for Abdominal Organ Segmentation [PDF]
arXivDeep learning-based medical image segmentation has seen tremendous progress over the last decade, but there is still relatively little transfer into clinical practice. One of the main barriers is the challenge of domain generalisation, which requires segmentation models to maintain high performance across a wide distribution of image data.
