Abstract:The instance segmentation of overlapping cells in smear images of epithelial cells is challenging due to the significant overlap and adhesion between the cells' translucent cytoplasm. In this paper, an improved single-stage instance segmentation network called VoVNet-BiFPN-SOLO (VB-SOLO) is proposed to address this problem. The model takes SOLOv2 model as its main frame. Firstly, the backbone network uses Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) to optimize the VoVNetv2 network to increase the information interaction… Show more
