Abstract:

Semi-supervised medical image segmentation (SS-MIS) has gained growing interest for its ability to mitigate costly annotation. However, existing solutions struggle in this field, primarily for neglecting challenging boundary regions and the similarity between target structures. These issues result in imprecise boundary segmentation and unreasonable predictions. To this end, this paper presents a novel SS-MIS framework, integrating Boundary-aware Multi-Task (BMT) strategy and Dynamic Competitive Contrastive Learning (DCCL). BMT employs a boundary-aware multi-task strategy to focus the model on boundary regions, and the extracted boundary features are further integrated with the segmentation features to achieve more precise predictions. Additionally, to promote compact distribution for identical classes in the feature space, DCCL adopts a dynamic competition strategy to generate more reliable feature prototypes. The model then performs contrastive learning by minimizing the distance between its features and the corresponding feature prototypes. This strategy further enhances the model's ability to discriminate between different classes. Extensive experiments on three public datasets, i.e., ACDC, PROMISE12, and BUSI, demonstrate that our method achieves promising results, particularly regarding boundary regions and class discrimination. Specifically, with only 10% labeled data, we achieved the Dice scores of 87.89%, 74.92%, and 65.68% on ACDC, PROMISE12, and BUSI, respectively. These results notably outperform the comparative CPS by 2.36%, 18.64%, and 5.48%, respectively. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/linzk99/BMT-DCCL. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd
