Methods and systems for training a model labeling two or more organic structures within an image. One method includes receiving a set of training images. The set of training images including a first plurality of images and a second plurality of images. Each of the first plurality of images including a label for each of the two or more organic structures and each of the second plurality of images including a label for only a subset of the two or more organic structures. The method further includes training the model using the first plurality of images, the second plurality of images, and a label merging function mapping a label from the first plurality of images to a label included in the second plurality of images.

Model training using fully and partially-annotated images

Methods and systems for training a model labeling two or more organic structures in an image. One method includes receiving a set of training images including a first plurality of images and a second plurality of images. Each of the first plurality of images including a label for a first subset of the two or more organic structures and each of the second plurality of images including a label for a second subset of the two or more organic structures, the second subset being different than the first subset. The method also includes training the model using the first plurality of images, the second plurality of images, and a label merging function mapping a label included in the first plurality of images to a label included in the second plurality of images.
