Abstract
A pipe-line method for multi-label segmentation of anatomic structures in a medical image using a convolutional neural network trained with a weighted loss function takes into account under—representation of at least one anatomical structure in a ground-truth mask relative to other anatomical structures. Different architectures for the convolutional neural network are described.
