Abstract
A method and an apparatus for compensating image segmentation lines are provided. In the method, image segmentation is applied to a medical image captured by using a segmentation model to obtain a segmentation image including at least one segmentation line between multiple layers in the medical image. Convolution computation is then performed on the segmentation image by using a kernel of a trained classification model to predict a location of a next pixel connected to a current pixel in the respective segmentation line within the segmentation image, in which the pixel to be predicted is limited to a neighboring pixel of the current pixel in a prediction direction. The predicted pixels are connected to form a compensated segmentation line for each segmentation line.
