SAM-DRIVEN WEAKLY SUPERVISED NODULE SEGMENTATION WITH UNCERTAINTY-AWARE CROSS TEACHING

Automated nodule segmentation is essential for computer-assisted diagnosis in ultrasound images. Nevertheless, most existing methods depend on precise pixel-level annotations by medical professionals, a process that is both costly and labor-intensive. Recently, segmentation foundation models like SAM have shown impressive generalizability on natural images, suggesting their potential as pseudo-labelers.
