Unsupervised Domain Adaptation in Semantic Segmentation Based on Pixel Alignment and Self-Training

Abstract

This paper proposes an unsupervised cross-modality domain adaptation approach based on pixel alignment and self-training. Pixel alignment transfers ceT1 scans to hrT2 modality, helping to reduce domain shift in the training segmentation model. Self-training adapts the decision boundary of the segmentation network to fit the distribution of hrT2 scans. Experiment results show that PAST has outperformed the non-UDA baseline significantly, and it received rank-2 on CrossMoDA validation phase Leaderboard with a mean Dice score of 0.8395.
