Semantic-aware Random Convolution and Source Matching for Domain Generalization in Medical Image Segmentation

Franz Thaler, Martin Urschler, Mateusz Kozinski +3

We tackle the challenging problem of single-source domain generalization (DG) for medical image segmentation, where we train a network on one domain (e.g., CT) and directly apply i…
