Interactive Segmentation of Nucleus

Adapted NuClick for generating ground truth for the OCELOT 2023 Challenge

This repository provides the NuClick code (link to original repo) as adapted for generating segmentation ground truth maps for the OCELOT 2023 Challenge.

Idea

NuClick enables nuclei segmentation with the help of a guiding signal. In our case the guiding signal is the cell point annotation from the OCELOT train data. This way we obtain ground truth segmentation maps for the OCELOT 2023 Challenge by using NuClick (link to NuClick paper ).

Requirements

Keras==2.2.4 h5py opencv-python-headless==4.1.2.30 pandas==0.25.1 matplotlib==3.1.1 six tensorflow-gpu==2.4.0 scipy numpy albumentations==0.3.1 scikit-image Pillow==8.0.1

Inference:

Download weights for nucleus segmentation from here and save it inside weights folder:

• Define directories in the config.py: path to annotation csvs: mat_path = '' , path to images: images_path = '' and save_path = ''
• run test_all_images
