Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Oral cavity-derived cancer pathological images (OPI) are crucial for diagnosing oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), but existing deep learning methods for OPI segmentation rely heavily on large, accurately labeled datasets, which are labor- and resource-intensive to obtain. This paper presents a semi-supervised segmentation method for OPI to mitigate the limitations of scarce labeled data by leveraging both labeled and unlabeled data.
