Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: With the advancement of electron microscopy (EM) imaging technology, neuroscientists can investigate the function of various intracellular organelles, e.g, mitochondria, at nano-scale. Semantic segmentation of electron microscopy (EM) is an essential step to efficiently obtain reliable morphological statistics. Despite the great success achieved using deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), they still produce coarse segmentations with lots of discontinuities and false positives for mitochondria segmentation.
