Abstract

BACKGROUND: The deterministic deep learning models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in various medical image analysis tasks, including nuclei segmentation from histopathology images. The deterministic models focus on improving the model prediction accuracy without assessing the confidence in the predictions.
