From Few-Shot Segmentation to Clinician-in-the-Loop Medical Image Analysis
Few-shot medical image segmentation (FSMIS) seeks to delineate unseen structures from a small support set, but its standard formulation fixes task-defining evidence before inference. This assumption is fragile under acquisition shift, atypical pathology, ambiguous boundaries, and poor image quality. Adding clinician interaction and rapid adaptation is not sufficient: the binding constraint is deciding when asking or changing is warranted. We therefore reframe FSMIS as a three-layer sequential decision problem. First, decidable self-assessment separates errors that a bounded intervention can repair from those that no admissible intervention can reach. We formalize this distinction through ...
