Researchers have developed a new method for training image segmentation models using only summary statistics and weak supervision. This approach aims to reduce the manual effort required from medical experts by learning from data like region area, supplemented by a few pixels indicating the area of interest. Experiments on various medical imaging datasets, including ultrasound and CT scans, show promising results for the technique. AI
