Researchers have developed Tree-NET, a novel framework designed to improve the accuracy and efficiency of 2D medical image segmentation. This approach utilizes dual bottleneck supervision, applying feature compression at both the input and output stages of the segmentation process. By operating on reduced-dimension features, Tree-NET significantly cuts down computational costs, reducing FLOPs by up to 13 times and decreasing memory usage without compromising segmentation performance. The framework has demonstrated effectiveness across various backbone models and segmentation tasks, including skin lesion and polyp segmentation. AI
