New loss functions improve multi-class semantic segmentation accuracy

Researchers have developed new loss functions for multi-class semantic segmentation that address both instance and class imbalance issues. By extending instance-sensitive losses like blob loss and CC loss to multi-class settings, these methods improve the training signal for rare classes. The proposed techniques, including a one-vs-rest decomposition and integrated inverse-size weighting, demonstrated performance gains on the BraTS-METS 2025 dataset, enhancing metrics such as foreground Dice and Panoptic Quality.
