Abstract
Despite tremendous efforts, it is very challenging to generate a robust model to assist in the accurate quantification assessment of COVID-19 on chest CT images. Due to the nature of blurred boundaries, the supervised segmentation methods usually suffer from annotation biases. To support unbiased lesion localisation and to minimise the labelling costs, we propose a data-driven framework supervised by only image level labels. The framework can explicitly separate potential lesions from original images, with the help of an generative adversarial network and a lesion-specific decoder. Experiments on two COVID-19 datasets demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed framework and its superior performance to several existing methods.
