Abstract

Colonoscopy images from different centres usually exhibit appearance variations, making the models trained on one domain unable to generalize well to another. To tackle this issue, we propose a novel Task-relevant Feature Replenishment based Network (TRFR-Net) for cross-centre polyp segmentation via retrieving task-relevant knowledge for sufficient discrimination capability with style variations alleviated. Specifically, we first design a domain-invariant feature decomposition (DIFD) module placed after each encoding block to extract domain-shared information for segmentation. Then we develop a task-relevant feature replenishment (TRFR) module to distill informative context from the residual features of each DIFD module and dynamically aggregate these task-relevant parts, providing extra information for generalized segmentation learning. To further bridge the domain gap leveraging structural similarity, we devise a Polyp-aware Adversarial Learning (PPAL) module to align prediction feature distribution, where more emphasis is imposed on the polyp-related alignment. Experimental results on three public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm. The code is available at: https://github.com/CathyS1996/TRFRNet.
