Abstract
In clinical practice, a desirable medical image segmentation model should be able to learn from sequential training data from multiple sites, as collecting these data together could be difficult due to the storage cost and privacy restriction. However, existing methods often suffer from catastrophic forgetting problem for previous sites when learning from images from a new site. In this paper, we propose a novel comprehensive importance-based selective regularization method for continual segmentation, aiming to mitigate model forgetting by maintaining both shape and reliable semantic knowledge for previous sites. Specifically, we define a comprehensive importance weight for each model parameter, which consists of shape-aware importance and uncertainty-guided semantics-aware importance, by measuring how a segmentation’s shape and reliable semantic information is sensitive to the parameter. When training model on a new site, we adopt a selective regularization scheme that penalizes changes of parameters with high comprehensive importance, avoiding the shape knowledge and reliable semantics related to previous sites being forgotten. We evaluate our method on prostate MRI data sequentially acquired from six institutes. Results show that our method outperforms many continual learning methods for relieving model forgetting issue.

Before each round of continual learning, the encoder component is pretrained and consecutively fine-tuned with the coupled decoder component, by minimizing a reconstruction loss with ground truth mask inputs. It should be frozen [24] in the later to avoid being corrupted by incomplete shape predictions due to model forgetting.
