Background:

Accurate chromosome segmentation is crucial for karyotype analysis, enabling genetic disorder identification.
Current instance segmentation methods often struggle with precise pixel-level classification and can omit correct predictions.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an improved chromosome instance segmentation network using regression correction.
To enhance the accuracy and reduce omissions in chromosome segmentation for karyotype analysis.

Main Methods:

Proposed a novel chromosome instance segmentation network incorporating regression correction.
Implemented two head branches to predict localization and segmentation confidences, refining classification.
Designed a NMS algorithm considering overlapping instance IoU and introduced a K-IoU loss function to penalize mis-segmentation.

Main Results:

The proposed method effectively reduces omissions in predicted boxes and segmentation masks during Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS).
The K-IoU loss function significantly penalizes incorrect segmentations, improving overall accuracy.
Ablation experiments confirmed the effectiveness of the regression correction approach in enhancing chromosome segmentation performance.

Conclusions:

The developed chromosome instance segmentation network based on regression correction significantly improves automatic chromosome segmentation.
This advancement provides a robust foundation for end-to-end karyotype analysis, enhancing diagnostic capabilities.
