- Abstract:
-
Having ground truth is critical for evaluating segmentation algorithms and finding the ground truth remains a hard problem. In this paper, three methods to estimate the ground truth for skin lesion segmentation using multiple manual results collected from different experts are proposed and compared. We also analyze the manual segmentations and discuss how to use them more effectively. We conclude that a voting policy produces a slightly better ground truth than the other two optimization based approaches. We pro- pose that a better ground truth should take into account different styles of segmentations.
