frame the cell segmentation problem
as a weakly supervised learning task to encourage models that use limited labelled and many
unlabelled images for cell segmentation as unlabelled images are relatively easy to obtain in
practice. This competition could serve
as an important step toward universal and fully automatic cell image analysis tools, greatly
accelerating the rate of discovery from image-based biological and biomedical research.
