ABSTRACT
Upon remarkable progress in cardiac image segmentation, contemporary studies dedicate to further upgrading model functionality toward perfection, through progressively exploring the sequentially delivered datasets over time by domain incremental learning. Existing works mainly concentrated on addressing the heterogeneous style variations, but overlooked the critical shape variations across domains hidden behind the sub-disease composition discrepancy. In case the updated model catastrophically forgets the sub-diseases that were learned in past domains but are no longer present in the subsequent domains, we proposed a dual enrichment synergistic strategy to incrementally broaden model competence for a growing number of sub-diseases. The data-enriched scheme aims to diversify the shape composition of current training data via displacement-aware shape encoding and decoding, to gradually build up the robustness against cross-domain shape variations. Meanwhile, the model-enriched scheme intends to strengthen model capabilities by progressively appending and consolidating the latest expertise into a dynamically-expanded multi-expert network, to gradually cultivate the generalization ability over style-variated domains. The above two schemes work in synergy to collaboratively upgrade model capabilities in two-pronged manners. We have extensively evaluated our network with the ACDC and M&Ms datasets in single-domain and compound-domain incremental learning settings. Our approach outperformed other competing methods and achieved comparable results to the upper bound.
