a GenSeg’s in-domain generalization performance compared to baseline methods, including Vanilla (UNet/DeepLab), CTBCT, DCT, and MCF, when used with UNet or DeepLab in segmenting placental vessels, skin lesions, polyps, intraretinal cystoid fluids, foot ulcers, and breast cancer utilizing the FetReg, DermQuest, CVC-Clinic, ICFluid, FUSeg, and BUID datasets. b GenSeg’s in-domain generalization performance compared to baseline methods using a varying number of training examples from the ISIC and JSRT datasets for segmenting skin lesions and lungs, with UNet and DeepLab as the backbone segmentation models. c GenSeg’s out-of-domain generalization performance compared to baseline methods across varying numbers of training examples in segmenting lungs (using examples from JSRT for training, and NLM-SZ and NLM-MC for testing) and skin lesions (using examples from ISIC for training, and DermIS and PH2 for testing), with UNet and DeepLab as the backbone segmentation models. In all panels, bar heights represent the mean, and error bars indicate the standard deviation across three independent runs with different random seeds. Results from individual runs are shown as dot points. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
