Beyond Accuracy: Uncertainty-Guided Boundary Refinement for Reliable Biomedical Image Segmentation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 11, 2026 · UTC

Accurate biomedical image segmentation requires not only high global overlap but also reliable delineation of clinically meaningful boundaries. In blood-smear microscopy, cytoplasm and nucleus contours provide the structural basis for downstream morphology analysis; however, deep segmentation models may remain uncertain or overconfident near ambiguous boundary regions even when achieving strong Dice scores. This work proposes a Reliability-Aware Boundary Refinement Network (RABR-Net), a two-stage framework for trustworthy image segmentation. A strong UNet++ EfficientNet-B4 base segmenter first
