Abstract

This paper presents a cell image segmentation method by improving the pix2pix. Pix2pix improves the accuracy by competing a generator and a discriminator. The relationship of generator and discriminator is likened as follows. A generator is a fraudster who creates a fake image to fool the discriminator. A discriminator is a police officer who checks the fake image created by the generator. If we increase the number of police officers and different police officers are used, they have different roles and various viewpoints are used to check the fake image. In experiments, we evaluate our method on segmentation problem of cell images. We compared our method with conventional pix2pix using one discriminator. As a result, the accuracy will be improved. Thus, we propose to use multiple different discriminators to improve the segmentation accuracy of pix2pix. We confirmed that our proposed method outperformed conventional pix2pix and pix2pix using multiple same discriminators.
