1Productivity

If manual annotation is used for dendritic tissue reconstruction, then the reconstruction process can be performed, but the reconstruction efficiency is low and the reliability of the obtained reconstruction result is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereconstruction efficiencyVSAvoidreliability of reconstruction result
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the manual mechanical annotation process with an automated computer-based segmentation system. The segmentation model automatically processes image data to identify and reconstruct dendritic tissues, eliminating the need for manual annotation while improving both efficiency and reliability of the reconstruction results.

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

This application discloses a method for reconstructing a dendritic tissue in an image performed by a computer device. The method includes: acquiring original image data corresponding to a target image of a target dendritic tissue and corresponding reconstruction reference data determined based on a local reconstruction result of the target dendritic tissue in the target image; applying a target segmentation model to the original image data and the reconstruction reference data to acquire a target segmentation result for indicating a target category of each pixel in the target image, and the target category of any pixel being used for indicating whether the pixel belongs to the target dendritic tissue or not; and reconstructing the target dendritic tissue in the target image based on the target segmentation result to obtain a complete reconstruction result of the target dendritic tissue in the target image.
