Abstract:Currently, the segmentation of Panax notoginseng leaf diseases faces several challenges, including scarce annotated data, high visual similarity among disease categories, and complex lesion boundaries, which collectively limit segmentation accuracy. To address these issues, a multi-stream disturbance consistency constraint semi-supervised segmentation model (MDCC-SSeg) was proposed. Firstly, DINOv2 was introduced as the backbone network. A dual-stream disturbance mechanism was constructed to generate diversified augmented views, and contrastive learning was leveraged to enhance the model's adaptability to complex disease patterns. Secondly, an attention-guided channel complementary dropout module was proposed to dynamically optimize feature decoupling, thereby improving the representation capability of pathological features. Finally, a dynamic thresholding mechanism was introduced to adaptively adjust pseudo-label selection criteria according to data distribution, ensuring the effective utilization of unlabeled data. Experimental results demonstrated that, under the setting of 1/2 labeled data, the proposed MDCC-SSeg achieved a mean intersection over union (mIoU) of 78.45% across four disease categories, including gray mold and anthracnose, outperforming other state-of-the-art segmentation methods such as U2PL, UniMatch, and CorrMatch. Compared with the fully supervised SupBaseline model, MDCC-SSeg achieved an overall improvement of 10.83 percentage points. Specifically, the segmentation accuracy for gray mold reached 86.10%, with an improvement of 18.69 percentage points, while anthracnose achieved 58.95%, improving by 12.08 percentage points. Furthermore, ablation studies and visualization results validated that the proposed method possessed strong feature extraction capability and demonstrated high effectiveness under low-annotation conditions, providing a reliable solution for small-sample segmentation of Panax notoginseng leaf diseases.
